Frequently asked questions.

  • Super easy! Simply click here to get started.

  • Anywhere you like – home, a local park, the beach, an urban scene or any special place of significance to you. The location you choose and the variety of photos you want will determine which session is best suited for your needs. If unsure I’m happy to guide you in the right direction.

    Please note – if you own a cat, most cat photography sessions will take place indoors (ie. at home or in studio) unless they are comfortable being outdoors on a lead.

  • Don’t worry, once you’ve made a booking I will send you a Pre-Shoot Preparation Guide outlining in detail what you can do to help make the photo shoot the best it can be.

  • Our pet photography shoots are aimed at providing you with as much variety of images of your pet to choose from as possible. To do this I will spend some time with your pet, making sure they trust me and are feeling comfortable with the camera. I will then begin the shoot. I may often make weird noises, hold up treats, balls and squeeze toys to grab your pet’s attention. It’s fun and there’s sure to be lots of laughs!

    You may be asked to get involved with us in crafting the right set ups. This could be something as simple as giving your pet commands to giving them treats and throwing toys for them to chase. It may mean a few takes to get the shot right so a little patience will be required – but it will be a lot of fun!

  • I will send you a contact sheet within 72 hours of the shoot. You can make all of your selections for digital and *print images. The digital files will be delivered within 1-2 weeks. The prints should be back from the lab within 10-15 business days.

    *You have the opportunity to order artwork pieces ranging from Giclée Prints, custom shirts, mugs, etc.

  • After I get your selection, you will receive your digital images in 1-2 weeks, sometimes sooner!

  • “Bad” weather can be incredible weather for photos.

    Every season and weather condition provides different photo opportunities. Cloudy days, for example, are perfect for outdoor shots as they are a natural light diffusing filter. Having said that Seattle weather can be a challenge and I understand that some conditions may be too severe or unpredictable and may require rescheduling. If you have booked an outdoor session and the weather is uncooperative, I am happy to reschedule or relocate.

  • Yes. It’s quite common to do the entire shoot with pets on a lead. I can provide a 50ft lead if needed.

    I will direct the shoot so that the lead is hidden wherever possible. It can be removed during the post production and editing process.

  • Generally I will travel within one hour of Issaquah. As far North as Millcreek and as far South as Tacoma.

    Anything outside that will incur a small fee. I am also happy to travel interstate or even overseas if you so desire. Please contact me for a quote.
