Smile Like a Dog

Happy Halloween Week from The Biz

Posted on 26. Oct, 2009 by Mark.

Except for a new ball, nothing really gets my dog, Bizzy, more excited than a new costume. Yep, he loves ‘em but this year we had a hard time picking one. Would it be Count Barkula? Nope, cape got in the way. The old, but reliable pirate outfit? Nah, rumor had it the Cocker Spaniel [...]

One Blinkin’ Cute Dog

Posted on 31. Aug, 2009 by Mark.

It’s not often I meet dogs that give The Biz a run for his money on the cuteness scale but my most recent My Mutt subject, Blinkin’, comes very, very, close on that front and actually does beat the Biz on an ear-to-body-size ratio. Blinkin’ is a Chihuahua-Jack-Russell-Dachshund mix rescued through the Milo Foundation and [...]

Shot of the Week – Working Like a Dog

Posted on 24. Apr, 2009 by Mark.

Sometimes when you’re looking for something to laugh about you don’t need to go much further than your pet. With my dog, Bizzy, humor is a constant thing – pretty much everything he does makes me laugh. Today was no exception.
I was hard at work editing a recent shoot when I heard the distinct sound [...]

Bizzy go Braugh

Posted on 17. Mar, 2009 by Mark.

Can I just say that my dog is awesome? He is so tolerant and patient when dad dresses him for yet another seasonal photo shoot and, between you and me, I think he actually likes it. This year we tried our very first St Paddy’s day shoot and got the Biz’s green on. I’m thinking [...]

Fun at Fort Funston

Posted on 27. Dec, 2008 by Mark.

Nothing like a morning walk at San Francisco’s own dog mecca: Fort Funston. We took the Biz to meet some friends down there and ended up with a good-sized pack of 5 people and 7 dogs. One of them, a newcomer named Fletcher, may actually give Bizzy a run for his money in both the [...]

The Biz in His New Yard

Posted on 18. Aug, 2008 by Mark.

Those of you who know my work understand I don’t really spend a whole lot of time in a traditional studio. That said, my wise and clever wife recently planted the suggestion of reconfiguring our backyard into an outdoor studio that I could invite clients to. Wow, talk about your great ideas.
Only one problem
Since we [...]

I’ve been Bizzy

Posted on 26. Jul, 2008 by Mark.

Apologies to all my regular readers for the infrequent posting these past few weeks. Between a bunch of private sessions, My Mutt shoots, weddings (we’ve had a big uptick in those here in San Francisco since the state supreme court ruling) and my now-regular gig on Dogster’s blog I’ve barely had enough time to download [...]

My new toy

Posted on 05. Jul, 2008 by Mark.

For me the only thing more exciting than getting a new camera is getting a new lens. I’ve had my eye on the canon 16-35 2.8L for a while now and just took the plunge. I tested it out on my office manager and assistant, Bizzy, a couple of days ago and all I kept [...]

I Love My Boy

I just can’t help myself. Been meaning to post this shot of the Biz for weeks now. Does this say unbridled joy or what? Man, he loves to play

That’s Just Wacky

Posted on 24. Feb, 2008 by Mark Rogers.

I love my dog! I can’t tell you how many times a day I look over at him and just start laughing. Today he decided the Oscars were drawing too much attention away from him and put on his own show while we tried to keep watching the show on TV. Guess who won? You [...]

Living in the Moment

Posted on 17. Feb, 2008 by Mark Rogers.

Sometimes when life seems really complicated and stressful  I take my dog to the park and just watch him. No matter the conditions (though he seems to prefer the messier ones) he always enjoys himself and for that time. Playing is his only focus for that hour.

Yes, he’s a dog and that’s what they do [...]
