FAQ's




Do I have to come in for a design consultation?

No, we will come to you.
At the design consultation we'll meet you and your pets. Have your pet
get to know us a little. We'll learn about your pet and your relationship
with them. Based on what we learn from you, we'll make suggestions for
images to capture the essence of your pet's personality and your relationship.
We find having done the design consultation in advance makes the session go
much more smoothly.


How much are session fees and what do they cover?

We offer several options starting at $120.00.
This includes the design consultation, the actual photo shooting
and a picture package.

If you’d like more information, please visit our pricing page or
send us an email.


I don't have a pet.
Does Southern Pet Pics do only Pet Photography?


Even if our major is Pet Photography, of course we are your
partner for all your photography needs.
Family- and Single-Portrait, Events, and so much more.
If you need a picture, we would be honored to be your partner.


How do I, or my friends/family cman purchase pictures?

All Pictures will be available online to view and order.
At your request they can be password protected, and you decide
who will be able to view and order those photos.

Please visit our Portfolio site to see examples from recent events.


How do I prepare for a session?

Humans and pets need to be groomed as they want to appear in the photograph.
Additionally, it is very helpful if the dogs are tired and a little hungry.
Be sure to have his/hers favorite toys and treats handy.


Does my dog have to be well trained?

It is most helpful if your dog knows basic commands.
The better your dog knows basic commands the more time we can spend
being creative.

If your dog is shy, does not take commands well or has a short attention
span, you may want to purchase a session package with a long enough session
time to make sure we have the time needed to work with your pup.


What if my dog doesn't behave during the session?

We are quite knowledgeable about dog behavior.
We can usually get good images even if the pup doesn’t want to cooperate.
We highly recommend you play with your pup prior to the session so he/she
is tired. For added security you may want to purchase a long enough session
package to insure that we have enough time to work with your pup.


What forms of payment do you accept?

We accept cash & checks as well as credit card payment via PayPal.

There is a $25 fee for returned checks.
