Should I Get Professional Photos of My Dog?

By Chantell Schulz • August 13, 2025
Your dog isn’t just a pet...they’re family. While smartphones can capture everyday moments, professional photography offers something more: the chance to truly capture your dog’s personality, energy, and spirit in a way that lasts a lifetime. If you’ve ever wondered whether a professional photo session is worth it, here are five reasons to consider it.

Best Season For Pet Photography?

By Chantell Schulz • August 7, 2025
If you’re thinking about booking a dog photoshoot but aren’t sure when to do it, you’re not alone. One of the most common questions I get is: “What season is best for dog photos?” The truth? Every season brings out something unique in your dog’s personality, and the right one depends on the vibe you’re going for. Here’s a breakdown to help you decide what’s right for your furbaby:

Dog Friendly Places To Visit

By Chantell Schulz • July 31, 2025
As a proud dog mom, I’m always asking: “Can I bring my dog?” And if the answer is no, I’m usually not that interested. If you're the same way, this blog is your go-to list of dog-friendly chain stores and restaurants in Alberta , the places where you don’t have to leave your pup at home or in the car. Whether you're running errands or planning a patio date, here’s where dogs are welcome too.

What If My Dog Doesn’t Sit Still?

By Chantell Schulz • July 24, 2025
Let’s be real...most dogs aren’t exactly known for sitting still. Yet, time after time, I hear the same worry from loving dog moms: “I’d love to book a session, but my dog’s way too hyper.”  “She never listens outside the house.”  “He won’t sit for more than a second!” Sound familiar? If this is you, take a breath. You’re not alone, and no, your furbaby does not need to be perfectly behaved to get stunning photos.

What No One Tells You About Senior Dogs

By Chantell Schulz • July 16, 2025
The quiet, beautiful chapter they never prepare you for. There’s a moment...sometimes small, sometimes impossible to ignore... when you realize your dog is slowing down. Maybe they don’t jump into the car like they used to, maybe their zoomies have turned into slow tail wags, or perhaps it’s the white fur creeping across their muzzle. No one prepares you for this part of it: The senior dog chapter. It’s quieter, gentler, sometimes frustrating, always emotional, and yet, it might be the most deeply connected season you’ll ever share.

What I Notice About Your Dog That You Might Not See

By Chantell Schulz • July 10, 2025
As a dog photographer, I get to meet pups from every walk of life: the bold and bouncy, the shy and gentle, the stubborn goofballs, and the soulful old souls. Every time, without fail, I catch something that even the most devoted dog moms don’t always see: The way their pup leans just a little closer when they’re unsure. The soft squint in their eyes when they’re happy. The proud little puff of their chest when they feel confident. That split-second moment when they look at you like you’re their whole world. These aren’t things you can pose or plan, but I live for them.

Why Does My Dog Act So Different at Home vs. in Public?

By Chantell Schulz • July 2, 2025
At home, your dog is relaxed. Playful. Maybe a little goofy. You know their quirks, their routines, and the way they light up your life without even trying. But outside? Things shift. They might get overwhelmed. Overexcited or suddenly unsure of everything. If you’ve ever thought, “This isn’t the dog I know…” You’re not alone. And more importantly, your dog isn’t doing anything wrong.

What's the Best Age for Dog Photos?

By Chantell Schulz • June 19, 2025
Short answer? Every age is the perfect age. Long answer? Let’s break it down. Whether your pup is still all paws and zoomies, in their confident prime, or starting to slow down, each chapter tells a different story. Every single one is worth capturing.

Can Reactive Dogs Still Get Professional Photos?

By Chantell Schulz • June 12, 2025
Think your dog is too reactive for a professional photoshoot? Think again. This guide explains how I safely and confidently photograph reactive dogs and why they deserve to be celebrated too.
