HELLO!

Welcome to Sit Stay Studio! I am Ashleigh, an internationally award-winning pet photographer. I am a Master Photographer (PPA) and one of only a handful of Certified Professional Photographers in BC.

Capturing and preserving memories of your pets that will be treasured over generations is my passion. I work hard to ensure your experience from our first meeting to your final reveal session is exceptional.

STEP 1

Your pre-session consultation is the first step to booking your session. This helps us to ensure we are both working towards creating products that will best honour and respect the memories of your furbabies. We can discuss the ways you will be displaying your images in your home so when we have our session we know which types of shots and locations will work best for your space. We will choose the best date and time for the location we decide on and book your session. After our consultation, you will receive an email with tips and tricks to help you prepare your pets and yourself for your upcoming session.

STEP 2

Sit Stay Studio sessions are relaxed, fun, and as unique as each pet I photograph. Do NOT worry if you think your dog isn’t “well mannered.” The pets shown on my website most likely all behaved exactly the way your pet will on their session day. What you’re seeing is a split second photograph captured very quickly before we moved on. The comfort of your pet is more important than perfect manners. They feel energy very easily so if we relax about the occasional “faux paw,” your pets can too.

STEP 3

Approximately 2 weeks after your session, we will hold your reveal session. These sessions may be done at our home studio, video conference, or I can come to your home. This is one of the most exciting parts of your photography session with Sit Stay Studio! We will review your images together and ensure we find the best way to display them in your home, gift them to others, and preserve the memories of your precious furbaby for a lifetime, so they won’t be lost forever on a USB or a failed hard drive one day.

STEP 4

DELIVERY! I will deliver your prints and products as soon as they return from my lab and I have checked them all to ensure they are ready for you to display proudly in your home! This is my favourite part of the process because I am able to provide you with a service many photographers no longer offer. I have the honour of seeing the joy on your face when you see how our images and ideas have resulted in a display that is perfectly curated to match your pet, home, taste, and lifestyle
