Your Truffle Experience is tailored to you and your dog from start to finish.
Before we talk about sessions or artwork, it's worth understanding how it all begins.
Every Session Starts With a Plan
Great photographs don't happen by accident.
Before we ever pick up a camera, we talk.
Every session begins with a dedicated planning appointment, guided by a short questionnaire designed to clarify what really matters: your dog’s personality and needs, the style of images you’re drawn to, and how you’d like to enjoy them at home.
Many clients tell me this step alone helped them feel confident, prepared, and excited for their session.
What we'll cover in the planning appointment
Your dog — their temperament, quirks, and what helps them feel relaxed and at ease
The overall look — whether a studio setting or outdoors will suit them best, along with style, tone, and feel
The session itself — timing, location, and what to expect on the day so everything runs smoothly
Artwork — how you might like to enjoy your images at home, including size, format, and display options

"My beautiful dog, Harlo, was quite elderly and showing signs of deteriorating. I wanted to capture some last nice memories of him, but he hates cameras and would pull awful faces and poses if I tried to photograph him. Veronica came in and was so understanding of the situation and wasn’t fazed at all. She achieved wonders. Her photos captured not only Harlo’s looks but also his personality. In fact, in a couple of photos you could see him having a good laugh and really enjoying himself. To our surprise she also took the opportunity to get a family photo with both of us and Harlo. This is now one of the most precious works of art on our wall. I love walking past and being able to remember not only our precious pet but also the fun time we had. Ronnie’s gentle style combined with her photography skills makes the results excellent and the process fun. I would encourage anyone to give it a go. You won’t regret having a photo session with Ronnie." - Nita
"The entire experience was wonderful"
Ronnie from Truffle Photo created some beautiful images that perfectly captured the spark and utter cuteness of our Golden Retriever puppy. The entire experience was wonderful, and Ronnie was incredibly patient and playful while skillfully capturing shots in between our puppy's bursts of energy and short attention span..." - Terry & Tina

As sweet as can be, three month old Minnie shone for the camera in her studio photo session.
What a Dog Photo Session Feels Like
Before we starting shooting, your dog will have time to look around, take in the space, and settle in their own way. It's absolutely fine if dogs are not trained - outdoor sessions are photographed with your dog safely on lead, and the lead will be edited out of final images.
Different dogs respond in different ways to the session - some are shy and cling to their owners, while others see the excitement in it all and bring their full exuberance into play. Some take a little time to relax, others are comfortable almost immediately. No matter how a dog behaves, I work patiently and calmly, giving dogs time to be themselves.
I always have a plan for the session, but use that only as a guide. More importantly, I'm responding to what your dog needs, and what he/she is doing. This approach allows the session to feel calm and unforced, while working towards the kind of images we've planned.
You can read more about my experience with all kinds of animals here.
A Few Things You Might Be Wondering
How do we decide where to photograph my dog?
That’s something we’ll work out together during your planning appointment. Some dogs suit the studio, others are better outdoors. I’ll guide you based on your dog and the kind of images you’re drawn to.
Can I be in the photos too?
Absolutely! It’s a rare opportunity to be included in beautiful photographs with your dog. And it doesn’t have to mean formal posing. Some clients choose to be in just one or two photos, or in compositions where the focus stays firmly on their pet.
What if my dog is nervous or not well trained?
That’s completely fine. Sessions are relaxed and shaped around your dog, with time to settle in and take breaks as needed. There’s no expectation for them to behave in a particular way.
When do I choose my images and artwork?
You’ll see your photographs after the session at a private viewing appointment, where I’ll help you choose what works best for your home.
What if I'm not sure what I want yet?
You don’t need to have it all figured out. That’s exactly what the planning stage is for — we’ll talk it through and shape something that perfect for you and your dog.
Still have questions?
You’ll find more details on the FAQs page, or you’re always welcome to get in touch.
We had a photoshoot with Ronnie and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. She took some beautiful photos of myself, my partner, our 4 month old daughter and our border collie Hazel that we will treasure for a lifetime. Ronnie was great to work with and is a talented photographer. - Sophie
It was clear that Veronica was an expert at pet photography. From the start, my little Hugo felt comfortable and like he could play around. This got some beautiful photos. In addition, I really felt a part of the process, choosing backdrops, props, poses, etc. I have already recommended her to multiple family and friends!

My little man had only been out of pet gaol for two days so was very unsure of everything including me. Ronnie was very patient and understanding of the little fellow's needs and we have some fantastic memories from his first photo shoot. Thanks Ronnie for your professionalism and talent. Very happy. - Wendy
Veronica is a fantastic pet photographer who doesn't settle for ordinary. She was so patient with our two dogs that didn't behave and came up with other solutions when required. Would recommend her to anyone wanting up get some artistic shots of their best friends. - Victoria
