The boys had their photoshoot today! Riley hid for the first 10 minutes while the photographer was setting up and then they both turned into children of the devil :evillaugh: There was a backdrop which also laid on the floor but the boys decided to go behind it and cause havoc underneath the cloth pouncing on each other :innocent:
The photographer doesn't normally do animals but agreed to do the boys for me so I was really worried they were going to damage his backdrops. In the end we changed to a darker colour so they couldn't see each other through the material but it was a bluey colour so don't know how that's going to complement their grey colour. Think we got some lovely shots of them playing, I get to see the pics in around 10 days and he said it's fine for me to post them on here ;D It lasted about an hour and it was a full on playtime session so they are both fast asleep now :Luv: :Luv: :Luv:
These aren't from the photoshoot but it would be rude of me to start a thread and not post a pic or two!

How on earth can one breathe when the other is laying on top of him that way? Cats so are strange, but so adorable. :Luv:
-
I know! That's quite mild though, sometimes Lukey's head is completely submerged under Riley's body so I have to rescue him! I love the way they sleep together and hope they continue to as they grow up :Luv:

Indeed it would! I can't believe how big they're getting! Well, I suppose I can as that's what happens to little kits :rofl: but they are getting so grown up ;D
Can't wait for the photo shoot pics. Fortunately I have a mate who's into photography and has a good camera so he brings that around sometimes and we try and get some good pics of Mosi (unfortunately said friend isn't used to photographing cats! but at least he has all the equipment so between us we usually get a few nice pics).

A friend came round yesterday who hadn't seen them since they were little and he said they were hand held size kittens now :rofl: They are still my little boys though and always will be :Luv:
-
Jaffa's still my "little boy" even though he's anything but little!
How old are they now? Won't be too long til that trip to the v-e-t ;)
-
ohhh, it's a hard life isn't it?! :rofl: They are gorgeous.
how did you find a photographer that would do cats, Helen?! I'd love to, but is it very very expensive? Mine being dark brown and white, with my ordinary camera I get a lot of naff photos. Burmese are hard to photograph anyhow.

Can't wait until we get to see the 'official' pics ;D

They are 15 weeks today or 3 1/2 months. Compared to proper sized cats they are still little but they do look more cat like rather than kitten like now they are a bit bigger. My vets don't neuter until 6 months so D-day will be around August 19th :evillaugh:

I looked on the internet for pet photpgraphers in my area, I found one who had some amazing pics but it was £75 per hour for the photoshoot itself then each pic was a minimum of £25 (more for bigger pics) unframed. There's no way I could have chosen only one or two pics so I googled for regular photographers close to me. The photographer I used doesn't advertise as a pet photographer but I emailed him asking if he would do the boys and he said yes, very reasonable compared to the other one aswell - it was £100 for an hours shoot at home and that includes five 8 x 6" prints of my choice and I get to keep the CD with all the other images on (at a resolution suitable for 5 x 7 prints). He had backdrops, tripods, lights, and a super duper digital SLR camera with an array of lenses so very professional. He normally does weddings and portraits and when I asked if he'd do animals agin he said 'Possibly' :evillaugh:

Crikey they seem to be growing up quickly mine were very small when they were kitties as they were ill with flu for the frst few months but soon after they they just kept growing and growing ..!!..Think that they still are :wow:
-
They've doubled in size since I got them 5 weeks ago but they're not that big! I took a pic on my phone earlier of Riley next to one of my trainers (size 5) so that gives you an idea of his size. Lukey was just watching the washing machine intently a minute ago so I slipped a trainer next to him too :evillaugh: The third pic is just for luck! They are so cute all the time I just can't resist taking pics of them, I've bought a 2gb card for my phone which takes about 2000 pics so that should last me a few months more :evillaugh:
