Testimonials
Gal

“Bre was wonderful to work with! She made the process easy, fun, and rewarding for us humans and our fur-baby. Our pup loved the home made treats!!”

Indie

“We absolutely loved having our dog’s photos taken by Bre! Our dog can be a little shy at first and it usually takes her a while to warm up to people but our dog did so great with Bre’s direction. We cannot be more excited about our photos and look forward to visiting Bre again for more photos!”

Thor

“This experience was so fun! Bre was so patient with my overly hyper dog & helped play with him to try to tire him to sit better for photos. She also made sure to sit down with us & make sure we were happy with our photos before our session ended, which was so wonderful so you know you will be happy with the end result!”

Franklin

“Franklin’s portraits are beautiful — Bre really captured his personality! I loved seeing how quickly Franklin warmed up to Bre... and how absolutely beautiful the photos are! She never got upset when he wasn’t sitting perfectly.  Instead, Bre captured him being the little stinker he is!”

Skye Echo

“Bre photographed my fur babies Skye and Echo. The process from start to finish was seamless and incredibly professional.
Walking into her NE studio felt more like walking into a SoHo New York City Loft- it is SO amazing.
She connected immediately with both of my pups, and most importantly the pictures turned out incredible-thank you Bre, you are incredibly talented!”

Diffley

“Diffley and I had an amazing studio session with Bre. I wasn't sure how it would go with Diffley being a younger pup (16 wks.) She was great about having multiple toys, treats, and sounds at the ready to refocus Diffley when he would wander off. It was such a wonderful way to spend time and bond with my pup. I love the results!”

Koba + Seamus

“I would definitely recommend The Dog Photog to anyone with pets. The process was quick and easy and now I have digital prints that I can use as I please. She really captured my dogs' personalities!”

Orion

“Bre, worked amazingly with my 3yr old miniature poodle. I was afraid he would be too distracted with the new environment but Bre knew exactly what to do to get his best angles. Bre was very gentle and kind with Orion and she gave him lots of breaks which we truly appreciate.”

GLENN

“Bre was an absolute angel with our little guy!! She used some fun and creative ways to get his attention during the photo shoot, had adorable/healthy little treats on hand, and most importantly prioritized keeping the session fun for our dog. Thank you Bre!!”

Penny

“Penny had such a great time trying to eat all the popcorn and sit pretty for the camera. Bre was able to capture the cutest moments, which we are so thankful we have now that Penny is no longer with us. Such a great way to remember our sweet fur baby! Thank you”

“Help! Idk if my dog will sit still for her session!”

We fully understand that some dogs have highly selective hearing… or listening!

“Can I be in the photos with my dog?”

Short answer: Yes.
Long answer: Yesssssssssss!

“What if my dog has an accident during their session?”

Sh!t happens. If your pup isn’t potty-trained yet or marks in new places, you’ll want to read this!
