Pet Parents Like You & Me Call Our Pet Our Child & have lots of photos of them on our phones
BUT you don’t have any printed. And YOU have been thinking about having a fun pet session and decorating your home with wall art or albums of your fur baby…
–> You want a great photo of your dog
BUT you’re afraid your dog wont sit still or corporate
–> You’re worried because your dog can’t be off leash
and thus wont be able to get a good photo
–> You may want to be in a few photos
BUT you’re not comfortable in front of the camera
You have an Incredible bond with your pet and want to showcase it!
Your dog is there for you every day, and experiences all the good and bad things in your life. They are by your side no matter what. They trust you. They are your biggest confidant and bff who puts a smily on your face with only a tilt of the head.
You are a dog mom, and a proud one! The bond you have with your dog is stronger than any other relationship you have, and gets stronger by the day.
Having a photoshoot together is an incredible way to honour & celebrate your friendship. And best of all you get beautiful portraits that are truly the best keepsake you can have of your dog!
I Can Create Heart Felt Portraits Of Your Dog
I know what you are feeling as I have a dog that is high energy and has fur as black as the midnight sky. She is difficult for almost anyone to photograph well…except me 🙂
Thru my dog-lead approach, experience, and patience, I strive to create beautiful portraits of your pet by highlighting their personality, soul, and bond the have with you. Dog moms will often purchase multiple big beautiful Wall art and an album to tell the tail of their dog!
If you are a dog mom that loves their dog more than anything and would love to get amazing photos of her, then you have come to the right place!
Testimonials:
‘I have used Candra for so many photos including branding , head shots, pet photography and my wedding! She is just wonderful to work with. She creates a fun experience and has a way of capturing the natural beauty in her photos. She is wonderful with your pets I know my dog loves her !’
– Kacie L
Candra is friendly and professional. She ensured that we were well-prepared and knew exactly what to expect. She worked with us to determine the types of photos she would take based on her suggestions and what we wanted to capture the dogs doing (from munching carrots like they do at home to different poses suggested by Candra).
Candra’s patience and enthusiasm helped to make our photo session a comfortable and enjoyable experience for both the dogs and the humans
– Melissa C
How A Pet Session Works
1) Let’s Chat – we will schedule a connection call via zoom. Or we can email if you’re not a fan of zoom 😉 During this time I learn about your pet, chat about what to expect & pricing & see if a working together is a good fit. If you’re 100% in then we book you into my calendar & I send a few emails to get you prepared for your session.
2) PhotoShoot – this is the fun part, your session. Hehe, you are my assistant and help pose when needed. And if we are outside, your dog is on a leash the whole time, and I simple edit it (and you) out of the photos.
3) The Photo Premiere & Product Delivery– About 7 days after your session, we either have a zoom Premier & Ordering Session OR you receive a 5-day online proofing gallery. Via both reveals, you get to see your proofs, choose a digital file package and order wall art, albums, and prints. I help you through the whole process and even give you a glimpse of what your beautiful wall art will look on YOUR wall. After you have chosen your digital files and product. I then edit them. Editing usually takes up to 2 weeks and if you ordered products, allow up to 6 weeks for product delivery.

Testomonials:
Working with Candra was so easy and the photos where beyond beautiful…they really showcased our Noodles personality’
– Samantha T
Our puppy session with Candra was wonderful and so much fun for both of us!!! Lottie loved Candra right from the start and of course the all you can eat treat jar was A BIG HIT. My proofs were sent so quickly and it was almost impossible to choose. I ordered a couple of prints and again had the edited proofs in a day or two. Cannot wait to have these hanging on our wall so we can smile every time we see them. Thank you Candra for capturing our beautiful, quirky little Lottie Pup exactly as we see her. I cannot wait to do our whole family shoot this fall!!!!
