Locations:
We want you to have the best photographs possible with your pets and have several locations we can suggest to offer you and pets a stunning background for the photo shoot. We are also able to photograph you and your pets in the comfort of your own home. We also do shoots at agility and breed show events to capture your talented animals in action. Reserving your time slot:
In order to reserve your photo shoot's date and time, we require 50% of the session charge as a non-refundable deposit to be made when booking your appointment. The outstanding fee can be paid on the day of or before the date of your photo shoot. We require a minimum of 7 business days (Monday to Friday) notice in order to reschedule a session or you will lose your deposit. You are entitled to one free reschedule. Travel costs:
Travel inside the City of Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni Municipalities is included in your package price. Travel costs outside of these regions will be discussed for each appointment. Before your photo shoot:
Please arrive at the confirmed location of the photo shoot at least 10-15 minutes prior to the start of the shoot. This will allow the photographers to get acquainted with you and your animals and find the best spots to capture your pets in the best way possible. If you are going to join your pets in the photographs, please ensure that any make-up or preparations are completed before the shoot as we will not be able to give you additional time over and above your session slot. During your photo shoot:
Our photographer, Melissa, shares a deep love, passion and understanding of animals. During your shoot she will take a range of photographs to capture your pet (and you if you would like at no extra charge) enjoying the environment around them. Your animals do not need to have any training, she will still be able to capture some fantastic shots during the shoot no matter how your pet behaves. We recommend bringing some treats and/or toys that can be used to attract your animals attention. The most important element of her work is that you and your pet(s) have fun during the photo shoot. After your photo shoot:
We will need approximately 4 weeks to edit your images and will then email the low resolution, watermarked images to you so that you can decide which images you would like to have printed as part of your selected package. We will allow clients up to one week to choose their images and the final date for this selection will be given to you upon receiving your low resolution images via email. Once you have selected your images we will need approximately 2 weeks for printing of your photographs and 3 weeks for any canvas printing. Photographs will eventually be deleted but we will contact you prior to this happening as a last resort. About the photographer:
