Photo Sessions with your Pets

Your pets are part of your family as well. And having a photo session with just your dog or your cat is special too.

For me, I always try to make sure that your do not look stiff in your pictures. That you do not feel uncomfortable in from of the camera. And of course I understand that is extremely hard to do. A lot of us are conditioned in such a way that as soon as we see a camera in from of us, we put on a fake smile and pose awkwardly. My job is to make sure that this does not happen.

One of the best things I found to do in sessions, is having a conversation with a person who I’m taking photos of. Especially about something that is interesting to them and makes them happy. You reminisce and smile much more genuinely compared to blunt “Could you smile?”

Another good solution for genuine smiles - doing a photo session with your pets. They gonna be happy to be out and about and you gonna be more focused on them and forget that this is a photo shoot.

Here is an example of such a session I had last winter with Shannon and Skittles. Enjoy.
