How it Works
1. We talk all about your pet and how you want to display your images
We will have as many conversations as we need about location, time of day, the walls in your home and what to wear if you want to be in the images. It will be a pleasure to get to know all about your pet and how you want to honour them.
2. We choose a collection when you book your session or we can decide this after the session
These decisions can come easy to some people but others want to see the images before they decide on the final products they want. We’ll make sure you choose the collection that works for you.
3. We have all of the fun we can, creating fabulous images together
This is really where we have all of the fun.
4. We get together online or in person to select your favourites and how to display them
I absolutely love sharing the images we have taken with you and helping you with how the final displays will look and feel.
5. You get to celebrate and enjoy something for a lifetime that matters to you
You will thank yourself for doing something that celebrates the love you have for each other.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
My dog is a little (insert adjective here; hyper, shy, nervous) so he will never cooperate for a session.
Yes! Approximately 98.9% of the pups that grace these pages are your everyday companions. They may or may not listen to sit or stay and that is JUST FINE! My camera will capture them at 1/1000th of a second so they truly do not have to be quiet or still. It’s important to discuss any possible behaviour challenges during the pre-session consultation, but sometimes no-one knows the dog is terrified of the sound of the shutter! Whatever the case, we will spend some extra time with your four-legged family member to get them comfortable with me and my camera using positive reinforcement techniques.
I love those outdoor shots but my dog can’t be off-leash. What are my options?
The safety of our clients is the number one priority during our session and the only dogs that should come off-leash are the ones that their owners are 110% confident in their ability to recall their pet in that particular situation. In certain situations, like urban shooting, we keep even the most well-behaved dogs on their leash for safety. We can also use the special long line during our session to capture some action shots but still ensure they are safe and sound. All leashes will be magically removed in Photoshop from any ordered image at no additional charge.
How many pets are included in the session?
Your session can include all the pets from the same household. For some, dogs and cats are like potato chips and you can’t have just one. If you are a breeder, reach out so we can discuss what will work for you.
Can I be in the photos too? What about my human children?
Yes! I encourage you to be in the photos too, as well as any other humans from your household. We recommend having someone in your circle come to help if you have children under the age of 4. During our pre-session consultation, we will discuss what types of images we can create during our session and whether the session will focus mainly on your dog, the relationship between you and your dog, or equal focus on both!
My dog doesn’t have much time left. Is there a special session?
I’m so sorry. Our pet’s lives are tragically short. Tribute Sessions are available for those pets that are at the end of their time with us. They are regular sessions, but I will give every effort to adjust my schedule to squeeze you in as soon as possible.
Do I have to choose a collection now?
While it’s helpful to have an idea of which collection you are interested in when booking your session, you do not have to make any final decisions until our viewing and ordering appointment when you see all of your final images!
Limited Edition Creative Sessions
As the name implies, Limited Edition Creative Sessions are only offered periodically throughout the year. The goal of these sessions is to create a specific image with a specific theme, such as action dogs, or a specific location, such as skyline sessions. These sessions are all-inclusive and include a piece of artwork, starting at $375.
The only way to learn about these opportunities is to be on our VIP list!
