Yes you can! We welcome all Phoenix dogs to get involved in Tails of the World to help support their fellow Phoenix pups in need through AZK9 Rescue.

Your dog does not need to be still during our session. Your dog doesn’t need to know any cues, yes that is right! We practice our dog photography with force free methods. What does “force free” mean? It’s also referred to as R+, which is positive reward based methods. It means that we will not be punishing your dog in any way, we won’t be forcing them to do anything that they do not want to do. We will be allowing them to make their own choices and encourage them to be themselves so that we can capture them as they are. Your dog will lead the session, if they want to look off in to the distance, then you will look off in to the distance with them, if they want to plop and rollover for belly rubs, then we give belly rubs.

The experience.
At Pup + Me Photo we are all about the love and connection between Phoenix dogs and their people, showing you and your pup’s unique relationship through wall art, fine art albums, and other heirloom products.
During our session, we want your dog to be themselves and have the best time. We encourage them to sniff and play during the session, and we use force free methods to make ensure that they feel comfortable. We don’t even ask your dog to sit during the session, yup that’s right! We want them to do what they want, but mostly, we want you to love on them and tell them what a perfect pup they are.
Within a few weeks, you'll have the opportunity to view and purchase your beautiful photos from your session. Be prepared for plenty of happy tears as you see for the first time the portraits that took that show the love between you and your pup.
