Thinking about photos of your dog but worried they won’t cooperate?
You are actually my exact kind of client.

Most of the dogs I photograph: 
• pull on leash • can’t stay • get distracted • are shy with strangers • or have zero obedience training

They still get beautiful photos.

My sessions are built around patience and understanding behaviour, not forcing poses. We take breaks, let dogs explore, and work at their pace. Safety always comes first — even leashed dogs can look off-leash in final images.

You don’t need a perfect dog. You just need your dog.

If you’ve been waiting for them to “behave better” before booking, this is your sign not to wait.

Talk to me about your dog today!

Part III of a very memorable legacy photo session with three beautiful seniors loved by Souha Ezzedeen of @wayoflifedogtraining

Meet Nejra, my most favourite of the three. Her eyes, her behaviour and temperament make her pretty special indeed! I included a few extra of my own favourites too!

Just a side note that I had a change of plans for tomorrow if anyone is interested in booking a session!

Part II of my beautiful winter session with the three senior dogs.

I loved capturing her beloved dogs behind my lens at a fantastic location. My outdoor portraits are some of my most favourite sessions to do.

Meet Bruna, the second eldest. I'm so grateful she will have these memories to treasure for years to come.

Remember your dog's don't need training and certainly do not need to be off leash. I love to be able to capture the real side of your dog and not always the forced pose photos. Don't wait till it's too late!

I have been looking forward to sharing the results of a fabulous winter session I had a bit ago with Souha Ezzedeen with Way of Life Dog Training and her three beautiful senior dogs.
I absolutely love to spend the time capturing our most treasured friends behind my lens, particularly as they are aging. Preserving them for many years to come to reflect back on and remember them by.
We captured a lot of photos that day and the location was in Grafton as she's from Toronto and we met somewhat halfway. it's a favourite spot of mine in all seasons!
We'll start with her eldest, Kizzy. She was quite happy to have me follow her with my lens! I must admit the playtime connection are some of my favourites!

Be sure to book with me soon! Check out my new website design www.arttina.com
