How It Works
1. Book Your Session
Contact me to dive deeper into your tailored session. Once you’re ready to move forward, simply reserve your spot through our online booking link. You’ll receive a short questionnaire to tell me all about your dog; their quirks, favorite treats, and what makes them happiest, so I can tailor the experience just for them.
2. The Session Experience
Your session takes place in our modern, pet-friendly studio designed with your dog’s comfort in mind. They’re free to explore the studio before we start and we encourage lots of positive reinforcement to get used to the backdrop and lighting. This helps create a fear-free, positive environment. There’s no time limit (although most sessions typically last up to an hour) as we go at your dog’s pace to capture genuine expressions and regel portraits.
3. Viewing Your Gallery
After your session, you’ll receive an online gallery to view your fully edited images from the comfort of home. Take your time choosing the photos that speak to your heart.
4. Choosing Your Artwork
Whether you fall in love with digital images, fine art prints, albums, or wall pieces, you’ll have flexible options to invest in what you love most after viewing your final gallery! Collections start at $690 and wall art starts at $300. All wall art and print products come with matching digital files!

FAQs
What is your availability?
Studio sessions are by appointment only, Saturday through Tuesday. There is convenient morning and afternoon times available.
Do you only have a black background?
The black background is the signature style of Soul Dog Studio and the foundation of all sessions. If you’d like to include more variety, you can add up to two additional solid backdrop colors for an upgrade.
I’m also in the process of adding in a modern, lifestyle set-up! Complete with a cozy couch, and daybed for clients who want a mix of relaxed, home-inspired images (or dogs who would rather be on the furniture than a backdrop!).
What if I have more than one dog?
There is no extra fees for multiple dogs from the same household. They’re all welcomed in for their turn for their own portraits!
What if my dog isn’t well trained / anxious / reactive, etc?
Dogs of all skill levels are welcome at Soul Dog Studio! If your pup needs a little extra time to warm up or doesn’t have the strongest listening skills, just let me know ahead of time so I can plan accordingly.
A basic “sit” and “stay” is helpful for posing on the backdrop, and I encourage practicing this before your session. But rest assured, I’m experienced with all types of personalities and am happy to take things at your dog’s pace to create beautiful portraits.
I’ve spent the last six years photographing reactive and anxious dogs, and every session is built on a gentle, fear-free approach. Your session is also completely private! We’ll easing in with their favorite treats and toys to help them get comfortable with the backdrop. And if your dog prefers to keep a little distance or needs to stay on a leash, that’s totally okay; leashes can be removed during the editing process. My goal is always to go at your dog’s pace and create portraits that honor who they are.
Do you offer payment plans?
I offer payment plans on any orders! The session fee must be paid in full at the time of booking. I offer in-house payment plans (with no interest) where we can do weekly or monthly installments, or I offer Afterpay!
