I have a budget for photoshoots every month.
And by budget I mean “just dont go overboard” 😂😂 but generally I do what I can to make it happen.
First I think of themes. Then I look on my favorite backdrop website for backdrops that go with these themes. If I can’t find something I like then I move onto a different theme. Sometimes I just can’t make something work.
As for accessories, sometimes I can’t find bandanas or fabric to match the theme. Not in a bulk size/price anyway. So then I find a couple cute accessories that match that I use as a photo prop instead and then the pup goes home with a different accessory. Not all themes are popular enough to find bandanas/bows at a bulk price. Ever since Joann’s went out of business this is what I have done.
I also edit these photos to the full extent of my very amateur photography abilities 😂 I’ve taught my assistants how to edit as well! We aren’t just sending you a photo we took. We spend time at the end of day making them pretty.
Would it be easier to do AI backgrounds? Yes. Would it be as fun or creative or meaningful? No.
My goal for these photoshoots is to give pet parents something cute to set as their phone wallpaper or to print out to hang on the wall. Not everyone is able to capture a cute still photo of their dog, but we are!! (Most of the time haha)
I truly hope you all enjoy these photos as much as I do 🙏🏻
