Hi - we have a new product called HayTag (long range, solar powered wireless pet ID) and are targeting females but I haven't seen too many panoramic photos of women walking dogs. We're especially partial to high res images of pretty women walking golden retrievers, labrador retrievers, and west highland terriers.
Thanks!

Maybe this is something close. Maybe not.

   Posted Sun Jan 6 2:08AM | There are several of a woman with border collie here http://www.istockphoto.com/search/portfolio/935311/?facets=%7B%2225%22%3A%226%22%7D#ef60d78
Too close probably but I could shoot this pair again in March if your project is ongoing? Dog's a Great Pyrenees but she's a great actress and she's willing to pretend to be a golden retriever.

And here's a Westie (Western Highland terrier) who thinks that walking is over-rated, anyway:

This one certainly needs ID! |

Hey (Hay?) Pat, I saw your video and I would like to shoot some images useful to your campaign ... what is your timeline and concept for how the image would be used ... It is winter where I live but I travel to warm places often ... do you have a preference for the clothing, time of year, etc.?
ETA: I do have access to Goldens, but this model and this German Short Haired Pointer could be shot walking or jogging ...

   Posted Mon Jan 7 12:45AM | What a great product! Will it be available in Europe (France)? You're looking for dog=walking off-lead, to go with the idea of being confident even if your dog runs away? |

Will a pretty blond walking a Minature Schnauzer work? This is the only one I have in a horizontal composition, but there are several verticals linked to the above image. |

It's not pano, just want to show you another option.

/Hi everyone - sorry for not checking back in sooner and thanks for all the replies and images you posted. I'll try to answer some of the questions in this email:
- cold weather (snow, etc.) shots are fine this time of year, however we are launching in the Spring so will probably be looking for images that are *warmer* as we get closer to launch, but this doesn't prevent us from using the cold weather images again as we get closer to the holidays. I have gotten several emails from future users who say they lost their dog in the winter probably because scents are more difficult to pick up for the dogs in the snow and they more easily lose their way home, etc.
- @jeangill the shots with the Great Pyrenees are great, as is the model. Really like the one where she is resting her head on the dog's shoulder. If we could get a more panoramic shot we could try it on our homepage or across another page. The white hair on the dog should show up well on the page.
- @1morecreative the venue with the blonde and the schnauzer is awesome. I like how she is looking up towards the tops of the trees. Will try it out --- dog may be a bit on the smaller side, tho.
- @tomprout: it's a fantastic shot. Both the dog and the model work great. The eyes of both have a ton of life in them and I think customers might respond well. I would love to see more shots if you can provide them. The timeline for the official launch of HayTag is May 1, but we are taking pre-orders now and generally getting things ramped up for launch.
- General comment on dog + beach scenes. These can be very powerful but we probably need to be able to see the face of the women in the shots, and ideally the face of the dog as well.
ALSO - the ideal image size we are looking for is 1000x234.
Finally, - we have a beta version of our new online store up and running which might help visualize a bit: www.hayt.ag
Thanks!!

I have one for your consideration:
|
   Posted Thu Jan 24 4:55AM | Thanks for the feedback - will try for a re-shoot by the end of February with those specs in mind. |
 Posted Fri Jan 25 6:40AM | Are you looking for pretty younger or older women? |
Posted Wed Jan 30 3:48PM | there are two (initial) sets of women that we'd like to show: 25-35 is the primary group, and also 45-55. So depending on your frame of reference, these might be either "older" or "younger" ...  |

Alternatively, it would be possible to extend the image you like by adding the lavender scenery from a shot like this in Photoshop to create the size you want. Or combine a panoramic background you like with a woman and dog that you like. Hope soemthing works for you.

How about a pretty girl walking 3 dogs in a springtime forest. I could extend the canvas if need be.
