So you’ve made the decision that your perfect fuzzy friend needs their own official portrait. What now?
Mostly I keep things simple
Prices start at $295 for 1-3 animals. If you have a larger menagerie you’d like photographs of, there will be an additional fee. This includes the session and your finished fully edited digital images (usually around 15). These will be edited to perfection and delivered to you either via dropbox (or USB if preferable) within a week of your shoot.
Just let me know who you’d like photographing and if you’re more keen to shoot outside on location or in the studio. Or a combo of the two! Attaching a photo is helpful both for me to know which background colours to use with your babe and also for me to go “awww look at the paws!”.
I’m happy to work with any animal and any breed. If you have a couple of pets that you would like photographing together – but they don’t really get on, we can discuss using photoshop to make them look like they do!
If you have any worries or concerns over how your pet might react to being photographed, just drop me a line and we can have a chat about the best way to make it work. My number one priority is to make sure your pet is happy. No good photographs come from an animal being scared or upset. We want waggy tails and purrs please!
I have a portable background and lighting setup which I find works best for kitties. For the most part they don’t like to travel! So I can come to your home and set up in a place that’s familiar and comfy for them. This option is absolutely available for dogs too but if they’re on the larger side, a studio shoot usually works better!
Here’s a few words from lovely people I’ve worked with 🙂
“Catherine’s love for animals really shines through while she’s doing her thing! She is so patient with the cats and works WITH them, capturing only their best sides. Such a special thing to have of your beloved fur babies ” – Casi R
“Catherine shot our little pup in a mini shoot as a gift from a friend. The photos were absolutely amazing and really did our little girl justice. Would highly recommend her for pet photoshoots (particularly with highly distractible hyperactive dogs!)” – Jeff & Konny B
“I literally treasure my photographs by Catherine Holmes Photography. She captured my pets perfectly and was very gentle and caring with them in the process of photographing them ” – Indy R
“Catherine is a kind, wonderful human being and an amazing photographer. She was so good with Pippin and captured his personality wonderfully in the photographs that she took. I would 100% recommend Catherine (and do) to anyone looking to have beautiful images of their pets that perfectly encompasses their personality. Thanks again” – Sarah M
If this is all sounding good to you, then just drop me a line at cathy.holmes@gmail.com. Then all you need to worry about is how many bowties you’re going to buy your pet for their big day 🙂
