You know your dog is unique. You should have photographs that show it. Andrew can capture
that special relationship between you and your canine companion and provide you
with a fine art portrait to treasure for years to come.
His
experience working with animals helps to insure a stress-free experience for
you and your best friend. During your portrait session, he will use treats,
playtime, and plenty of patience to help capture your dog’s personality.
Portraits can be formal or informal and can be of the dog alone or with their
human and canine family members. Whatever approach is chosen, you will take
home portraits that are guaranteed to capture the beauty and individuality of
your beloved companion. If you are not pleased with your portraits, you will be
given your choice of a reshoot or a complete refund.
Because portraits are taken
with a high resolution digital camera and displayed on a computer screen, you
will be able to immediately see and choose a selection of the portraits
you would like proof prints for your friends and family to view before ordering
your final prints.
In addition to archival, high
quality prints, from wallet size to 11x14-inch, a variety of products, such as
clothing, mugs, greeting cards, calendars, can be purchased through our
Cafepress service with the portraits you select. Once the products are
selected, you will be able to order from one to a thousand or more, either from
us or through our Cafepress’ web site.
