Annelise and Quinn

This is a large format portrait of my middle daughter Annelise, and the family dog Quinn.  Annelise was about two years old at the time, and Quinn was just a pup.  This was back in 2007.  Annelise is now 15, and Quinn has reached the ripe old age of 14.  Must be close to 100 in dog years...!
I shot this with an 8x10 view camera on Ilford HP5 film.  Illumination was with two studio strobes bounced off of umbrellas.  I used a 450mm lens, which is approximately equivalent to a 75mm lens in 135 film format.  Development was with Kodak D-76 developer, 1:1, for 11:00 minutes at 20C.
I look back at this old photographs and I'm just amazed at how much life has changed...!
