Barkelona Day 3

Our photo shoot on our 3rd day of Barkelona was in the evening in a small seaside town called Sitges. Check out these google images if you’re not familiar with the town. I loved it and could’ve spent several days hanging out here. It was about a 15 minute ride from our villa in Olivella.

When we arrived in Sitges we were paired up into smaller groups and I was with Joanne Brown of Big Bernese Photography.  Joanne and I got along great during the workshop and we stay in touch and talk on the phone frequently.  She and I are both starting up our photography businesses so we have a lot of discussions about our business models, pricing and most recently on website development. It is so nice to have someone I like and respect to bounce ideas off of and someone who is going through a lot of the same stuff I am right now.

Shortly after arriving in Sitges, the dogs we would be photographing joined us. I was immediately drawn to the chow named Bimbo and the photo location in this first shot was the suggestion of Kaylee Greer of Dog Breath Photography. We’d actually spent about 30 minutes photographing him, then we photographed another dog.  We’d photographed a dachshund in this doorway and Kaylee said, we need a taller dog. Bimbo was walking by with his owners and we asked if he’d model for us some more.

I mean really…. a 6 month old chow puppy named Bimbo in Sitges Spain AND a head tilt!!

Every time I see these photos of Bimbo, I get emotional. It brings back all of the emotion from this trip: the memories, the people, the food and the incredible experience that it was. I miss Spain the most it seems when I look at photos of him. Perhaps because I used to have a chow named Bear and I get the same feelings every time I think of Bear.

I miss this dog. I miss this town. I miss all the beautiful doors in this town…. it was amazing. I hope to make it back some day. BARKography in Sitges…. omg!!!!
