Fall is a great time to schedule a portrait session with your dog

Golden Retriever Scorch portrait

Fall is now officially upon us. The temperatures are cool, the leaves have turned and the “light” just glows. There’s no better time than now to schedule a portrait session!

Portrait Sessions

Sessions typically last one to two hours at a mutually chosen location. All portrait sessions are personalized to allow you to best achieve your goals. Whether you’re looking for a formal, stacked “breed” picture, an action shot, or a casual head shot, I will work with you to insure that you will treasure your portrait for years to come.

Portrait Sessions include:

• Printed color photo book of your proofs
• Online e-proofs
• Customization to suit your needs
• Formal portraits — sitting, headshots, stacked/standing, lying down, portraits with you, with other dogs you own
• Candids portraits — less formal, dog being a dog, playing, etc.
• Set up action photos – playing, field work, agility, obedience, etc.

Cost: $150.00/hour ($25 fee for more than 2 dogs, additional reprints, photo products extra)

Mini Portrait Sessions

Got a group of friends looking for portraits of their dogs? Have a portrait party! Organize a group of friends together at one location and get my reduced mini portrait session price. (Note: a minimum number of sessions is required.)

Mini Portrait Sessions include:

• Online e-proofs
• Customization to suit your needs
• Formal portraits — sitting, headshots, stacked/standing, lying down, portraits with you, with other dogs you own
• Candid portraits — less formal, dog being a dog, playing, etc.

Cost: $40/half hour ($10 fee for more than 2 dogs, additional reprints, photo products extra)

Check out some of my portrait work from previous portrait sessions in the portfolio.

And don’t forget the holidays are also fast approaching! What better gift to give than professionally done portraits? And, of course, they make lovely holiday cards to send to all your family and friends!

I currently have the following weekends available for sessions: Nov 7, and Nov 14-15. I are also available most weekdays as well. Contact me to schedule your portrait session.
