Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose a professional pet photographer?

These days almost everyone has a high mega-pixel camera in their pocket along with some basic editing software and filters. What everyone doesn’t have is a photographic eye for composition, a deep understanding of camera settings required for correct exposure and sharpness in all the right places, a state-of-the-art professional camera lens to capture the magnificence of your dog, nor the industry leading editing software Lightroom and Photoshop not to mention the skill to use them. So, for snapshots you have your phone but if want something special; high definition images of your precious pet, professionally capture and artfully edited then that’s what I am here for.

What if my dog won’t pose?

Dogs are eager please so with a combination of treats and interesting noises it usually possibly to coax them into the desire position. We will also be capturing a lot of natural behaviour and you should think of a location shoot more as fun walk.

What if the shoot doesn’t go to plan?

There are a number reason this might happen, like our variable weather. In event the shoot does not produce the shoots we require then I am happy to reschedule.

My pet is sick or terminally ill can you fit us in?

I will always do my upmost to schedule an a serious ill pet in at short notice and shoot at a pace suitable to health of the individual.

What should I bring?

Make you have clothing and footwear suitable both the weather and terrain. A collar and lead for your dog may be necessary to aid posing, the finer the better for removing in post-production (harness are not recommended unless you want them in your final images). Some treats and your pals favourite toy are very helpful.

Do I get all the digitals?

The photography we create together is really intended for statement wall and fine art pieces to showcase your pet in their glory so that you and others can be continue to enjoyed long into the future. As such, unless otherwise specified the accompanying high definition digital/s are only included along with the print/s purchased. Digitals suitable for sharing on social media may be included (see Sessions and packages for details).

Whats included in the session fee?

The session fee includes up to 2 hours shoot time (unless otherwise specified), a free print and many social media digitals specified by the package.

Why should I choose you?

This comes down to personal preference. There are many generic photographers around, so have a look around and pick your favourite, most with professional kit and editing software. However, I have chosen to specialise pet photography so if you like my style and want to immortalise your precious pet in a piece of art unique to you then we can do that.
