Flashback Black Friday 2009: Trixie for Banana Republic

In honor of Black Friday, here is Trixie's Black Friday ad for Banana Republic in 2009. Her image was on the Banana Republic website and in all their stores, from giant posters to POS displays, for just one day, that big shopping day after Thanksgiving, promoting cashmere sweaters. Probably my favorite pic of my girl and taken by noted photographer Richard Phibbs. Trixie is CH GraytSky's I'm Not Really A Waitress, CD,RN,AX,OAJ, V, BROM.

Savi in the New Nationally Airing Chase Banking Commercial!!!!

Savi was one of eight dogs hired to co-star with master trainer, Joel Silverman, in a commercial for Chase Banking.  We worked with Joel years ago when he hired Trixie to star in an IAMS commercial and he loved our Weimaraners. Owned, trained and bred by me, Savi, CH Grayhart's Shear Genius, CD,SH,OA,OAJ,NSD,NRD,VX, has star power!

A behind the scenes video was created as we were filming the main commercial and shows more of Savi doing her thing.

The stunning picture above is Trixie, posing in cashmere for Banana Republic, taken by photographer Richard Phibbs, and this ad appeared on the Banana Rebublic website on November 27, 2009, promoting their day after Thanksgiving aka Black Friday sale. 
It was excited when I visited the local Banana Republic store and was quite excited to see this poster of Trixie everywhere! There was a giant size version in the store window and poster sizes located in the men's and women's departments with the cashmere sweaters she was promoting. I am proud of Trixie, our star!

Burberry Girl!

 Appearing on the Nordstrom website, Jam as a Burberry model!  This was her last modeling assignment before she went on maternity leave.

 During the shoot, a cameraman was filming a "behind the scenes" video, which is all the rage for fashion shoots.  Jam and all the other dogs are in that video.

Supermodel Jam - all in a days work

Jam, heading back to the parking garage after a gray-t modeling gig.

We spent the afternoon at a studio in the West Village neighborhood of New York City, for an exciting fashion shoot for Jam.  The ad campaign is for a major fashion retailer.  She was a hit on the set, striking various poses with the model and was dynamic for the video portion of the behind he scenes filming.  The campaign will be out in November and we cannot wait to see the final product.

Jam in the September Chico's Catalog

Supermodel Jam appearing in the newly released Chico's Catalog (September 2013) and the online version too!  Always fun to see our girl in rocking the fashion world!

Jam the Model

Jam on location in Southampton, New York, for an editorial shoot for the fashion magazine, InStyle.  Always nice to mix work with pleasure as it was a treat to hang out on the amazing private beach.

Trixie: She's got the look

Still a beauty at 8 1/2 years old, Trixie is still a working model!  This week, multiple agents called for possible jobs for our girls.  It had a been awhile since we updated Trixie's portfolio and we needed to take new head shots to submit to her agents.  Yes, the girls have agents and like any respectable model, a portfolio of shots to send to potential clients.  It didn't take long to get the perfect shot!

Happy Winter

Happy Winter!  A favorite shot of Savi from Gap Kids 2011 I Want Candy Holiday ad campaign.

Working girl

Savi did a fabulous high fashion editorial photo shoot Friday for a top international fashion magazine.  The studio was located at Chelsea Piers in New York City.   While waiting to be called to set, Savi hung out on the gorgeous outdoor roof deck. We look forward to seeing the spread in the August issue of the magazine.

Our agent Nancy from AllTame and the client's representative.  You can see Savi adores them!

The diva hard at work!

Weims on Display

 The school where I teach has a display cabinet in the lobby that was a gift from the Home & School Association.  The staff was asked to volunteer if they had a collection that they wanted to share and display in the case.  There were displays of Bugles, Beanie Babies and Angels. Finally, it was my turn and of course, my passion is Weimaraners, so this display was created.

 I dedicated one shelf of the display to my show dogs; conformation, agility, obedience and field pictures decorated the shelf along with ribbons.

 The lower shelf showcase our models, Jam, Trixie and Savi, in their ads and books.

 Books and other fun Weimaraner collectables rounded out the display with my prized Best in Futurity Dog trophy.  Many students and staff have found the display quite interesting and love looking at the dogs.

World traveler

 In our romp around the internet, we stumbled upon the long awaited photos from Jam's photoshoot for Tumi luggage.  These were taken last October, at a fabulous beach house in Bridgehamptom, New York.    This house and location has been used for TV shows such as Royal Pains, movies and fundraisers.  It was a tough job, not really, but somebody had to do it.  Jam loved the crew and was only annoyed that she wasn't allowed to run on the beach but rather had to look pretty.  The onsite chef cooked Jam's favorites and she was totally spoiled.

 Jam is featured in two shots, the hallway shot lying on the floor and the other one on the driveway with a model, Maserati and of course, the featured luggage.  This shot is on the Tumi website and the cover photo on their Facebook page.

 The house had incredible beach views and this amazing infinity pool on the second floor deck.  What a fun day!
