I went to college in northwestern Pennsylvania, and its quiet beauty shines all through the year. Each season is distinctive. Unlike in some other parts of the country, summers there are refreshingly green. This June, Michaela Kessler Photography held mini pet portrait sessions to raise funds for a local cat cafe. Michaela found the perfect location and Harper, the English Cocker Spaniel, is gorgeous! 
From Michaela: “Harper is such a sweetheart. She did such a great job during this session. She is an English Cocker Spaniel that is loved so much by her whole family. All of them claim to ‘share custody’ of her!”
From Harper’s family: “Harper loves playing soccer with her ball and chasing squirrels in the woods. She hunts pheasants with her Dad in her free time as well! 
Harper also loves her brother Toby who is a rescue cat from the Crawford County Humane Society and wanted to support the rescue cats at Purrista Cafe.”

I mean, my big takeaway from this is that your blog needs far, far more photos of Harper. Your dog is crazy cute.

I love cocker spaniels! My grandma had a cockapoo named Sugar Bear when I was little and she was so sweet. Thanks for my daily dose of cute!
That is such a beautiful dog. I had a cocker spaniel growing up and he was such a great dog. I really love these photos. They are so gorgeous.
Michaela did an amazing job with the photography shots. Harper looks so adorable.

I love Cocker Spaniels. And I absolutely adore how you photograph this baby. The coloring is genious.
I adore that last photography. Dogs just want to have fun – and this is perfect.
I like the running photo too, showing an active dog out and about always brings back memories of happy times.
Harper is adorable and the photos are amazing – I always love reading your blog
Harper sounds like such a sweetie! We get professional Christmas photos done with the dogs each year – they’re so fun! I would really like to get photos done of the pups in the fall too.
Beautiful photos of a beautiful dog. I just wanted to reach through the screen and give Harper a snuggle. I love that these pictures capture her in such a natural light – playing and having fun the way that pups love to do.
Harper is beautiful as are those portraits of her! What a wonderful idea for a fundraiser too! Help kitties in need and get beautiful portraits taken! A definite win-win!
Harper really stood out with that beautiful green background.
