Project “Mountain Adventure” for Gold Paw Series

This project was focused on GoldPaw’s new WinterPaw winter jacket and their super-warm Duluth Double Fleece. They wanted snow, beautiful scenery, and a good mix of different looking dogs. We needed the final product to say “happy dogs who were staying warm while having fun with their parents in the chilly, mountain weather.”

We wanted to show a mix of everyday walks and adventure scenery, so our location scouting was going to be F-U-N. We planned an entire day for scouting and ended up finding two perfect locations. We took photos and made a gallery for GoldPaw to view. We agreed on three spots that ended up working out perfectly! Just look at the results above!

HOW WESTWAY WENT WILD FOR GOLD PAW SERIES

> Two days of driving for a full day of location scouting

> Model casting for three dog and parent combos

> Photography shot over two afternoons in two-hour shoots

 

FINAL RESULTS

I absolutely LOVED shooting in the mountains and snow. The scenery was to die for and we lined up three exceptionally well-trained dog models.

P.S. I also loved that Roxy got to come along to Mammoth with us and enjoy some snowtime fun! She rode in her little carriage with ski attachments on the wheels so she could get out and play when she wanted and get pushed the rest of the time. Her legs aren’t what they used to be — 14 years of adventure can do that to a pup — so she deserves to ride around in style for as long as it makes her happy!
