Before the session, ensure both your baby and pet are well-rested and fed. If they’re both tired and hungry this can be difficult to work with. If you have an active dog, we recommend letting them burn off some energy before the session to ensure they are more relaxed and cooperative. Compliant dogs are much easier to work with, we like to chat about this before booking.
A controlled studio environment can be ideal for pet and baby photography. It provides a safe, comfortable space with controlled lighting and a neutral aesthetic. This setting is particularly effective for young children and pets, offering warmth and familiarity.
Use minimal props to avoid overwhelming your subjects. Simple, neutral backgrounds keep the focus on the baby and pet.
For babies, soft, comfortable clothing is best. For pets, consider cute accessories like bandanas or bow ties.
Working with babies and pets requires so much patience. Allow plenty of time for breaks, especially if either subject becomes fussy or restless.
Some of the best photos we’ve taken have been at this age. Babies are so much more animated and full of giggles and character.
Let the baby and pet interact naturally to capture genuine, heartfelt moments.
