Our podcast is centred around connecting you, the human, to the support and services you may need as your pet ages and ultimately leaves your physical world.
At the heart of those services is professional pet photography. All of the individuals who bring you this content are professional pet photographers.
Some have niched down into what is known as end of life pet photography but none of us really like that term, since it's so clinical and cold. We prefer Rainbow Sessions or Legacy Sessions or Memory Sessions.
As a professional dog photographer, my niche is adventure, celebrating humans and dogs doing dog things in the great outdoors.
Today, I'm chatting with Kylee Doyle of Kylee Doyle Photography in Sacramento, who has found her niche in reactive dogs. Kylee serves pet parents in Northern California, from Sacramento to Tahoe, helping them turn their pets into photographic artwork they can proudly display in their homes for generations to come.
Reactive dogs often have an intense fear or aggression toward humans or other dogs, which can make it difficult for them to be in public spaces. That certainly presents its own set of challenges.
Kylee has a reactive dog, Omega, a Dutch shepherd who has heightened sensitivities and can be an emotional handful.
In trying to find resources to help Omega, Kylee realized other pet parents with reactive dogs may need someone to work with in a way that makes them feel safe and comfortable. Many may even shy away from having a portrait session done because they don’t know how their dog will handle it.
But they have a beauty, personality and spirit that should be documented and celebrated, too, in photos that don't scream "reactive dog!" or "aggressive dog!"
They are loving, individual beings who should be a part of your family photos and home décor.
But enough of me going on about it. Let's let Kylee tell us about photographing reactive dogs.
