• I have a Gift Voucher, what does that entitle me to?

Your gift voucher entitles you to a photography session with Hannah Paterson Photography and a 7x5 mounted print of your favourite image..

• Do I get all the digitals?

No. There are no digital files included with any session. However they can be purchased separately.

• Do I need to bring anything with me to my pets session?

Your pet and a sense of humour are all that are required.

But if there's something specific you want in your photos such as a favourite toy, you are most welcome to bring that along.!

And although my pockets are always bursting with sausages and other delicious things, if your dog has any special dietary requirements/allergies it's probably best that you bring their own special treats to reward them for being so good.

• Can I have a photo with my pet?

Absolutely! The photos I have of me with my dogs over the years are some of my most treasured.

I will actively encourage you to have your photo taken with your pet!

• My dog can't be let of its lead, is that ok?

Absolutely! It might surprise you to know that around half of the dogs I photograph are on the lead for their entire session. Whether this is due to poor recall, a newly homed rescue, nervousness in a new place, old age, sight problems etc etc. With some photoshop wizardry in post production, I promise you would never know!

• My dog won't sit still, can he still have a photo session?

If I had a pound for every time I heard this..........well, you know the rest!

Wriggly, squiggly, busy dogs are no problem!

I have an armoury of tricks up my sleeve to help dogs be still for just a moment, and if they all fail (they haven't so far!) you can be sure we'll get some amazing action shots!

• Where are the photos taken?

Most people come to me and we head out to the woods or the beach for an adventure.

There are lots of fantastic locations in the Montrose area that I use regularly for sessions.

However if there's somewhere specific that you have in mind that you'd like to go, just let me know.

Mileage charges may apply if it's outside a 25 mile radius of Montrose.

• When will my photographs be ready?

Your images will be ready to view and purchase withing 2 weeks of your session date.

If I know it will be longer than this, which can happen during busy times, like the run up to Christmas, I will advise you of this at your session.

• How long do photo sessions last?

Shoots normally last between 1 - 2 hours depending on your pet.

• What if the weather is bad?

The only weather we can't shoot in is rain or high winds which make a session unsafe for animals and humans.

If the weather is bad on the day of your session, we will simply reschedule to another suitable day.

• I have more than one dog, is that ok?

Of course, the more the merrier.

As long as all dogs at the session are from the same household. Don't try and sneak in your neighbours, best friends, mums dog and pretend it's yours!
