Why Your Dog Deserves a Spot in Your Family Portrait

They greet you at the door, make you laugh when you least expect it, and somehow always know when you need a little extra love. Dogs are members of the family, and this is why they should be included in your family portrait session or have a portrait session of their own. Years from now, when you look back at these portraits, you’ll remember more than just the outfits you wore – you’ll remember the years when your pet was a part of your family and the joy they brought to your life.

When bringing a family pet to the portrait session, it is important to bring treats and toys to help reward your dog.

Not all locations are pet-friendly. Make sure to check with the county to see if you are able to have your dog without a leash.

Maybe your four-legged friend deserves their own spotlight. Schedule a dedicated portrait session for your dog so you can capture the soulful eyes.
