How To Take Wedding Photos With Your Dog | Tips for Including Your Pet In Pictures!

1. Make sure wedding venue is ok with it
May seem obvious, but not all venues are dog friendly. Make sure you let them know you have a plan for how to clean up after your dog and that you will have a designated dog supervisor. Ask if there are certain places your dog can or cannot go. Maybe puppy can show up for just photos or just getting ready time!
2. Bring treats or favorite toy
We're not above bribing on your wedding day. Treats or a favorite toy are especially useful when trying to get your pup to walk down the aisle or sit for photos

3. Consider who will take care of your fur baby while you're not taking photos 
Have a good friend or family member who can be there to make sure your dog has what they need like food, water, & potty breaks. 
4. Bring a lint roller 
Let's make sure your wedding outfits, especially dark colored suits, are looking as fresh and hair free as possible!

5. Don't be afraid to move or get on their level and play and have fun!
It's super hard to get your dog to look right at the camera when there are new faces and new smells and oh so much excitement! So let's walk with them, play fetch, show off some trick with treats, and don't be afraid of kisses! I like doing photos with you dog after all our pics so it's ok if you can't resist a big wet kiss from your puppy!
6. Make sure your puppy is ok with it too
Weddings can be overwhelming for humans, but if your dog is also anxious, a big celebration with lots of noises and newness might be too much! Make sure your wedding environment is a good fit for your four legged friend!

7. Have them dress the part
  • Bandana that says "dog of honor" or something cute
  • Bow tie 
  • Tux shirt (if they'll tolerate it)
  • Tutu skirt (if they'll tolerate it)
  • Flower crown collar 
  • Flower leash
  • Harness in matching colors

8. If your dog can't make it, include them in another creative way!
  • Picture of your dog on cups
  • Pictures of puppy as fun masks for the photo booth
  • FaceTime in your furry friend for a cute picture
  • Pictures framed from our engagement session with puppy
  • Pictures of your dog in the guest book
  • Donate to an animal charity in your dog's honor as your guest gift
  • Put them on top of your cake!

Well, I have to say that the couple looks good together. But the photos became extra amazing when they had their dog included on their shoots! I am sure that the dog has a special place on couples' lives because you can already tell him much they love the dog. Though it is may be stressful compared to a usual photoshoot because there is an animal involve, the result would be cuter! Well, me and my partner is very close to our dogs and we even consider them as our babies!
