- What if my dog does not listen well?
- That is completely normal. Your dog does not need perfect recall, perfect manners, or perfect posing skills. The session is planned around who they actually are. Some dogs need space, some need patience, some need snacks, and some need a few minutes to act ridiculous before they settle in. That is all part of the process.
- What if my dog needs to stay on leash?
- That is not a problem. Many dogs are photographed on leash. Leashes can often be minimized during shooting or edited out of selected final images when appropriate. Safety always comes first.
- Can you photograph more than one dog?
- Yes. Multiple dogs are welcome. If you complete the Needs Assessment, it can help determine the best approach. With multiple dogs, we plan around the smallest or least confident dog first, because the location and pacing need to work for the dog who needs the most support.
- Where do sessions happen?
- Sessions typically happen outdoors within Edmonton. The exact location depends on your dog's personality, comfort level, mobility, size, energy, and whether they are comfortable around other dogs or people. If you complete the Needs Assessment, it helps narrow this down.
- Do I have to buy more after the session?
- No. Each collection includes artwork credit, so you already have value built in for prints, wall art, or digital images. Many clients choose to add additional artwork once they see their gallery, but there is no requirement to do so.
- Can I just buy digital files?
- Digital images are available, but I do not offer a digital-only session model. These sessions are designed around finished artwork. If your main goal is to receive every file and never print anything, this may not be the right fit, and that is okay.
- What happens after I book?
- After you reserve your session or collection, I'll follow up with next steps. If you completed the Needs Assessment, I'll use those answers to guide location, timing, and session planning. If not, we'll cover the important details together before your session.
