Gorgeous, and such lovely different colouring.:)
 
The light / expressions on the last two are lovely. The backgrounds are a bit distracting on the first few though - wonky fences and windows. It is difficult when you are in the back garden to not have a dodgy background - I think this is why the closer head shots are more successful.
 
Yes very true, don't matter what way I angle there is something distracting.
Thankyou for your comment.
 
You've done well to pick the backlighting, it's making the best of nature.

The problem is that it can make exposure difficult, on a few of these the exposure on the faces has suffered. A tiny pop of fill flash would be easier to manage than a reflector with the dogs, although a bit of shadow lifting in post might get you close.

As above though, the biggest issue is the distracting backgrounds, get them out for a walk somewhere with cleaner backgrounds. As with most photography, the success is in the planning.
