My favorite question to answer is “Can I bring my dog to our photo session?” The answer is always a resounding YES!

Including a beloved animal in engagement photos adds a unique and personal touch to the session, making the photos even more meaningful. For this particular session, the couple brought along their brand new puppy! It is true for me and I know it is true for a lot of us, animlas are our family! Often they also become a big part of a couples love story also and having them join in on a few photos is a wonderful way to honor that bond. I always encourage couples to consider including their pets in their photos, as it brings out a natural, candid energy that makes the images feel even more special and authentic. While it might call for a bit more planning and wrangling to include a pet in your session, Im in if youre in! Whether it’s a dog, cat, or any other pet, these moments make for timeless memories that couples can cherish for years to come.
