Welcome to Chris Peppers’ Pet Photography sessions. Catering to Lambton Shores and the surrounding areas. Chris is a published wildlife and landscape photographer who also runs guided photography trips across Canada.

Since Chris was a child, he was always raised with dogs in his home. At the age of twenty seven, he decided to breed Barbet’s (French Waterdogs). For eight years puppy and pet photo sessions were happening all the time, at his home.

Chris also boarded dogs for many years, offering pet parents images to know their loved ones were having fun everyday. He has competed with dogs in hunting field trials, conformation ring, agility and K9 good neighbour programs.

Chris understands when those special moments arrive with your pet, it is time to capture that moment for a memory. We are so fortunate to have such great companions with us in life. Some loyal protectors of the family, complete goofballs, love bugs, or others are a creature of the couch waiting for us to feed them like a servant.

Quite often life gets busy and we forget to capture some special memories of our dear friends. Many photo shoots happen for just that reason and I would like to provide memorable images for you and the family.

#1 BASIC PACKAGE

Our most popular package offers an outdoor photo shoot using natural light. This captures your loved ones best angles in their element. This session is just over an hour long, we try not to put a time restriction on capturing the best images possible so it may be longer if time is needed. This session offers 10+ edited high resolution images that will be shared with you online. We can also offer smaller file sizes for you to share on your social media pages.

• The cost for this session is $199.00 plus HST

• One location (ideally a well lit area for best images)

• One pet (additional price of $100.00 per extra pet)

 #2 THE CREATIVE PACKAGE

In this package we can take our time to be creative with your pet. This may include dressing up a pet in a costume you provide, or a setting them on a tractor, in a driver seat of a car, or anything creative you would like. This shoot can really showcase your pet’s personality.

Please understand these photoshoots require patience, proper lighting and one dog owner to help me place and ensure the safety of the pet at all times. This session is max 2 hours long, additional time will be charged at $50.00 an hour. This session offers 10+ edited high resolution images that will be shared with you online. We can also offer smaller file sizes for you to share on your social media pages.

• The cost for this session is $299.00 plus HST

• One location (can do indoors + provide studio lighting + backdrop if needed)

• One Pet (additional $75.00 per extra pet)

#3 FARM & YARD PACKAGE

Farm and yard pets can take some time to get the desired images. This photo shoot would possibly require some scouting for best light and backgrounds. The client prior to the photo shoot date, should be clear if they are looking for colour or black and white images. So, we can shoot appropriately on location. All large pets, will require an experienced handler of the species required to photograph. If this is a wild animal and you want images, we can discuss further options. Safety of myself, a rider or handler, and the welfare of the animal is of most importance. I will not participate in photoshoots of animals being abused to perform for photographs.

• The cost of this session is $199.00 plus HST

• 1 hour session on arrival of property

• One location (must be discussed if its indoor or outdoor prior to booking)

• Additional animals will be charged based on time spent ($50.00 an hour above package cost)

• Locations outside of Lambton Shores, Ontario will be charged .80 cents per KM

• Event rates for the day can be discussed at time of booking
