Hi friends,

The gallery from the Wake the Dock trial at Brown Dog University is live!

As many of you know, I have had a slew of tech troubles since the trial and had to start completely over on editing and uploading when my new (very slow) computer arrived.

I typically aim to get photos out within 2-3 weeks of an event, and cannot apologize enough for how long these photos took to publish. As a thank you, all photos from this event are available to download for free.

Please feel free to share on social media & tag me Strong Eyed Studios and Brown Dog University so I can repost! Thank you for your support, trust and patience in me as I worked to finish these photos.

I am now working through the photos from BDU’s 10th Annual Summer Luau and will be shooting this weekend’s Disney Splash. I am expecting Luau photos to be done within a week, and then will get Disney photos finished ASAP. I hope to see you poolside this weekend!

If you would like to pay for any photos, I am accepting donations towards a new (faster) computer at any of the payment methods below:

Venmo: @ strongeyedstudios (3430 last 4 #)

CashApp: $ StrongEyedStudios

PayPal: http://paypal.me/mshawphotography

As always, it is an honor to have the opportunity to capture moments between you and your dogs and I hope that you enjoy the photos!

Thank you,

Max Shaw

📸 Photo Update 📸

The good news is I got a new computer & am slowly working on getting photos uploaded from the following events:
RiverRAT Barn Hunt Apr 24-26
BDU Wake the Dock
BDU Luau

The bad news is that the new computer is slow & won’t work for what I need. I am going to replace it after this round is done, which is taking much longer than expected: editing, exporting and uploading are all taking 10x longer on this machine and I am so frustrated.

Photos fromRiverRat and Wake the Dock will be heavily discounted as a thank you for your patience.

📸 UPDATE 📸

ICYMI: I am still working on RiverRat Barn Hunt photos and BDUs Wake the Dock photos. My computer is officially kaput and I am waiting on its replacement, then I will be able to finish posting photos from those events in the next week or two.
As a thank you, I’ll be giving away some freebies and photos will be discounted! I am so sorry to everyone waiting on photos and will post as soon as they are ready.
So far this event season, Me: 0 Technology: 1 🙃🫠

I am back up at for the next week photographing our big Memorial Day event. Check out the admin shed for info on how to get the early bird discount. I hope to see you there!

Enjoy these photos of Extra at the beach - which reminded me why I hate editing with LR Mobile on my phone so much 😂

Some late night studio practice ft our whippet puppy, Extra!

Extra came home a few months ago and made himself right at home. He’s related so many of my favorite whippets and I see so much of them in him as he matures. He’s charmed all of us & spends most of his day playing bitey face and napping with his Aussie friends.

We have a lot of fun plans for this dude & adore having him around. He is silly, confident, outgoing and sweet and just a good buddy to have around 💖

A couple of my favorites from our special Valentines Day hike with 💖🤩 I love seeing their bond shine through these photos! Baby Fleetwood has gotten so big since I last saw her & she is all spice and drive! Extra charmed both her & Kai and I can’t wait for more time out in the woods with my friends this summer 😍
