fREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

mY pET IS NOT A RESCUE, CAN WE STILL PARTICIPATE?


The short answer, ABSOLUTLY!  These sessions are not just for rescue pets, they are for ALL pets! We are here to support a good cause so, all pets are welcome!

my dog can't be off leash, can we still get great photos?


I'm here to let you in on a secret, 99% of dogs I photograph are actually on lead.  I will provide a special lean that is easily removed, so it looks like your dog was off leash the entire time.  

can i be photographed with my pet?


Of course!  You will want to upgrade to the extended session ($200) option to allow for extra time to capture portraits alongside your furry friend(s)  This is your chance to capture something other than those awkward selfies where you are half-squinting and your dog's nose in mysteriously in your ear.

my pet does not know any commands, can we still participate?


No training is no problem here!  Your pets portrait session isn't about great obedience, it is about letting them be 100% themselves. From zoomies in all directions, to exploring their surroundings, there has never been a dog, no matter the training level , that we haven't been able to create breathtaking one-of-a-kind portraits of!
