Our photoshoots are an off leash, stress free, fun experience.

Yes, absolutely! You don’t need a set-trained pup to get good photos. We love action shots and they make for great photos! A sit/stay is highly recommended, but we can still capture fun memories without perfect obedience.
-
Yes! We have an additional dog fee of $50 for one additional dog. If you have more than 2 dogs please reach out for a custom package!
-
Grooming - You can admit that some dogs look a tad bit funny when they are freshly groomed. You would know when your dog looks their best so schedule the booking a few days after the grooming if you wish.
Treats - Lots of treats will be used during the session so please feed them less throughout the day.
Energetic dogs - Take them on a walk before the session so they can focus during the photoshoot.
-
Please bring your dog’s favorite treats and toys! We will have lots of options for them as well but some dogs are very particular about what they like so we want to make sure they have their favorites if needed.
-
Yes! We have many props for all sorts of occasions but if you have your own props you would like to use, please bring them!
-
Absolutely! We take family pictures at the end of our sessions so you’ll have a lasting memory with your pet. Please dress in something you feel comfortable being photographed in if you want any photos with your pet!

About a week after your shoot you will receive an email with a link to your online gallery with proofs from your session. These will be about 50 - 100 unedited photos. You will select your favorite photos. At this point you can add more photos to your package if you wish to.
After I receive your selections I will start editing your photos. About 2-3 weeks after you’ve made your selections you should expect to receive a new gallery with your fully edited photos.
