Our pets are our best friends. It doesn't matter if their most exuberant expression is a passive wave of a tail fin - we just gotta love 'em. All healthy, house-trained (or contained) animals are welcome. Everyone deserves a permanent memory of their heart's companion.
Sessions can be held at the studio, inside or outside someone’s home, or in a place of special meaning to the family. Different locations lend themselves to different looks, and setting is a part of the portrait session covered at the pre-portrait consultation.
A typical Pets Session runs anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours, depending upon the animal's comfort level and their physical limitations. Kitties, particularly, often require more of a time investment. They're sometimes not too sure that their human family really knows what they've gotten into at first, but after a while, they generally relax and loosen up, and give you excellent images.
People are encouraged to come in or call and talk about what they’re looking for from the experience, about things like color, clothing, collars, and styles. A variety of albums and wall portraits are available for browsing to help individuals decide on what look works best for them.
A combination of posed and casual images is captured, combined into a DVD slideshow set to music, and presented to the family for viewing and choosing both on TV and in small printed “proofs.” Many products in addition to wall and desk portraits are available to feature you and your pets’ images including mugs, tee shirts, and teddy bears, as well as porcelain collector plates, calendars, jewelry, and handbags.
