F.A.Q.s

  • The are 30-minute long sessions for dogs on a Christmas-themed setup (backdrop and props). They take place in a studio environment (indoors, using professional studio lighting). Dogs must be able to sit and wait on command.

    We offer a unique package price of £50, including the session and 3 digital images.

    This is the early bird price. Grab your spot before 3 October at midnight UK time! After that, the price will increase to £60.

    Please note: We require full payment ahead to secure your booking. This payment is NON-REFUNDABLE. If you want to cancel or are late to your session and miss it, we will be unable to reimburse you.

    This is because we have to pay in advance for everything to organise this event.

  • We require a minimum number of participants to proceed with these taster sessions.
    We will require full payment to secure your spot.
    However, if we need to cancel due to an insufficient number of participants, we will reimburse you the full amount by 31st October at the latest.

  • For now, yes. Our sessions are available on a first-come-first served-basis and capped at 12 bookings. If you weren't able to grab a spot, please fill in your details at the bottom of the page to be on our waiting list. If enough people are interested, we may be able to add another date.

  • The short answer is no.

    Each session lasts 30 minutes.

    Please note that if you are late, we cannot extend your session, as there will be someone else coming after you.

    If you are too late and missed your session, we will not be able to do your session, and we will not be able to refund your money as we use it to pay for the event.

  • Studio environments aren’t for every dog, as they are small and contain props and flashing lights (not suitable for epileptic dogs!)

    Dogs must be able to sit and wait on command and hold their wait even with you stepping away a few yards.

    If your dog cannot hold a sit and wait, it’s not the end of the world; you can always book one of our longer outdoor sessions, where they can run around and be themselves. These studio sessions simply wouldn’t be suitable for them. If in doubt, get in touch.

  • The session takes place on 1st November.

    A few days after the session, you'll receive a link by email to your preview online gallery.

    You'll then have 1 week to select the images and any extra products you want (so you get them on time for Xmas!).

    • Digital images will be accessible online.

    • Add-on cards and prints will be either delivered by us or by post.

  • Each session lasts 30 minutes. Hopefully, everyone arrives on time so there is no clash but at any rate, the venue is a doggy daycare centre and has a separate room and hallway to the main area.

    Please note that if you are late, we cannot extend your session, as there will be someone else coming after you.

    If you are too late and missed your session, we will not be able to do your session, and we will not be able to refund your money as we use it to pay for the event.

  • These sessions take place in a relatively small studio environment. We can accommodate up to 3 small dogs (e.g. chihuahuas) / 2 medium dogs (e.g. French bulldogs) / 1 large dog (e.g. GSD). Giant breeds may fit, depending on how well they can hold a sit/down. Get in touch if you are unsure of how suitable these sessions might be for your doggy.

    Please note: Mixed-breeds more than welcome! The breeds above are just for an idea of size.

  • If you want "natural" images in the end, we recommend using a thin collar instead of a harness. Leads and thin collars are much easier to edit out than huge harnesses. But if you want to make it a feature, by all means feel free to use your favourite collar, harness or even Xmas jumper!

  • Absolutely! We even encourage you to have photographs taken with your best friend.

    Most of us have hundreds (if not thousands) of images of our dog on our phone, but very few of us and our dog together!

    Feel free to wear your best Xmas jumper as well!

  • The package price is £50 and includes the session and 1 product of your choice: either 3 x digital images, or a pack of 10 x Christmas cards, or a beautiful 10x8” print.

    If you'd like to purchase more products, our add-on prices are as below:

    • Pack of 10 Xmas cards £25

    • 8x6" print: £25

    • 10x8" print: £30

    • Extra digitals: £20 for 1, £50 for 3 and £80 for 5.

  • When you purchase our digital images, they come with a print release. This means you have the freedom to print and display your photos in any size and quantity you desire, without any additional fees!

    Benefits of a print release:

    ✔️ Unlimited prints: Print as many copies as you like, in any size.

    ✔️ Personal use: Use your images for personal projects, gifts, or home décor.

    ✔️ High quality: Enjoy the best quality prints

    Quality photography is an investment that lasts a lifetime.

    Thank you for understanding the value and effort behind each shot!

  • These Xmas sessions are for dogs only but if you want images of other pets/animals, get in touch and we’ll discuss a bespoke session for you on a different day.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: We require a minimum number of participants to proceed with these taster sessions. We will require full payment to secure your spot. However, if we need to cancel due to an insufficient number of participants, we will reimburse you the full amount.

—————————————————————————-

Bookings open on 19 September and will be available on a first-come-first-served basis. We will release new slots as they become available.

We only have one date available (01/11/2024) at the moment. However, if enough people find themselves unable to book and on our waitlist, we’ll do our best to organise a second date.

Once again, thank you ever so much for your interest and support 🙏

Meet Roxane

This video is for show only. The backdrop and props on the day may differ.

Hi there! I’m Roxane, a dog photographer with a deep love for all things furry, feathered, and even a little bit creepy-crawly (don't judge!). Growing up in the bubbly region of Champagne, I've always had a deep connection to nature and animals.

Whether I’m out hiking, camping under the stars, or listening to the chatter of bats in the night, I find pure joy in the great outdoors. When I'm not out exploring, you'll find me indulging in good food (but not cooking it!) and planning my next travel adventure.

So, why did I become a photographer? Well, it's a bit of a personal story. I lost my beloved cat when I was younger and, more recently, my grandfather. I deeply regretted the lack of good photos to remember them by. So I picked up a camera. I want to make sure that you never have to face the same regret.

My mission is to create high-quality, versatile images that capture the unique personalities of your pets—pictures that can brighten up your workspace or bring a smile to your face whenever you see them on your desk. Let’s create some memories together!

Why get a Xmas dog photography session with us?
