Begin Your Session

Remember Me sessions is a comprehensive session which may include family members, dress up, and play depending on how your pet is feeling.

Remember Me's sessions focuses mainly on an End Of Life Pet Session and may be cut short in time and be quick for the comfort of your pet. Gallery turnaround is 7-12 business days. 

Remember Me Sessions are reserved for:

Senior Pets ( Over 7yrs)

Pets that are in End Stage of Life.

Pets who have been diagnosed with a terminal diagnosis.

**Please do not request a Remember Me session if you are looking for Family Sessions with your healthy Pet.

For Remember Me's sessions, You and your Pet are my focus. During this difficult time I am here to make it as easy as possible. Generally, calls come in for three types of Remember Me's:

​

1. My Pet is a senior and I'd like to capture picture now; before it's too late. 

2. It's my Pet's transition time. Can you please come and take pictures of their last day with us?

3. My Pet is dying. Will you come to the vet with us (or be with us here at home) as they pass... 

Do not let time, finances or any doubt stop you from getting the memories of your fur baby. 

No matter which one is your situation, I am here for you.

Do not hesitate to reach out to me. 

I Understand.

FOR ALL REMEMBER ME's: I am always available to do Remember Me (End of Life) Requests. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me.  These sessions will be moved to the top of my calendar. **The only time I do not accept a session is when I'm traveling.

Safety at the studio is top priority for clients, pets and Artist. Pets are to be leashed at all times. To avoid  distractions, I ask that owners do not speak or command their pets unless instructed by me.  In the studio your pet MUST see me as a leader in order to focus on my directions when behind the camera.  I will switch your pet to a thin lead to help guide them.  The lead will be edited out in post-processing of images.

AGAIN - PLEASE BE AWARE:

Should a Pet be determined to be too anxious or aggressive the session will be terminated . immediately  

The Artist values the time of every client and expects the same level of respect for her time. Being more than thirty (30) minutes late without prior notice will result in forfeiture of all paid Fees and cancellation of the session. In cases of unexpected events such as illness or accidents, the Artist will make reasonable allowances.

(Remember Me Sessions: If you are running late due to an emergency with your Pet on the day of the session, notify me ASAP...I can meet you at the vet/hospital) 

 *

Should Artist ever happen to be tardy, I will take immediate steps to notify you, and your session will be extended accordingly to ensure that your valuable time is not compromised in any way.

In the unlikely event that I am unable to perform due to an injury, illness, act of God, act of terrorism, or other cause beyond my control; including the COVID-19 outbreak or similar, a new date for your session will be rescheduled at your convenience. If the situation should occur that an unsuitable date is not able to be scheduled, the Artist Fees, Retainer Fees or Donations will be refunded.

For Remember Me sessions a recommended non-refundable  Artist Fee is requested. Part of your donation goes to the Tilly Project and other animal sanctuaries supported by the artist. A minimal part of your fees goes to cover gas costs for the Artist travels and processing of your images.

For all custom digital artwork sessions; a non-refundable Retainer Fee is required to commence work on an art piece. This retainer also serves as a cancellation fee. The fee may be used as a credit towards a future piece upon the Artists approval.

For all portrait sessions, I will spend the first 5 -10 min of the session in play/quiet mode getting to know your pet. This "decompressing" time helps to get pets acclimated to the studio, camera and me. It is a super important bonding time.
