I build extra time into my sessions for treat breaks, belly rubs, and play, ensuring we get those real, happy interactions rather than just stiff, formal shots. When you include your pet in a photo shoot, you are not just adding a subject to the frame; you are adding a personality. Whether it is a quiet, intimate home session or a lively outdoor shoot at a Mumbai park or beach, my goal is to keep them comfortable. ### Why a Pet-Friendly Shoot Works I have learned that the best photos happen when the animal feels relaxed. I don't force them into uncomfortable positions or use loud, aggressive tactics to get their attention. Instead, I use a 'directed candid' approach. We let them sniff around, play with their favorite toy, or just hang out with you. This is why I suggest 'In-Home' sessions for pets who might get overwhelmed by new environments. The familiar smells and furniture make them feel safe, which leads to genuine, calm portraits. ### Planning for Your Furry Friend If you are planning an outdoor session, we usually stick to early mornings or late afternoons. This avoids the heat of the day, which is crucial for their comfort. I also recommend bringing along their favorite treats, a water bowl, and a familiar toy. If your pet is a bit shy or high-energy, don't worry. I have experience working with all temperaments. We simply work around their mood, not against it. My priority is documenting your connection. If your dog wants to sit on your lap during your engagement shoot or your cat wants to supervise your maternity session, that is exactly what we will capture. These are the small, messy, beautiful moments that you will want to look back on. ## About Anupa Shah I’m Anupa, and I’m a huge believer that the party doesn’t start until your pets are involved. I have worked with plenty of pups and cats, and I genuinely love the energy they bring to a session. If they’re part of your family, they’re part of my shoot.
