Dogs are our everything.

We love our dogs.

 

It’s a fact - Dogs are the best. We’ve been loving dogs for about 10,000 years now and the connection we have with our furry friends is undeniable. Our pups are loyal, express gratitude, and allow us to get more playtime in our busy days.  

We are only given a short period of time to be with them. They come into our life, make us laugh, warm our hearts, open our minds, and give us unconditional love. I truly believe that the saying “we don’t deserve dogs” is correct.

Your Shoot

You probably have really great pictures of your dog on your phone. It's those candid moments when your pup is at home being silly, lying around doing nothing, or grabbing a slipper!

But there is something special about working with a photographer and your dog. 

For a brief moment you can just relax and play with your friend and let someone else capture the photos. 

Our shoots are simple: we go to a fun place and let your dog play. Show me your favorite tricks! Show me around the park! Show me what makes you both smile.

Afterwards you will get some incredible pictures for your walls! You will have a forever memory of your time being free and alive with your best friend.

Testimonials

It’s my joy to photograph and connect with you and your precious pups. Dogs have given me a lifeline more times than I can count, maybe you can relate. It’s the unconditional love and reciprocation of care. Their curiosity, bravery and excitement. They bring so much joy!

Handing over the images and seeing your reaction is such a special part of the process. 

But it’s not important what I think or feel, it’s more important how YOU feel. Here are some testimonials from my clients and their experience.

 
 

  • I met Heather at the Dog Yard; our pup Summit immediately made a friend. Her love for the pups and her work is contagious.

    She shot and put together our first Holiday card and it came out amazing! She captured our love for the outdoors and Summit’s love for all things water.

    We would highly recommend her for any of your photography needs! It was a collaborative, stress free and engaging experience! 

  • Heather was absolutely incredible with Baker. She made sure Baker was having a great time (he's literally smiling in every photo). It honestly felt like a fun play session with Baker rather than a structured photoshoot, and Heather was able to capture his personality and playfulness so authentically. The session was the perfect balance of both professional (organized, communicative, clear, prompt) and personable (friendly, encouraging, fun). We love our photos so much and will cherish them forever!! Thank you!

  • We met Heather for a short photo session of our pup Maya outside Marymoor Dog Park. Heather was a delight to work with and accommodating for our leash reactive pup. Her enthusiasm and love for photography and dogs are really evident, making the whole experience fun!

    The pictures we received are just adorable! She captured all of Maya’s smiles while playing with her frisbee. Anyone looking for a pet photographer, we highly recommend Heather! Maya recommends Heather for the tasty treats provided!

 
 
 

The process.

You’re ready to shoot and get the best images of your pup. Let me walk you through the steps so you know what to expect!

  • Send me a message about your dog. We’ll schedule a time to sit down to talk so I can learn what you want from the shoot, location options, and scheduling. I’ll answer all your questions and we will find the right package for you so you can pay your deposit.

  • We will go to the location and shoot. Most shoots take about 45-60 minutes. This is an active time where you and your dog will be running, playing, exploring and more.

  • I will send you a contact sheet within 72 hours of the shoot. You can make all of your selections for digital and print images. The digital files will be delivered within 1-2 weeks. The prints should be back from the lab within 10-15 business days. I can mail them or drop them off to you!

Digital Copies and Physical Prints

You can have your cake and eat it too.

I offer both digital and physical prints. Digital prints are perfect to use as your wallpaper, screensaver, social media, to email to family, and everything else we do with our online lives.

Nothing beats the prints. What would feel better than a little print of your favorite good girl by your bedside? Or a large quality print of your good boy in your living room?

I work with the best printers and materials. Giclée printing gives a smooth gradient transition and a wider color gamut. In other words, more depth and richness to the final print, which helps to create stunning vibrant artwork. We use archival Hahnemuhle fine art paper. This will ensure your prints hold up throughout your lifetime.

The best is: the more you buy, the more you save!
