VALENTINE THEMED
February 8 & 9, 2025
Sacramento Photo Studio
I’m so excited to be doing the first themed pet Photo Box event at my Sacramento studio! I hope you will join us. For props/accessories: I’ll be making a large X and O for the back wall of the box (they will be interchangeable) but the box can also be blank so subjects and props/accessories really pop. I’m also planning on making some bandanas, bow-ties and smaller garlands (hearts, XOs) for the nano (which only comes with one box).

The inspiration for Photo Box Sessions was the year 2020 when I was scrolling Pinterest, trying to come up with an idea for my own holiday card! It was the year that kept us confined to a box (our homes) and yet required us to think outside the box (for survival and sanity!)... Even stuck in a box we can tell a full and fun story! I'm not offering short themed sittings on event days as well as full, private sessions to customize and tell your own story.

The box is an actual box (that I built). It's dog size (36"x36") but a person can squeeze in, too... It's a blank slate! For each event theme I will have some props and accessories at the studio available to use... You are also welcome to bring your own.
Most dogs have no issue getting in the box (especially when treats are involved)... But if you think your dog may not want to get in, let's arrange a time before the event day for you to come by the studio and let them check it out. The more comfortable they are on event day, the more we can use the short timeframe to get fun photos! Please contact the photographer if you want to arrange a time to swing by the studio.
What if my dog won't get in the box?
A.So far most dogs, coaxed by yummy treats, have eventually gotten in the box. But you are welcome to make an appointment to come by the studio before the day of the event to get them comfortable with the box (so we can use our time on even day to get photos).
If we don't have any luck getting them in the box, we'll chat about options. Which include reshooting on another day or transferring your deposit to another type of session.
I can't make it to the event day, are there other options?
A.Yes, if you can't make these dates, the Photo Box Session is available as a private session (Tuesday, Thursday and one Saturday a month). Contact the photographer.
How many pets can be included?
A.More than one pet can be included.
My dog is not very trained and I don't think he will sit still...
A.The majority of people have this concern but I can assure you that it's not all about the perfect sit. Part of the fun is figuring out what works for each unique personality.
Is there a theme?
A.The event days will be themed and have props and accessories to use but you are welcome to bring your own.
