SESSION DETAILS & INVESTMENT

Hello‍  ‍

I’m Stephanie, dog mom to Koda, the Bossy Aussie, and owner of

STEPHANIE LYNNE PHOTOGRAPHY

I started this business with one clear focus: photographing dogs in a way that feels natural, fun, and true to who they are.

With a background in dog training and canine behavior, I use calm, force-free techniques during every session. No harsh corrections. No pressure. Just clear communication, positive reinforcement, and a whole lot of patience. That’s how we get the head tilts, relaxed expressions, and genuine personality you love.

The result? Portraits and candid moments that reflect your dog at their best — confident, curious, joyful.

FAQs

Where do photo sessions take place?

Pet photo sessions take place in Delafield, Wisconsin at Liberty Park, Cushing Memorial Park & the Delafield Fish Hatchery, Downtown Delafield, Naga-Waukee Park, or Lapham Peak State Forest.

My dog is not well-trained. How will you handle this?

Your dog does not need ANY training for a successful photo session. I will take good care of your pup during the session and I have the experience and patience to work with dogs (and puppies) of all ages and all obedience levels. Most of the time, dogs are on leashes, which are “magically” removed using editing software.

What about leashes? My dog is not reliable off-leash.

Leashes are edited out of your images without a trace, so leashes are welcomed and encouraged!

What if my dog is reserved, shy or reactive?

I understand shy, reserved and reactive dogs very well. Not to worry! Our photo session will not be rushed, so if your pup needs a little extra time to feel comfortable, we will accommodate that. I use positive training methods and understand dog behavior, so even reactive dogs can do this! On photo day, your session will be relaxed and low stress…no posing necessary! And I can shoot from a distance to capture your dog’s story and the bond you share.

How many pets can be included in the session?

Up to four dogs from the same household are welcome to be included in the session. If you are interested in a photo session that includes more than four dogs, or ‘extended family’ pets and people, please contact me for a custom quote.

Can my family be in the photos, too?

Absolutely! Family members from the same household are welcome to be included in your pet’s photo session.

Can I purchase the digital files?

Yes—digital files are available to purchase during your Viewing & Ordering Appointment.

To have these amazing photos of my pup's plus me included in a few are photos I will hold on to forever. They also make the perfect wall art. These photos are also not just any regular photos.

"I thought my dog was too rambunctious and stubborn for her to get good shots. I quickly learned that I was worried for nothing! The photos are simply amazing and she was able to capture my dog's personality perfectly. If you are thinking of getting photos of your dog, book the appointment! You will not regret it and you will walk away with stunning photos that will exceed your expectations!"
