Wedding Dogs - Elizabeth Messina

We love the photography by Elizabeth Messina and this beautiful wedding - complete with a very smart little Bichon Frise is glorious! Dressed in a classic shirt collar, complete with a very sophisticated little black bow tie. This little guy looked very dapper and as you will see from the photographs he may have felt it too...

Wedding Dogs - Ben Q. Photography

We fell in love with these absolutely sunning bridal portraits by Ben Q. Photography as well as Macy the adorable little Schnauzer featured with her human Mom / Owner, Andrea. Macy has long eyelashes and this cute little lady didn't need much to make her look the part of a beautiful wedding dog!

She simply wore a bejeweled collar, keeping it classy and sophisticated, just like Andrea. We love that Andrea chose to include her pet dog and Fur Baby in some of her photographs...

Wedding Dogs - Justin & Mary Marantz Photography

Today we share the simple and stylish wedding of Mel & Geoff which included their adorable little Pug as their wedding dog! They married in New York City with just the three of them present along with their photographers Justin & Mary Marantz who captured the special moments of the day. We love the intimate photos of Mel and Geoff getting ready together and decorating their little Pug with ribbons for the occasion.

This wedding really reminded us of Carrie Bradshaw and John James Preston (aka Mr. Big) of Sex and the City - the sophisticated, elegant, skirt suit Mel wore and those Carrie worthy wedding shoes as well as it being a very quiet, intimate wedding...

Wedding Dogs - Jessica Burke Photography

We absolutely love wedding dogs! They hold such a special place in our hearts and families so why not include your pet dog in your wedding! A lovely example of this is the beautiful, sunny, wedding of Katie & Travis featuring their lovely little Frenchie, Cooper. Captured wonderfully by Jessica Burke Photography, you will see Cooper escorting members of the wedding party down the ailse, hanging out looking handsome with the groomsmen and of course enjoying a cuddle with his wonderful parents! See his wedding day look here too...

Just Joey - Welcome!

Happy Valentine's Day & welcome to our first ever post and the launch of Itty Bitty & Fluffy! It has been an idea, brainchild & dream of ours to create this for some time now and we are thrilled that it is here!

Why did we want to create Itty Bitty & Fluffy?
Well, we both work as lifestyle photographers ourselves  as well as being graphic designers & in our photography work we love to tell beautiful stories through beautiful pictures and pets are indeed part of a family's story! We adore the work of so many fantastic pet photographers from
all over the world and we wanted a place to share their work.

Pet photography captures the personality of pets because they are not shy of the camera (unlike ourselves) and how amazing it is to see so many families wanting their pet involved in their family sessions, newly engaged couples including their fluffy friend in their engagement sessions and something we really love is that so many couples include their pets in their weddings now too. All of these are captured wonderfully by both pet and lifestyle photographers around the world. Their pictures inspire us, they give us moments that show us how loved pets are and that is something we are very passionate about indeed.

Being graphic designers too we enjoyed the opportunity to design the blog ourselves and we aim to bring our design edge & tastes to Itty Bitty & Fluffy by sharing stylish finds for all the style conscious pet owners & pet lovers out there.

As well as being inspired by pet & lifestyle photography we were inspired by our volunteer work for abandoned & unwanted animals. In our spare time we would walk dogs at a sanctuary which was filled to the brim. We learnt about different dogs & their stories, we met people who rescued them and gave them the forever homes they had always deserved and it is something we have become very passionate about. So many lovely people out there adopt rescue dogs and they have inspiring stories to share - which we hope to do.

The most profound inspiration behind the blog was adopting our own rescue dog, Joey. To read his story head on over to the Just Joey page. He is quite the character and we will be sharing his stories from time to time too!

We hope you take a look around the blog, read more about both the blog and ourselves here, and we cannot wait to share all the fantastic photography and finds people have sent us! If you are a professional photographer and have something related to share, pop by our submissions page here for our guidelines & submission requirements.
