I've been where my clients are.I've loved dogs, built my life around them, and eventually had to say goodbye to them. It hurts. I know firsthand how much a photograph can mean when all that's left are memories.I put my heart into my work. I put my soul into creating. I don't do this to pay the bills. I do it for you.

Your portrait shoot includes the outdoor session and a curated gallery of 20–25 edited proofs.

I believe the best client experience starts with a conversation, not a price list. I tend to choose only working with a limited number of clients and prefer to investing my time in getting to know their goals, their dog, and what they're hoping to create.That approach tends to attract owners who are looking for something meaningful rather than simply shopping for the lowest price or predetermined packages.

Sessions are usually 45–75 minutes, with flexibility as needed.

Any Ottawa location — trails, parks, quiet streets, or downtown. The setting depends on your dog’s comfort and the style you prefer. If I travel anywhere else within Canada, I can scout locations before the session to make sure we have a great spot.

Absolutely. It's living my dream. As a Doberman owner for the past 14 years, working breeds hold a special place in my heart. I understand the drive, intelligence, focus, and personality that make these dogs unique, and I tailor every session to the individual dog in front of me.

That’s completely fine. The session is calm and unhurried, and I photograph dogs as they naturally are. Movement is part of the process.

Yes, absolutely. I work quietly and give dogs space to settle. We choose locations with room and minimal distractions. Every dog deserves to be photographed!

Yes, absolutely! We can discuss sizes and options that will suit your space. I work closely with a local print shop to make sure that any of your artwork is of the highest quality.

You’ll receive a private gallery of approximately 20-25 images to choose from.

Your proofing gallery is delivered within 24–48 hours.

Yes. If you have more than one dog, I photograph them individually and together. The session fee remains the same.

Yes. Absolutely. If you’d like a portrait with your dog, I can definitely include that.

Treats, a favourite toy, and anything that helps your dog feel comfortable. A simple collar or harness is ideal.

We reschedule at no cost. Soft overcast light is perfect, but heavy rain or extreme heat isn’t ideal.
