Dog Days Benefit Session

Your furry best friend is invited to the studio!
1 day only, march 15th, and a portion of every session will go to the Montclair Animal Shelter.

Dog Days are limited-edition studio portrait sessions designed to celebrate your four-legged family members in a clean, timeless, elevated setting.

📅 Offered one day only: March 15

As part of this special event, a portion of every Dog Days session fee is donated to Montclair Animal Shelter, helping support local animals while celebrating the ones already part of your family.


Why We Created Dog Days

Dog Days were created to give families a rare opportunity to include their dogs in a studio session on MARCH 15TH ONLY.

Because we photograph newborns and young children year-round, dogs aren’t typically allowed in the studio. Dog Days give us a special opportunity to prepare the space and welcome pups for studio-style portraits.

As part of this special event, a portion of every Dog Days session fee is donated to Montclair Animal Shelter — helping support local animals while celebrating the ones already part of your family.

If having your dog in studio photos has been on your wish list, this is the moment.
