Photo shoot in Los Feliz

A photographer from a local magazine, Discover Hollywood, used Randy's LA home as a backdrop this week, shooting a period piece for the December issue. Randy's not sure what the feature is about, but it will probably reference some historic aspects of this storied neighborhood.
That's Dora in the Radio Flyer.
The cover article seems to be about the Walt Disney aspects of Los Feliz. He started his company in the neighborhood, and conceived "Mickey Mouse" in a garage a few blocks away. The female model seemed to be playing "Snow White" and she apparently is living with "Prince Charming" in Randy's house. We'll just wait for the magazine to see.
The long-haired dachshund "model," Dora, was amazing, Randy said. She does a lot of work in the industry, and always hits her "mark," according to the husband and wife dog wranglers, who own her. For two and a half hours, she never "complained," Randy said.
The magazine is distributed in the Los Feliz/Hollywood area of Los Angeles.
Looking closely at the photos, we think Dora resembles our Birdie... who certainly can't sit still for pictures. . . not that we haven't tried.
Birdie will soon run from time to time in Randy's backyard while we're staying in LA this winter. And none too soon either. Cold, wind, snow and darkness enshroud our house today as this is written.
Is this where Snow White and her prince live happily ever after?
