Begin Your Portrait Experience

Two signature pet portrait experiences, each crafted with the same care and intention. Choose what feels right for you, and we'll begin with a personal conversation about your beloved companion.

Legacy Portrait Experience by Kwaak Photography

Timeless, artistic portraits that preserve this connection

Legacy Portrait Experience

$1,500CAD

Not everything in life is meant to be kept. But some things are.

This session is created for those who understand that the bond you share with your dog is not ordinary ‒ and deserves to be honoured with intention.

Time moves quietly. Expressions change. What feels familiar today will one day become something you long to hold onto.

I create timeless, artistic portraits that preserve this connection as it is now ‒ with depth, care, and a considered eye for what truly matters.

This is not about taking photos. It is about creating something lasting.

An artwork that remains.

The Experience Includes

  • A guided portrait session, thoughtfully designed around your dog
  • A 20x30” acrylic print
  • A small collection of refined digital images for personal use
  • Two fine art prints

Best For

This session is for those who don’t want something quick or disposable ‒ but something they will return to, for years to come.

Single Heirloom Portrait by Kwaak Photography

A single, lasting portrait of your dog

Single Heirloom Portrait

$1,250CAD

Some moments don’t need to be grand to be meaningful.

They simply need to be seen and held onto with care.

This session is a quieter, more focused approach to creating a single, lasting portrait of your dog ‒ one that reflects their presence, their character, and the connection you share.

There is beauty in simplicity. In choosing one moment, one expression, and giving it the attention it deserves.

I create timeless, artistic portraits that honour what is already there ‒ without excess, without distraction.

A single piece. Carefully made. Meant to remain.

The Experience Includes

  • A guided portrait session, thoughtfully designed around your dog
  • One finished, archival-quality artwork
  • A small selection of refined digital images for personal use

Best For

For those who value simplicity, intention, and the quiet power of a single image.

How it works

The Experience

1

A Thoughtful Beginning

We start with a simple conversation. You share about your dog, your connection, and what draws you to have this captured. From there, I guide you in shaping a session that feels calm, natural, and true to them.

2

The Portrait Session

The session itself is unhurried and gently guided. There is no pressure for your dog to perform or behave a certain way. I work with patience and attention, allowing genuine expressions and moments to emerge.

3

Your Private Viewing

After your session, you’ll be invited to a private viewing of your portraits. This is where everything comes together. You’ll see your dog in a way that is often deeply moving ‒ and from there, we carefully select the images and artwork that feel most meaningful to you and your home.

4

Artwork, Made to Remain

Your chosen portraits are then refined and produced with care, using archival materials designed to last. What you receive is not just a photograph, but a piece you will live with ‒ and return to ‒ for years to come.

Investment

This Isn’t Just a Portrait… It’s Something You Live With

This is not about booking a session. It is about choosing how you want to remember this chapter.

Every experience I offer is designed with intention — from the way we photograph, to the way your images are brought into the physical world.

Some clients are drawn to a single, striking piece — one image that holds everything. Others want to preserve a fuller story, something they can return to, page by page, year after year.

There is no right choice. Only what feels true to you.

Most clients invest between $800 and $1,500 for their portrait experience and finished artwork. If you’re unsure which option is right for you, you’re always welcome to reach out — I’ll guide you through it.

Kind words

What Clients Are Saying

We absolutely adore Kwaak Photography and recommend them to all! We love our dog more than anything. Now that he’s getting older, having honest, beautiful memories of every stage of his life with us feels more important than ever. Jody captured him in such a natural, effortless way, with so much warmth and sincerity. You can actually feel the love in every photo.

Shimoi Kalra

Such an incredible experience working with Jody and Greg for our dog’s portraits! This was our first time doing anything like this and they both worked around Huey’s comfortability and captured some amazing shots! Highly recommend for anyone looking to capture these special moments with your furbaby!

Jacq K.

My dog Belle and I participated in a photo shoot at Scottsdale Farms with Jody and Greg and it was a FANTASTIC experience. Though it was cold and windy, Jody managed to get some exceptional photos of Belle and of Belle and I together. I wholeheartedly recommend Jody to anyone who wants to capture memories with their perfect pets.
