sessions
Indoor or outdoor? Choosing the right photo session for your dog
One of the most common questions we get is “which session should I book?” There’s no wrong answer, but the right setting can make a big difference to how relaxed your dog feels and the kind of photos you end up with. Here’s how we’d think about it.
Indoor sessions: cosy, quiet and on home turf
The Snug Indoor happens in your home, using soft window light and the places your dog already loves: the sofa, their bed, the sunny spot on the landing.
Great for:
- Senior dogs and dogs with mobility issues (more on photographing older dogs)
- Puppies who aren’t fully vaccinated yet
- Dogs who are anxious in new places
- Cuddly, sleepy, sofa-hog personalities
- Winter, when daylight outside is short
You’ll get: warm, intimate, everyday moments — the photos that feel like home.
Outdoor sessions: sniffs, splashes and golden light
The Outdoor Adventure takes place somewhere your dog loves to explore: a park, woodland, beach or favourite walk.
Great for:
- Confident, social dogs who enjoy being out and about
- Families who’d like to be in the photos together
- Seasonal shots: autumn leaves, bluebells, summer evenings
- Dogs with lots of energy to burn
You’ll get: movement, scenery and the joy of your dog doing what they love most.
The Pro Session: indoors or a private field
The Pro Session is our longest and most flexible option. It can be held indoors or at a secure, fenced private field booked just for you.
Great for:
- Reactive dogs who need a space with no surprises
- Dogs still working on recall who’d love to be off-lead
- Multi-dog households
- Anyone who wants the full gallery and something special for the wall
You’ll get: the most variety — zoomies, portraits, quiet moments and plenty of time for everything. Here’s why we love private fields.
Three quick questions to help you decide
- Where is your dog happiest? Curled up at home, out exploring, or running flat-out?
- How are they with other dogs and busy places? If the answer is “not great”, home or a private field will be the most relaxing.
- What do you want on your wall? Cosy everyday moments, adventure shots, or a bit of everything?
Our three-question quiz on the homepage will suggest a match based on exactly these questions.
