Photoshoot on location in Johannesburg with dogs and cats

When it comes to pets, the more the merrier! This family shoot was filled with fun, especially when it came to getting everyone into one photo. The only creature missing from this shot is Peach the cat who hid until he could have solo portraits taken.

Everyone else could be easily bribed with treats. Even if they free-styled throughout.

Thor the Boerboel brought the entertainment with some well timed photobombs.

And some spectacular epxressions.

One of the pugs fell asleep when it was her turn to join in the family photographs.

Then livened up once the treats came out again.

As can be expected when it comes to getting cats to follow instructions, it was like herding……

So we let them dictate the terms of engagement and that seemed to suit them far better.


The dogs were more compliant as long as they were guaranteed some snacks.


If you live in a multi pet household, commissioning an at home shoot is by far the easiest way to have your animals photographed. It’s also far less stressful for cats and nervous dogs. Please get in touch with me here to find out more about pricing, packages and availability.
