Setting up a decorated tree at the top of a mountain isn't as easy as it looks...

One fact of which you may not be aware: we shoot ahead of season - fall in the spring, spring in the fall. The Holiday book is shot from May to June. It is always something I have to plan for, making the season seem believable. Fortunately, at high elevations (knock-on-wood) the snow remains late in the season, perfect for the festive feeling we need.

Rizzo makes it look easy, relaxing while shooting the Holiday catalog

As the weather becomes colder and the end of the year draws near, we prepare for another festive holiday season.

This month, we would like to introduce you to our good friend, Rizzo. She is one of our featured canine models. You can see Rizzo in this year's Holiday catalog, as well as on the website. Rizzo is a lot of fun, and she was a joy to have at the shoot.
