FAQ

Do I have to make a purchase?

No – what you decide to purchase is completely up to you!  We do warn all of our clients beforehand that you WILL fall in love with the images – but there is never any pressure should you choose not to.

Can I get the Digital files?

Yes!  We include a social digital file (watermarked) alongside any artwork that you buy.  

You can also purchase individual printable digitals, prices for one file vary between £75 – £25 depending on what you have purchased.

How much would it cost if I want them all?

We hear this alot!  do offer our Bob Box of 15 prints (expect to choose from around 20 images).

Additional printable digitals can then be purchased for £50 each , so you can add as many others as you want!

Can I purchase at a later date?

No – we only sell our artwork in person on the day.  The bespoke nature of the finishes and options is not something that can be chosen online.  We do offer payment plan options though should you wish to choose now and pay later.

KIND WORDS

Was a little apprehensive about our photo shoot as we had 4 dogs of different characters, all nervous of new situations and people. We were instantly put at ease, the dogs relaxed quickly and we got some amazing photos. Never thought we’d get one of all 4 and we had a few to pick from!

We had the most amazing experience today with our 7, it’s not just anywhere people would say yes bring all seven dogs with you and not care of the chaos.
All of my dogs have very different personalities and she somehow managed to capture that in all of her photos. I am so excited to receive them! Highly recommended, would give them more than 5 stars if I could.
we have the most amazing shots of our boy Louie. Best thing we ever did as sadly we lost him in August but we have some truly unique pictures of him.

TIMINGS FOR YOUR EXPERIENCE

We say to allow 2 hours in total for your experience with us!  

After your shoot which is about 30 mins, you have the option for a short walk in the English Heritage grounds.  You will then watch a cinematic slideshow over a cup of tea or coffee, and with the guidance of our friendly photographers, choose what would work best for you in your home. 

We allow up to an hour for this, as it can be hard to choose between all of the photographs, but it is a fun, guided experience here as well.

Once ordered you usually receive your digitals the same day – and your Artwork can also be delivered directly to your home should you find that easier, or have travelled a long way to visit us.

Where is the Studio?
Studio shoots are at our specifically designed Dog studio set on the beautiful English Heritage grounds of Waverley Abbey.

Parking is right outside the studio doors, with level access to the studio, and a safe large walled car park.

What if my dog is anxious?

We are used to all different characters of dog from nervous rescues, reactive/aggressive, or just plain active and noisy! We know how to get the best from any character, and will always put the well being and safety of your dog first.

There are some great advantages to being in the studio, as we control the environment, and dogs feel at ease and relaxed a lot quicker with less stimuli. 

My dog won't sit still.

If only I had a pound for every time I’ve heard this! The shoot is a fluid and fun process, involving if needed play and fast reactions! Generally a speedy terrier or spaniel is easier to photograph than if a dog is nervous or timid, as they react well to games!

Dogs are at the heart of what we do – and we make them the centre of your experience with us. Not only will we achieve amazing artistic portraits for you to cherish forever, but it is also a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend some time doing an activity with your dog to always remember.
