I Did A Photoshoot Called ’12 Dogs Of Christmas’ To Get Into The Holiday Spirit
4Kviews
I’m not a big fan of Christmas, but I wanted to make an effort to feel more festive this December. So to get into the spirit of things, I decided to offer Christmas themed shoots for my clients which turned into quite a thing. I ended up with so many ridiculous portraits of dogs wearing tinsel and Christmas headbands, that there was only one thing to do; a parody of the 12 Days of Christmas.
I present to you, the 12 Dogs of Christmas.
Matching up and rhyming words with drumming, piping, and dancing wasn’t the easiest of tasks, so with tongue fully in cheek here we go.

Very cue and festive. I'd love to see them as Christmas cards
Cool, I'll definitely think about that :)
These pics are lovely.I did expect the 12 days of Christmas to be shown off though. Maybe the 'headline' needs changing to Festive doggies' or something. Was looking forward to a Labrador in a pear tree.
There are all twelve days?
Yep, they're all here :)
Same here only looking for a German or Dutch Shepard.
Most of these are rescue dogs that came through to my studio for shoots, I wasn't specifically photographing dog breeds :)
Challenge accepted ;)
What? No pit bulls? They're the most commonly dumped breed I know. (!00 dogs in the City Pound, 99 were pits.) Then again, I dunno. They'd eat the decorations while you were setting up. (I live with 2...)
I literally sang every verse in my head with the words you used.
