($75 nonrefundable retainer to book)

Each Session Includes:

Ten Minute Portrait Session
3 Digital Images delivered via Digital Download with Print Release
Online Gallery to Choose Favorites

Approximately 6-12 images will be presented as proofs to choose your three images. You may choose to purchase additional images upon reviewing your gallery, but this is not required. Additional proceeds from portrait orders WILL STILL BE DONATED TO THE SHELTER. Add-on images will be $35 per image.

Sessions will be held Friday, November 22 at Johnny Henderson Park in Enterprise. Rain or Shine - We will have a canopy set up for the session area.

We will not have any special set planned for these portraits, just the backdrop of the woods in the park with your beautiful families and pets.

For the safety of our clients, please keep your pets leashed to and from the photography area. Clean up after them if they potty.

You know your pet better than anyone else - if they may be confrontational upon seeing other animals, this may not be the best fit for them, so PLEASE plan accordingly.

Additional donations for the shelter will be collected on the day of the event including, but not limited to: pet food (dry and wet), treats and bones, cat litter, sanitizing wipes, bleach, dawn dish detergent and paper towels.

The retainer is nonrefundable in the event of a client cancelation as we cannot fill another slot once it is booked.

Any session where a patron does not show will be considered a donation to the S.O.S. Shelter.

Please select your date and time from the drop down menu options below.
