Most pet photo sessions will be at area parks and outdoor urban locations. Studio photography is also available and quite popular during the colder winter months. Together, we will choose the best location for your dog and the location that will provide you with images that you love.

Looking for the best spots for dog photos? I’ve photographed pups everywhere from golden-hour fields to colorful urban corners. Get this free guide here to discover my top picks.

The Signature Pet Photo Session includes travel up to 35 miles from the Studio. Travel outside my area is an option for an additional fee. Please contact me to request a custom quote.

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.

Yes! 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.

Up to two pets from the same household are welcome to be included in the session. An additional $75 per-pet fee applies for more than two pets. If you are interested in a photo session that includes ‘extended family’ pets, please contact me for a custom quote.

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

Facing the end of a pet’s life can be one of the most difficult times for families. I understand your grief and sadness well.
