FAQs
How long will the session last?
Your dogs shoot will be approximately 1-2 hours. This allows for a relaxed walk, with plenty of time for stops and a play. This gives time for me to capture a great mixture of candid and portrait shots.
What happens if it rains?
A bit of light rain isn’t a problem, and we can often carry on. I’ll keep an eye on the forecast in the days leading up to your session. If the weather turns unmanageable or uncomfortable, we’ll simply reschedule at no extra cost. The same goes for extremes of heat or wind, the welfare of the dog is paramount. I always leave room in the diary so it stays easy and stress-free.
Do you travel for shoots?
Yes I work throughout Somerset and the surrounding areas. Travel within 15 miles of TA3 is included. For locations further afield, travel is charged at 45p per mile (return journey). All costs will be confirmed and quoted in advance. I am always happy to explore and go to new places, especially when dogs are involved!
How should I prepare my dog for the shoot?
After we’ve had your consultation, I’ll send over a welcome guide. It covers how to prepare, and what to expect on the day.
Can I bring more than one dog?
Up to two dogs from the same household are included. More can be arranged during your consultation for an additional fee.
Does my dog need to be off lead?
No. There’s plenty we can do with your dog on a lead. I’ll guide you on how to hold it, and remove it in editing afterwards.
If you’d prefer a secure space, I’d be happy to meet you at a private dog field or in your back garden where your dog is most comfortable.
Can I be photographed with my dog?
Absolutely. We’ll capture you together naturally - walking, playing, or just being together. Nothing forced or overly posed. I focus on the small, natural moments that show your relationship. The trust, playfulness, and affection you share.
When will I receive the final photos?
Around 7 days after your shoot. I'll carefully curate and edit your five final images that capture your dog as they truly are.
