Dog flying through the air like a superhero catching a purple frisbee during an action-packed photoshoot on water.

I wanted to share my dogs in action during disc dog performances, showing you some of my favorite shots! If you can feel the energy released in these images, then I’m truly happy—because that means I’ve fulfilled my purpose, my mission. These dogs are like superheroes, and every picture reveals a glimpse of their soul!

    I often wonder who’s faster and who would win between them, but I’m starting to realize they just want to enjoy running together all the time! And if one is faster, they wait for the other. They’re friends. They’re dogs.

    Curly and furry dogs are so fashionable—and their fur is incredibly soft too! Isn’t that an amazingly fun combo? The result: a Cockapoo! Have you heard of them?

    Do you like dogs in action in disc dog? If they jump correctly, landing on all four legs, I’m totally in love with them! If they just “jump” high in the air, I’m not a big fan of that... and you? What’s your opinion of these amazing dogs?

    I have to say that the Z6 is really a lot of fun and it’s becoming my first choice for all-around pictures.
    Paul is a border terrier, and even if I’m not an expert on the breed, I can say he was super fast and cute at the same time! I love him!

    Dalmatian puppy captured flying through the air in an incredible dog photography shot like a superhero in motion.

    The remake of 101 Dalmatians
    We had to work under the sun and the shadows (at that moment the puppies wanted to play) at the same time in the yard (full of stuff in the background), and I decided not to delete anything from the background but to play with colors only, using the great original bokeh of the lenses. Fortunately, the puppies ran to different points of the yard, which allowed me to have all different backgrounds.
