Studio sessions are easily my favorite because it’s so fun seeing these pup’s personalities come out in front of the camera. These sessions are 1 hour in total. It’s the perfect amount of time to get your dog comfortable first, allow play time, and capture your pup with all of those in between unposed moments.

Bring your dog’s favorite stuffy, treats, or anyone who is sure to put a smile on that dial.

Where’s the Studio?

I have 2 different ways I offer Studio Sessions.

First is PeerSpace! Peerspace is an online rental company that allows me to find unique studios in different cities to host my photoshoots. These spaces are rented by the hour and will be incorporated into the session fee if we are shooting in a studio space.

Second way I offer studio sessions are in your home! Yep! You read that right. I have all the equipment I need to host a pop-up anywhere which means I can come straight to you. For in-home sessions, I just need a 10×10 space to set up a backdrop, two stands, and 1 light!

What to expect during your session:

Before we even start your session, we will book a consult call either in person or over Zoom. This will allow me to ask some questions about your dog and really get to know them before we even pick up the camera.

After our consult, we will decide on our shooting date and location. From here, a 50% deposit is required to secure your booking.

~Client Reviews~

“Cassie is AMAZING! Her love and care for the session is unmatched. On the initial consultation, Cassie went over everything I needed and what to expect from my session with my dog Titan. Cassie's spirit really speaks through her craft and creativity. Such a great person inside and out and she will definitely give her full attention to make sure you have the best experience working with her!"

— Andre M. + Titan

“We absolutely LOVED having Cassie here at PBHS. She took the most incredible portraits of our 12 long term residents here at the shelter. To see them warm up to her and give the biggest smiles for their portraits, truly brought tears to our eyes. She has an incredible vibe and you can see how much she loves what she does. Her work has helped our animal shelter tremendously on finding loving homes for our longer term residents. We cannot recommend her enough!”

“We booked Cassie to take some portraits in her studio of our Great Dane Otis. My only regret is that we did not hire her sooner to have these precious moments documented sooner. We have since lost our boy and these photos mean more than the world to me.”
