Products

Outdoor sessions are a great fit for:

Dogs who feel most comfortable outside

Puppies, seniors, and everything in between

Dogs who love to run, sniff, splash, or cuddle

Families who want images of life with their dog, not just a posed portrait

Sessions are calm, flexible, and guided entirely by your dog. It’s a dog’s world we’re just along for the ride!

Who are these sessions for

Outdoor dog photography sessions are available at select spots throughout the Hudson Valley and Capital Region, including in Saratoga Springs, Albany and Clifton Park.

Locations are chosen based on your dog’s personality, comfort level and the look you’re hoping to achieve.

My location guide will be emailed prior to our complimentary consultation call to help guide the decision-making process.

Choosing a Location

Every outdoor session is thoughtfully planned to keep things stress-free and fun.

Your session includes:

A pre-session consultation to choose the best location

A relaxed, dog-led photo experience

Patience, breaks, and plenty of positive reinforcement

A curated online gallery of professionally edited images

I’ll guide you throughout the session while letting your dog set the pace — whether that means zoomies, quiet moments, or lots of treats in between.

Outdoor photography isn’t for every dog, but there are still options for you!
