How It Works
Our straightforward, fuss-free process makes your photoshoot experience fun and easy. From our very first chat through to the moment you hang your beautiful new pet portrait, we’ll make sure you know what to expect.
Let's Have a Chat!
It all starts when you get in touch via the contact form below to book your FREE 30 minute consultation. We’ll find a time that works for you to discuss your needs over the phone or via video chat. During your consultation, we’ll get to know a bit about you and your pet, go over some options and answer any questions you might have. It’s relaxed and casual, and there’s no pressure. If you think we’d be a good fit, you’ll have the chance to book a session that suits your schedule. We’ll send through a short questionnaire about your animal’s needs and preferences, and request a peek at a few of your current favourite pet photos.
It's Showtime
The big day is here! Your photoshoot will take place in the comfort of your home or a location of your choosing. We’ll bring everything we need, including an impressive selection of props and costumes, and take the time to make sure your pet feels at ease. Our clients often tell us how much they enjoy our photo sessions - and how much their pets do, too.
Choose Your Faves
Right after the photoshoot, while our team tidies up the portable studio, we’ll do a quick review and edit of your photos. You’ll get to see samples of our artwork options, and then we’ll sit down together to go through the photos from your session. In the comfort of your own home, you can order your favourites on the spot before we leave, making it a relaxed, all-in-one experience.
Special Delivery
Oh, boy - your prints are ready! It’s important to us that you’re happy with your new portraits, so, where possible, we’ll organise a time with you and deliver your artwork personally. All that’s left to do now is choose the perfect display spot...and give your pet an extra treat for being such a good model!
FAQ
We’ve worked with all kinds of animals, and we’d love to work with yours. Worried they’re a bit out of the ordinary? We love a challenge – so get in touch and we’ll talk.
Our photoshoots usually take about two hours, but if need be we’ll stick around for as long as it takes to get some great shots. We pride ourselves on our patience and ability to connect with pets, but if, for whatever reason, your animal just isn’t feeling it on the day, we’re happy to reschedule the shoot at no extra cost.
It might be tempting to give your pet a complete makeover ahead of their shoot – but remember, the goal is to celebrate them as they are! All that’s necessary is to make sure your animal is looking their best and is happy and comfortable. If there’s an area in your home you’d like us to capture, a quick tidy and vacuum is all you need to get it camera-ready. Got an excitable dog? We recommend a moderate walk before the photoshoot to get out some of that extra energy.
Yes, we think so. Most of the animals we photograph have a very positive photoshoot experience – even those who tend to be a little shy or reserved. You’d be amazed how a bit of patience and understanding (plus a few well-deserved treats!) can really bring out their personalities. Every pet is different, and we pride ourselves on making them all feel comfortable.
Yes. Our portraits are all about authenticity, so we edit our images carefully and lightly. We won’t add novelty filters or edit in extra elements, but we will tidy up backgrounds, correct lighting and remove any glaring imperfections (like a stray leash).
No. The photoshoot is all about your pet, so you won’t have to appear on camera at all if you don’t want to. However, if you would like to be photographed with your animal, that’s great! Talk to us about your idea and we’ll find a way to make it happen.
Our packages include a BONUS USB containing digital versions of all photographs ordered. The resolution we provide depends on the package that you select, and ranges from smaller images ideal for social media to larger images suitable for printing. Get in touch to build a custom package that meets your requirements!
We’ll certainly try! We’re no strangers to creative concepts – we’ve photographed puppies nestled in socks on a washing line, felt the power of the force (and the dark side!) during a sci-fi shoot and got a little spooky for a Halloween portrait. Whatever you have planned, we’ll work with you to bring your vision to life.
