Although this
is a business enterprise it is, foremost, a passion. Session and production
rates are very affordable allowing most people to be able to pursue
this as an opportunity to create lasting memories. Yes, other area
pet photographers do charge more, but I don't feel compelled to keep
up with their rates.
Session Fee:
$110 (60-minute session) (family and couples sessions are generally
a little longer)
Trip Charge: Nominal charge may apply depending on
location - please inquire.
Editing Time: No additional charge (like I said,
this is a passion ...)
Print and Product Prices: Can be discussed in detail
at consultation (by email, phone, etc.).
I am always saddened when I hear
people speak with regret about not having photos done in the past
because they felt it would be costly or frivolous. In selecting a
pricey photographer, that may be true, but my rates are more than
reasonable, and
I am also happy to work with clients to split payments, if needed,
at no additional fee. Please inquire if this circumstance sounds familiar!
Even in a national recession, an opportunity to preserve a memory
should not be neglected.
Rescue
Support: I offer discounts for rescued pets (10% off all
products) and a generous portion of net product proceeds is donated
to the rescue (or other charity) of your pet's choosing. I have met
hundreds of wonderful animals awaiting forever homes through years
of volunteering and they have given me so much joy, and taught me
so much, that I work to give back to help them wherever I can.
I also participate in Silent Auctions or special events for rescue
organizations when I can.

have been benefited by donation of proceeds or services include:
