Frequently asked questions

Can I be in the photos?

Yes, of course. We encourage you to be in the pictures because it helps to show the connection between you. Don’t worry, if you are camera shy, you don’t even need to show your face. 

Yes, its ok if you want to bring more than one pup with you. It just might take a little longer.

Weather can be unpredictable, but we have flexible rescheduling options to ensure your photo session takes place under ideal conditions. There is also the option of the Rustie and co studio. Weather does not affect this scheduling. 

It might surprise you if I told you that most of the dogs in the photos had their lead on, including mine. I can remove these from the images in post production. For reactive dogs I know of a few quiet spots, but we also have the option of photographing at your property or at my dog free studio.

We use high-quality, durable materials for our prints and products. They are designed to withstand various environmental conditions, including humidity. The supplier has a warranty on all its products, so you can be confident your memories will be preserved beautifully for years to come.

All the products on offer are of the highest quality.This means they do come at a price. We do have some lower cost items however, and there is also the option of Afterpay.

Yes, we definitely photograph any animals you would like, including reptiles. We love all creatures great and small…unless you have a pet leech of course..we draw the line at leeches.
