Events & Session Pricing
“They are your best friend for a short time, You are their best friend for their whole life.”
A photography session is an investment. It’s capturing memories with some of your most loyal friends and unfortunately, the shortest lived friends. Whether you want a mini slide show or hopefully prints, framed, canvas or just getting digital images for your social media, it’s something to look back on years from now, it’s an investment that will be with you. We also do aerial imaging for insurance reasons, before images of your home to show no damage prior to a storm and after images.
We are available for booking during the week as well as some weekends.
Sessions
What to Expect?
Once you’ve reached out to us, I will call (preferably) or we can chat via texts, but I want to hear all about your pet. Then I want to know what and why you are wanting pictures for. Are you just wanting some shots to share on the web or are you wanting artwork for your home or office. Are you or the family going to be in any shots. Is an album something you are considering.
The majority of our sessions are outdoor style sessions. If you’ve seen an image in our portfolio you are hoping to get something similar, be sure to let us know. We do studio style work in a portable tent system as well or if you have a large enough area to set up a backdrop and some lights, we can discuss that as well.
Regardless, it will start with a photo session. I will provide you with a link to book your session. You will have the choice to pay for the full session or just the non refundable booking fee.
The Session: I strive to make this a fun day for you and your pet. When I first meet with you and your pet, I will show you some samples of prints, books, etc and anything you may have asked about. While doing this, I want your pet around, getting to know me, seeing me interact with you. Then, we will start shooting some memorable moments! I normally just start out by sitting on the ground and letting your dog be a dog if we are doing an outdoor session. I will grab some shots. Then I will try to grab some nice portrait style shots then will get you in there with your dog. I kind of leave it up to how the dog is acting on how we progress with the shoot.
After the Session: Within a few weeks (sometimes a few days) after your session, I will give you a link to your album or a reveal slideshow. It will have your low resolution or high resolution images (depending on package we put together for you), you can purchase prints, additional images or artwork there as well. I will have some “mock ups” made of framed art, etc to give you some ideas how they will look. We will also have mockups of albums, etc. If you need help downloading or ordering, just ask. I am obviously available for any questions you may have. You can also just favorite your images and tell me what size prints, canvas ,etc you are wanting and I will get the order together for you and send an invoice.

Rainbow Session
Discounted - Please contact us so we can give you a quote.
We very much realize this is not “just a photo session”. We know how much your heart is hurting even having to reach out to us.
This is for our pets that are getting close to crossing the Rainbow Bridge. It’s the most heartbreaking of times. I have been there many times with my horses, dogs and cats. Each one takes a piece of you when they go.
YES! You are welcome to be in some of these images.
Rainbow sessions are customized to each client, please email, call or contact us so we can discuss and I can give you a quote. Please, you have no need to apologize if you cry during the call.
Products available after session
Framed Art, Canvas, Digitals and more
Giclee Prints - no mounting or backing - Start at $7.50.
Backing board starts at $5.50 up to $25 additional per print.
8x8 albums $200
Hanging Canvas Prints - $150 each
We offer a standard album and a plush album.
The standard is like a hard cover story book. The plush has a thick padded cover with very thick pages. The plush has more options that can keep being added, but the standard is a great all around book for any style of album.
We will go over these more prior to your session if interested.
Video showing samples of two different albums I offer my clients. Both are very nice, just different price points.
Events & Bite Nights
PSA, Trials, Bite Nights - That’s what gave us our start in dog photography years ago when I was a deputy and working with a K9 trainer.
$200 Non Refundable Retainer fee due at booking, remainder due before the actual event. If your policies are half before/after - let us know.
$900/day $1500/weekend
We are based out of the panhandle of Florida - near Panama City. We can do events in majority of Florida and nearby states.
All handlers/levels will be photographed to the best of my ability. I will sometimes grab some videos when I can. Host will have access to all images taken - not to be distributed to handlers!
An online gallery will be created, divided into days/levels etc. They will be able to purchase digital images - prices are normally $15 each or 10 for $100 and larger price breaks depending on number of images taken. We will create slideshows with some of the images, these will be free for now, can be used by handler or host.
With more and more trainers and breeders going to social media to advertise their businesses, this is a great benefit to offer competing handlers, it gives them access to more content to post on their social media sites.
We can definitely create a custom package for you. If you have a place for us to stay, that’s great, 2 dogs will be with me. We eventually will have small RV that we will stay in nearby the event when possible.
