Artistic Pet Portraits

Beautiful soft light for artistic pet portraits. These images can be taken at any location of your choice, though for best results I will recommend a few of my favourite locations to complement your pet and their personality.

The Process

Step 1

Inquiry

Congratulations on taking the first step! You’ve reached out because you want memorable images of your best friend, and now the excitement begins. I’ll delve into learning all about your furry companion – their temperament, needs, any concerns you may have, and your location preferences. Based on this information, I’ll recommend a few locations perfectly suited to bring your vision to life!

Step 2

Shooting Day

During your shoot, we’ll meet at the chosen location. Your dog gets to sniff and explore until you’re both relaxed. I’ll guide you through easy prompts for running, playing, and posing, using treats or toys as rewards. Your dog can stay leashed throughout the session! I prioritise you and your dog’s comfort, ensuring a happy experience for both of you.

Step 3

Choose your Images

Within a week of your shoot, you’ll receive the full gallery of our photoshoot. Here, you can select your absolute favourites for editing on an easy to use online platform. Plus, you’ll have the option to purchase additional images if you’d like.

Step 4

Delivery Day

The day you’ve eagerly awaited is finally here! You’ve seen the raw images, but today marks the moment you receive an email granting access to your exclusive, fully edited, and stunning online gallery. From there, you can download the gallery or easily share it with friends and family. If you’re considering printed products, now’s the time to discuss options. We’ll ensure you get top-quality professional prints!

FREE Consultation

Not sure which package is right for you? Or have questions on my booking and shooting process? Enjoy a free consultation with absolutely no pressure or obligation to book. I am happy to walk you through the entire journey and will answer absolutely any question you might have. 

Can’t be off-leash or sit/stay?

No problem! The magic of photoshop makes it possible. Try it out yourself below.

Frequently asked questions

HOW DO I BOOK?

Booking with me is incredibly streamlined! Give me a shout via email, my contact form or by phone to get started. Your booking will be confirmed once you receive a booking confirmation email. 

DO YOU SHOOT CATS?
I do! I have taken photos of many adventure cats, provided your cat likes to accompany you on outdoor excursions with a leash and harness.
MY DOG IS REACTIVE AND CAN’T BE OFF-LEASH

Not to worry! We work with treats to gain your dog’s trust and make him feel as comfortable as possible.

My remote locations and shooting times will generally lead to a quiet and easy going environment for your dog without many triggers around. We also don’t expect them to be let off leash at any time. Please make sure that your dog wears a low profile collar instead of a harness, making it easy to remove in photoshop later on. If he needs to wear a harness to get to location, swap it out for a collar once we get there. 

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?

We will shoot come sunshine or stormy weather!

However, if we are experiencing severe weather resulting in unsafe or unsatisfactory shooting conditions, we will reschedule your shoot to the next available booking date at no additional charge. 

HOW DO I PREPARE FOR THE SESSION?

Have a look at my handy prep guide for tips and tricks on what to wear, what to bring and how to prepare for your photoshoot.

Most importantly, please make sure you have water, his favourite treats, waste bags and a collar for your dog. If he needs to wear a harness to get to location, swap it out for a collar once we get there. 

DO YOU PROVIDE TREATS?
Yes! We provide 100% natural freeze dried liver treats. Even though this is included in every session, I always recommend you bring your dogs favorite treats with you as well, incase he shows no interest in the treats we provide.
CAN I ADD ADDITIONAL PEOPLE OR DOGS?

Unfortunately not. It is beyond the scope of what I can provide in the limited amount of time we have allocated for each session to include multiple people/dogs. Please book the correct type of session for the amount of people/dogs you are looking to include. 

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY IMAGES?

After the shoot, your proofing gallery will be ready within the first 7 days in the form of an online gallery. Here you can pick your favorite images with the option to purchase additional photos.

Once chosen, your photos will be edited which can take anywhere between 2-4 weeks, depending on current work load. You will be given a new online gallery for you to download and share your photos with friends and family. Complimentary shoots or Model Calls may have a longer turn-around time.

WHAT ARE THE FINAL IMAGES I WILL RECEIVE?

You will receive fully edited High resolution JPG images as a download, as well as social media files for sharing online. I do not release un-edited photos or RAW images.

Booking a shoot with me will include photos for private use only. Professional/Commercial use is prohibited unless you have contacted me for a commercial job.

WHAT DO I DO IF MY DOG HATES CAMERAS?
Rarely will dogs want to have their picture taken! It’s one of the biggest advantages when booking with a professional dog photographer. We have a few tricks up our sleeves to get your dog’s attention and make him look his absolute best! Your pup won’t even know we’re taking photos.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I NEED TO POSTPONE MY SESSION?
Unforeseen circumstances happen! Please let me know as soon as you are aware you can’t make your shoot. For less than 72 hours notice we may have to charge a rescheduling fee of $50.
