As a photographer, sometimes my own pets are my favorite subjects. Today my beautiful cat, Pigeon, decided to be a willing model.

When I saw her sleeping soundly on the couch beneath our living room window, I couldn’t help but take her portrait. She woke to the sound of my camera focusing, a pop of the flash, and she quickly went back to her state of bliss.
