I met up with this playful family in Spring Grove, PA.  They live on and operate a beautiful farm.  It was important to Kristina that she have photographs of her whole family, her dogs are like her kids; of course I can completely relate!  Although Cocoa is a little nervous around new people, he warmed up to us right away.   You can see he's such a sweetie, always on the hunt for the perfect belly rub.  Remi, the Yellow Lab, was a little instigator, which of course I loved.   Russell, the Jack Russell, decided it was the perfect day to dig a moat around the pond, check out his dirty mug.  ;)  Just his natural instincts kicking in I think. 

The morning was unbelievably fun for me, and I hope these photographs give you just a little feel of the how this family spends some of its time together.   I truly love photographing people with their animal companions (if you can't tell - ha). 

and the close up. . .he really was almost underground!
