101 Salivations: For the Love of Dogs

By Rachael Hale

Book Overview

Award-winning photographer Rachael Hale's 101 SALIVATIONS is a delightful collection of 101 dog portraits that will become a must-have for dog lovers everywhere. Rachael Hale's signature style catches the eye of everyone who comes across it. Featuring 101 color photographs of Chihuahuas, Great Danes, and everything in between, 101 SALIVATIONS presents dogs in all sorts of wonderful poses that bring out their most endearing characteristics. Rachael's secret to capturing a dog's soul is to focus on his eyes-whether they are wide and shining, or heavy-lidded, in the throes of slumber. Within this book we can see the soul of our own best buddies staring back at us. The book is peppered with humorous and touching quotations from well-known authors such as A.A. Milne and Fran Lebowitz. Following in the paw prints of 101 SALIVATIONS, Rachael Hale's 101 CATACLYSMS is a charming and playful tribute to the world's most popular pet. This collection features 101 images of magnificent felines. Hale's special rapport with animals has allowed her to capture the essence of her subjects. You will see it in the bald-faced cheekiness of Hilander, the sphinx; in the sassiness of Puffy, the Persian ball of fluff; and in the playfulness of Yabba Dabba Doo, the British shorthair. 101 CATACLYSMS also contains quotations from well-known personalities-such as James Herriot's ''Cats are the connoisseurs of comfort''-that will tickle the reader as they peruse this gem of a book.

Customer Reviews

Great Coffee Table Book

We have given this delightful book to family members and friends and everyone has loved it. The photographs are wonderful! The author/photographer really captures her subjects very well. It is a great gift for anyone who loves dogs.

Great book for dog lovers

I bought this book and 101 Cataclysms for my mom for Christmas. She loves both of them and looks through them regularly.

Work of Art!

I absolutely love this book. The photos are extraordinary and the book's setup is really nice. For the price, I was expecting a flimsy paperback but it's hardcover and heavy like a true photography book. I especially love how, at the end of the book, there's some info about each of the dogs in the book. You can tell that the author really cared about the dogs and was really creative in getting her shots.

A photog and a dog lover and I LOVE THIS BOOK!

I am a professional photographer and I am a confessed dog lover. Even if I wasn't a dog lover I have to admit this book is full of great imagery. As photography goes, the less is more rule applies and allows you to see the portraits for what they are: portraits of some great personalities.If you or someone you know or love are a dog lover, then get this book!

A GREAT BOOK FOR DOG LOVERS!
