Mochi does this face after he gets a treat. Only then. Every time.
So I know exactly how to make it happen and I still miss it constantly, because it lasts about a second and he's already looking for the next treat.
I have a lot of photos of him with his mouth halfway open looking deranged. I have a few good ones.

Every cat in this project started out unsure of me. A stranger, in their house, with a big camera. Some hid. Some watched from across the room. Not one of them walked up and posed. And every single one ended up with a photo their person loved. So if you've been telling yourself your cat is too skittish, too unfriendly, or too weird for a session, I want you to know I heard that about half these cats and it was never true. I come to you. We go at your cat's pace. Sessions are $185. Message me your cat's name.

A few open-mouth faces from real sessions.
I didn't ask for any of these. You can't really ask for this face. You just have to be paying attention when it happens.

This year I photographed cats for The Catio for their calendar. I brought the idea to them and they agreed to partner with me and advertise the contest. It turned out bigger than I expected.
If you don't know them: The Catio is a local rescue doing real work for cats who need it, and all the proceeds from the calendar go straight to them. I take the photos, they get the money, the cats get help.
This month I'm going to show you a lot of what happened during these sessions. Some of the cats were easy right away. Most needed time to warm up first. If you've been worried your cat is too difficult to photograph, these sessions are the best proof I have that they're not.

You have four thousand photos of your pet and not one of them is on a wall.
I'm going to spend all of September talking about this, so here's the short version. It's not that you don't care enough. It's that a camera roll never ends. Film has an ending. You took 24 pictures, dropped it off, and a week later you were holding prints, whether or not you were thoughtful about it. Your phone doesn't work that way. There's always a better photo next weekend, so choosing now feels early and choosing from four thousand photos feels impossible.
Nothing is telling you to stop. That's the whole problem, and it's fixable.
How many photos of your pet do you have on your phone? Tell me in the comments.

The one pet I would turn down. Is there anything that you've been thinking disqualifies your pet from a photo session?

Fall dates are open. Sessions are $185. If you've been thinking about a canvas this year, for your wall or for someone else, fall is a good time to book. Canvas orders can go in as late as December 10 for Christmas. Send me a message if you have questions about your pet. I've heard "he'll never sit still" more times than I can count.

Here's the lowest-pressure thing you can do. Message me your pet's name and the thing you're worried about. Not the polished version. The version where you tell me he has never once come when called or that she'll be under the bed for the entire hour. I'll tell you honestly what I'd do, and if I think you should wait, I'll say that instead of taking your money. Sessions are $185 when you're ready.

When you say your pet is difficult, this is what I actually hear. What does your pet do that you think makes them difficult? Tell me in the comments.
