Tips for you successful portrait session:
	Please take time to walk your pet beforehand.
	Don't be concerned that your pet won't sit still, the professional equipment will stop action.
	Patience is very important. Stay calm, as your mood will be conveyed to your pet.
	Grooming is good, but if it puts your pet in a frightened or bad mood, consider doing it several days ahead. Our lights make your pet shine so that same-day grooming is not necessary.
	You may bring treats, toys, small props, flowers or anything you would like in the photo to make it special.
