2021 Holiday Deadlines

uch like last year, COVID-19 is anticipated to significantly slow production and delivery timelines this holiday season. We strongly encourage all patrons commissioning a Puptrait as a gift this holiday season to book their sessions well before Thanksgiving to allow ample time to compensate for these delays.

Can I bring multiple dogs to my studio session?

We strongly encourage pet portrait clients with multiple dogs to book a separate studio session for each of their dogs. We have found that even bonded dogs from the same household tend to distract each other and needlessly complicate shoots. That’s not to say that we aren’t happy to accommodate owners who bring multiple dogs to their session, especially those traveling to the studio from further away. But even with that said, the vast majority of our clients from Washington […]

Will you donate to our nonprofit dog rescue or advocacy?

Maybe. We actively support a number of local dog related nonprofits, including Bella’s Bully Buddies, the Baltimore Bully Crew and BARCS. We regularly donate free appointment slots to help adoptable and foster dogs find forever homes. Being a local and independent pet photography studio, there is of course a limit to how much we can give – even in how much of our time we can donate. But as a general rule of thumb, we usually try to help where […]

Is K9RT.com affiliated with the Puptrait Studio?

K9rt.com is web store and online gallery owned by the Puptrait Studio. The website currently sells Puptrait Studio gift cards. However, we have plans to soon expand the website’s offerings to include other items, specifically fine art prints. Puptrait.com will remain where we host our studio’s dog photo portfolio and continue to book photographic pet portrait commissions. We will also be maintaining our existing print on demand line of licensed merch on RedBubble, as this shop takes us zero effort to maintain […]

Can you cast dog models for commercial shoots?

We are not an animal talent agency. But if your commercial photography concept requires the recruitment of canine talent, chances are we can find the right dog to bring your vision to life. As one of the premier dog portrait photographers in the Baltimore / Washington D.C. region, we maintain a fairly sizable network of cooperative dogs in a variety of breeds, colors, markings, ages and sizes. More popular and common dogs breeds we’ve casted for commercial pet photoshoots: Pugs […]

How can I help you shoot more probono dog portraits?

We try to dedicate at least 1 day a week for the probono shooting of foster and rescue dogs in hope of helping them find forever homes. We would love to shoot more rescue dogs and expand our reach to help more rescue groups and foster organizations. But being an independent photo studio can make it a struggle to make ends meet at times. Honestly, the number one thing holding us back from photographing more rescue animals are those pesky […]

What happens if I fail to meet my minimum print commitment?

Private pet portrait clients at the Puptrait Studio are free to purchase as many or as few prints as they want. It is exceptionally rare for one of our private dog portrait clients to not meet or exceed their minimum print order commitment (it has literally happened twice in 4 years). But if you fail to meet your minimum print commitment, it isn’t the end of the world. There are no penalties or surprise fees. If you don’t meet your […]
