What if I lose my DVD of photos from you?
I recommend you make a backup of your photos. You can never have too many copies but I also make back ups and keep everything I have ever photographed indefinitely. So you can rest assure your flies will be safe.
Does my pet need to be well trained to have photos taken?
If you have a dog then basic commands such as sit, lay down and come will help but it is not essential. I am a very calm and relaxed person, the animal can feel this and I have never come away from a pet photo session not having captured what I intended to. If your [...]
When is the best time to photograph my pet?
There is no best time to photograph a pet other than when it’s too late. I have many owners coming to me when their pet is really unwell and doesn’t have much longer to live wanting a few professional photos to remember their pet by and telling me they wished they had taken photos of [...]
How will you get my pet to cooperate or stay still?
Patience, your help and my experience with animal training and also by cooperating with the animal rather than trying to force them into doing something they are not willing or wanting to do.
How long does a pet photo session take?
Depending on how much coverage and how many photos of your pets you would like and if there are additional family members and owners wanting to be photographed together, normally a pet photo-session can last between 2 to 4 hours. I have been known to spend the whole day. It also depends on your budget!
Can my children or I be photographed with our pets?
I am more than happy for children and their owners to be photographed with their pets, providing your pets are familiar and safe to be around your children (and vice versa!!)
Will our pets be photographed in the studio, on location or in our home?
I am happy to photograph in all the above. My favourite I have to say is on location, I love natural light and your pets favourite environment, be it a forest walk, the beach or just your back garden. I can also photograph pets in my studio but the look is quite controlled, but it’s [...]
Should I bring treats for my pets?
Yes but only to be given to your pet when directed to do so by me. I have a number of years experience with how best to get your pet to react with treats during the photo sessions. It’s important not to let the treats rule the photo-shoot unless that is the only option on [...]
How should I prepare my pet for the photo session?
Depending on what kind of pet you have, but please prepare your pet in the way you would like to see your pet photographed, If it’s a long hair cat or dog for example please get them washed and groomed, nails and fur trimmed as required, make sure your pet has been walked (if it’s [...]
How about if my pet is really nervous, can you still take photographs?
As long as I am told before hand there are other ways than sticking a camera in front of it’s nose to take a beautiful photograph. Photographing the pet in it’s familiar surrounding and with a long lens is an option for example. A studio shoot may not be the best for a nervous pet, [...]
Can you photograph more than one pet at a time?
Yes, however we may need more time to be able to wait for the right moment to be able to capture them behaving how we want them to. Also providing they all get a long.
What kind of pets do you photograph?
Providing it isn’t causing any danger to me or my team I will photograph any kind of pet.
