Sessions

Every pet leaves light in (and paw prints on) our hearts that last a lifetime. These sessions are designed to help you celebrate the incredible bond you share with your furry family member, whether you're looking ahead to create lasting memories or saying your final goodbye.

A portion of the proceeds from all sessions is donated to Canine Rescue Club, helping other pets find their forever homes.

Celebration of Life Portrait Session

  • This session is ideal when you know your time together is becoming more precious, but your pet is still comfortable and able to enjoy a gentle photo experience. Maybe you've received news that's changed your perspective, or you simply want to capture this beautiful chapter while your companion is still feeling like themselves. This is for pet parents who want those classic, timeless portraits that will become treasured family heirlooms.

  • We'll spend 45 minutes together in a location that holds meaning for you both. Maybe it’s the park where you had countless walks, your peaceful backyard, or inside your home where they feel most secure. I work at your pet's pace, allowing plenty of time for treats, pets, and breaks. The focus is on genuine connection and love, not perfect poses.

    This session is intentionally relaxed and unhurried. We'll capture the little details that make your relationship special — the way they look at you, how they rest their head on your lap, or that favorite toy they always carry. And if your pet has mobility challenges, we'll work around that. Some of the most touching images happen when pets are simply being loved exactly as they are.

    • Minimum 10 high-resolution digital files delivered within 2-3 weeks

    • No-mess ink paw and nose print keepsake of those precious paws you've kissed a thousand times

    • Your choice of special moment: a flower crown, a bubble release ceremony, or maybe another tradition that you have together

    • Guidance on printing and preserving your images so you can showcase your favorite memories

  • $425 USD

    • Choose comfort over perfection - bring your pet’s favorite blanket or toy

    • Consider timing - schedule when your pet typically feels their best

    • Dress in colors that photograph well with your pet's coloring (I'll provide guidance on this too)

    • Bring high-value treats that make their tail wag

    • Come as you are - just be present and love of your pet

Best Day Ever Session

  • This session is for when you want to give your beloved companion one absolutely perfect final day—a celebration of everything they love most, whether they're still able to explore or simply find joy in gentle moments on their favorite blanket. It's about creating one last incredible day filled with all their favorite things, and maybe even letting them try those "forbidden" treats they've always watched you eat. This is your chance to see them smile big one more time while we capture every precious moment.

  • The goal is simple: give your pet the most wonderful day possible and capture their joy.

    We'll spend the time doing whatever brings them joy, and what’s within their current abilities. For some pets, that might mean a gentle car ride to their favorite spot, eating a big juicy burger, or finally get to taste chocolate. For others who aren't as mobile, it could be transforming your living room into their personal paradise with all their favorite people and toys. I will be in the background getting those precious moments on camera.

    • All digital images from the session - no choosing needed

    • Complete storytelling coverage of your pet's perfect day

    • No-mess ink paw and nose print keepsake

    • Flexible timeline - we move at your pet's pace, whether that means gentle adventures or peaceful moments

    • Adaptable to any mobility level - we can bring the celebration to them wherever they're most comfortable

  • $150 per hour, 3-hour minimum

    • Think about their absolute favorite things - that sunny spot by the window, their favorite person''s lap, or the treats they've always wanted to try

    • Consider those "special occasion only" treats - now's the time for ice cream, steak, or whatever they've been longingly watching you enjoy

    • Plan around their comfort and mobility - we can bring the party to them, whether that's in bed, on their favorite couch, or in a wagon for gentle outdoor time

    • Invite their favorite people - sometimes the best gift is having everyone they love in one place

    • Gather their treasured items - favorite toys, blankets, or anything that makes them feel secure and happy

Rainbow Bridge Day

  • This session is for the hardest day, when you're helping your furry companion cross the rainbow bridge. It's for pet parents who want these final moments documented with dignity, creating tangible memories of your pet's peaceful transition. This is not about loss; it’s about their light and your incredible act of love in letting them go.

  • I will arrive quietly and stay as long as you need, whether that's one hour or four. I understand this day is sacred, and I'm honored to be in the room to capture your love for your pet that will live far beyond this moment in time.

    If you’d like, we can capture the calm before. This might include your pet surrounded by family, enjoying favorite treats, or lying in their special sunny spot. I'll focus on the gentle pets, whispered words, and the peaceful expression on their face. After they've passed, I can capture memorial moments like their collar with favorite toys, flowers around them, or family members holding each other.

    The goal is preserving the love, not the loss. These images often become a source of comfort, showing families that their pet's final moments were filled with love and peace.

    • All digital files from the session - (typically 1-2 weeks)

    • No-mess ink paw and nose print keepsake - a final impression of those precious paws

    • Flexible timeline - I stay as long as you need me

    • Gentle guidance - I can suggest meaningful ways to document the day if you'd like

    • Compassionate delivery - images are shared privately and sensitively

  • $199

    • Consider location carefully - many pets are most comfortable at home, but some families prefer a special outdoor spot (in which case weather may also be a factor)

    • Gather meaningful items - their favorite toys, blankets, or treats for inclusion in photos

    • Think about who should be present - sometimes it's just immediate family, and sometimes extended family wants to say goodbye

    • Communicate with your veterinary team - please let them know about the photography so they can work around it

    • Take care of yourself - this is an extremely emotional day, and it's okay to feel everything deeply

Not sure if
you’re ready?

Scheduling a celebration of life photo session is an extremely personal decision. There’s absolutely no pressure or commitment required. I offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you decide whether this is the right activity for you and your pet.

Prior to the consultation call, I’ll provide you with an intake form to help answer some foundational questions. When we meet, we’ll talk through ideas together, and you can ask any questions that will help guide us in planning a session with dignity and care, should you decide to move forward.

I understand that this can be an extremely delicate conversation leading up to a life-changing event. My goal is to provide support as you move through this transition with your pet, and beyond.
