A montage is a unique portrait that combines several poses (of the same dog) which usually depict special occasions or moments during his/her life. In this case, the client chose 5 of her favorite photographs but one may choose 2, 3 ore even 4 photos should they wish.  This portrait was commissioned from a client in NB, Canada as a gift for their spouse at Christmas.   A note from the client: I received Sadie's portrait this morning. What a pleasant surprise that was! It is absolutely beautiful. I can't tell you how much this means to me.  I know when my husband sees it, he will shed some tears, but it will mean the world to him.  I can't wait to see his face when he sees it.  Sadie was our little girl and we'll be able to look at her beautiful face hanging on our wall and always cherish the great memories we have of her. I am so pleased and happy to have it.  This has been a wonderful experience, my first of having any type of portrait done, but most likely not my last. Thank you for making a sad, difficult time a bit easier by letting me share some of our special moments with our special girl and for capturing them so beautifully on paper for us. You are blessed with a special gift, one that gives joy and lasting memories.
