After Your Dog Portrait Experience

The portrait session is only the beginning.

After the session continues a thoughtful process of editing, curation, and refinement—transforming moments into lasting artwork.

After Your Session

  • Proofing Gallery

    After your session, I step fully into the role of editor and curator. I review the complete gallery, lightly refining each image before creating a gallery of proofs for you to select your favorite portraits.

    This process is intentional and unhurried, allowing the strongest moments to rise to the surface.

  • Select Your Favorites

    You’ll select your package-included images and any others you can’t live without.

    Once you’ve made your selections, I’ll put the finishing touches on each portrait to ensure your pup looks their absolute best.

    Your edited portraits will be delivered inside a downloaded album inside your gallery 2 weeks after your selections are submitted.

  • Wall Art + Prints + Albums

    Your gallery remains available for three months after your session, during which you may order prints, canvases, albums, and additional digital images. All artwork is produced with the same care and attention as the portraits themselves.

    Printed artwork include the matching digital file of the printed image.

    Printed pieces typically ship within 2–3 weeks of ordering.

Your Questions, Answered

  • I’ve found it’s best to have your dog be able to sit and wait (or stay) before their session. It’s important for them to be able to sit on the backdrop by themselves without running after you!

    Many dog parents are pleasantly surprised at how quickly I’m able to capture a split-second sit and stay. Just practice up beforehand and your dog should do just fine!

  • Sh!t happens.

    Before your session, make sure your dog uses the facilities outside to start the session with an empty bladder. There’s time for another potty break halfway through the session.

    If your dog does have an accident, I’ll clean up the mess while you take them outside. The session will resume after but cannot guarantee adding additional time to the end of the session.

  • Two weeks after your session, you’ll get an email with a gallery of your edited images to swoon over. Can’t narrow it down? No worries—you can purchase extra images for $35 each or go all in and order the whole gallery.

    These photos aren’t meant to live in your phone’s camera roll—they’re meant to be shown off! You can order prints, wall art, or even custom apparel straight from your gallery.

  • I’m happy to reschedule when given as much notice as possible. Rare circumstances will allow for full refunds.
