Dog Photography Inquiry Guide

NOT a problem!

Many of my favorite portraits have dogs standing or walking or even running and jumping & I have a DEEP pocket of unique sounds and tasty treats to keep their attention on me.

I’ve worked with 1000’s of shelter dogs who have no idea what sit even means.

I promise, your dog will have beautiful portraits, no training required.

Want to know a secret?

98% of the dogs you see on my website were wearing a leash!

Or inside a secure fence! And sometimes both!

With the magic of photoshop, I can create the off leash artwork you want while keeping your pet safe.

YES! And even better, you’ll get both — digital files AND art. Because you DESERVE both!

You don’t smile every time you walk pass that drawer of CDs, but you absolutely do when you walk pass your dog’s photo on the wall. Flipping the pages of your album you can feel his soft furry body while you snuggled in the grass. Your hands remember how warm his fur was after an afternoon in the sunshine. This is what physical artwork can do that digital just cannot.

Don’t get me wrong, I love digital files too. I want the home screen on my phone to be my dog and I want to share her adorable photos all over social media.

That’s why collections include high resolution digital files.

Yep!

I’m stilling looking to beat my current PR of 11 dogs for one family, so bring on the multi dog families!

Your reservation fee covers ALL the animals in your immediate family (including cats, horses, hedgehogs, & more) and I’d be delighted to meet them all!

I have one simple rule — I photograph people so long as they bring a pet too!

I encourage you to get in the photos with your dog. Even if you don’t love being photographed, most of my clients find they love images hat show their relationship. And these are the photos that become only more valuable with time.

I also photograph high school seniors, families, and children with their dogs and /or horses.

First, I am so sorry. Our dog’s lives are tragically short.

I make every effort to photograph end of life sessions as soon as possible and will do everything in my power to see you quickly. Please letme know when inquiring if you need an urgent session.

I completely understand, the world can be a scary place for all of us sometimes.

If your dog is nervous or reactive we can choose a location that suits them.

I know some locations that are out of the way and receive very little dog or foot traffic or we can always rent a private location which would ensure that we see no one!

I can also use longer lens which means I can give your dog more space - staying 10 to 20 feet away and still delivering beautiful final portraits.

My camera shutter speed goes all the way up to 1/8000 of a second – plenty of speed to capture the most active dog!

Our sessions never require your dog to sit, stay and behave for hours (or even minutes) on end.

One of the benefits of hiring a pet specific photographer is that we know how to manage our hyper clients and still deliver gorgeous images.

If the weather is less than ideal we can certainly reschedule!

Your reservation retainer is simply transferred over to our new date.

I reserve rain dates on my calendar to make sure I can get you rescheduled quickly.
