Pups on 18

We had a great shoot at TPC Sawgrass today. This coming Saturday is National Dog Day so we wanted to help local charity TARAA (The Animal Rescue & Adoption Agency, Inc.) promote upcoming adoptions.

These puppies are so sweet! #nationaldogday #adoptdontshop #TARAA

Check out this video from our shoot on THE PLAYERS Facebook page.

How cute is this?!? 

Oops!

It wasn't easy to get this shot ...

Here's how we did it ... ready ... set ...

GO!

After the shoot, Michela, Evanne & I got to pose with the supermodels.

Evanne looks sooooo happy! I think she needs a puppy!

Laura got in close for a portrait.

We couldn't have done the shoot without our helpful puppy wranglers

Total Solar Eclipse

The weather wasn't very promising an hour before the eclipse.

When the rain stopped, the Creative & Photo Services teams stepped outside with their eclipse glasses.

Click to enlarge & you'll see the sliver of sun. It's hard to believe I could get a pic with my iPhone. We would have had to go north to experience the total solar eclipse.

JR uses one of Rob's many eclipse viewers.

Big Tree Trimming

Annual tree trimming is underway ...

Stella checks out the big pile.

They put some trimmings in my recycling bin. Doh!

Dog Day Afternoon

Google was in such nice light I had to shoot his portrait by the window.

Stella LOVES the fountain Mary got for her.

Tory Playdate

For Stella, there's nothing better than Renee, Greg & Tory's backyard.

Micklers Beach

It's been a long time since Stella & Google have been to the beach. They're so happy!

Concert at Daily's Place

Tonight I went to a triple-header concert with Renee & Greg at the new Daily's Place. It's an amphitheater connected to the south end of Everbank Field.

The real reason I went was to see Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience. They were awesome but the entire audience was bummed that they didn't play Stairway to Heaven.

Foreigner put on a great show as well. Cheap Trick ... not so much.

Welcome Home

Lisa picked me up at JAX & then we picked Stella up at Pet Paradise. On the way home we stopped at Home Goods to get a new squeaky toy (I felt bad that I got all those toys for the Becker pups but nothing new for Stella.).

Last Day at Catalina

It was a great last day at the club. Karen & Paul came to visit. It was great catching up.

Rob's logo on the new Catalina S-well bottle.

This tiki bar by the pool was built for the filming of Gotham at the club last week. I wish I was here for that.

Family Beach Party

It's a beautiful day! Perfect weather for our annual family beach party. Panoramic view from the owner's cabana to Oceanview.

Emily & Jamie swapped babies.

I think Bobby & Howie were confusing Anna.

Jimmy & Tommy made a great dinner ... steak, lamb chops, shrimp & chicken kabobs.

Every summer we have a cake to celebrate everyone's birthday.

Awesome donuts!

Josh, Emily & Maya

Bobby & Patty have fun with Maya.

Sandra & Molly asked me to take their pic with my iPhone. I told them it was too dark & wouldn't look good. Molly told me to turn on my flash. Doh! LOL! It actually came out much better than I expected.

After sunset, everyone headed home. Mom, Hank, Helaine, Norm, Andrea & I went to the bungalow in the parking lot. I could get used to staying here.
