CANINE COLLECTIONS
No matter if your dog is your farm buddy, hunting partner, or best friend, there’s a session here for you. Each session includes a zoom or phone call consultation. These sessions are designed to highlight your dog and the relationship you share, using natural landscapes and the beautiful light of sunrise or sunset.
Dogs are primarily photographed on leash for safety, with leashes professionally removed during the editing process. Dogs of all ages and training levels are welcome. Sessions can be tailored to capture the relationship you have with your dog, the role they play in your life or family, or to create promotional images for a dog-related business. They can also be used for showcasing a dog at stud or for conformation-style portraits.
Dogs are family, and your session can include the people who love them most. Whether it's your children growing up alongside your dog, a couple celebrating their first dog together, or simply the bond between you and your best friend, these moments are worth preserving.
Every collection includes a pre session consultation, the option to include additional horses and dogs, professionally hand-edited images, a private gallery, and access to heirloom artwork.

"I cannot recommend Maren and her team enough- she captures the essence of a dog so well. She has done many different types of photoshoots for me as both a dog breeder and professional handler. Her shoots are very organic and always professional. She is always open to feedback and is upfront with her expectations.
It's very clear that Maren enjoys her work and you can see it both within her final product and how she coordinates and executes her own shoots.
My team will always be using Maren whenever we need more memories captured in the future."

Canine Session
My dog is not well trained, anxious, or a puppy.
Come one come all!! Most of my client's dogs are not trained! This absolutely FINE! My camera will take photos at 1/2500s of a second! If your dog is anxious, or untrained we will take our time. I have lots of experience with untrained dogs and I offer tips and training techniques to help your dog stay involved and curious!
Does my dog have to be off leash for the photoshoot?
If you’re not comfortable having your dog off-leash, that’s absolutely fine! Leashes and collars can be seamlessly removed during post-production using Photoshop (see examples below).
However, if you prefer to have your dog off-leash in a safe, controlled environment like a fenced yard or paddock, it’s a fantastic way to capture their genuine reactions and unique personality. Either way, we can create stunning photos of your dog, with or without a leash.
I do recommend bringing your dog with minimal “clothing.” This means avoiding harnesses or multiple collars, as it makes editing much easier. If there’s a specific item you’d like included in the photos, such as a special collar or accessory, let me know, and we can incorporate it into the shoot!
Can I be in the photos?
Please!! Our dogs are our babies! We want them to be remembered in every way!
how many dogs are included in the session?
All the dogs in your household!
My dog is a senior and we don't know how much longer we'll have them
I'm so sorry. It's painful that we only have our dogs for a limited amount of time. I will do everything I can to fit you into my schedule.
