★★★★★ (5 stars)
5 stars is not enough. An absolute must for every pet owner - regardless of your pet's age, size, shape, breed. Annette is not only an incredible pet photographer, capturing beautiful images, but she has a wonderful way with dogs and cats alike. Tailoring their photo shoot to each individual, Annette captures them at their best. Annette and Nicole are a formidable team, and together they create the magic. The personal touches are super special eg the choice of treats, the choice of backdrop colours, even the choice of packages available. Their preparation is brilliant and the pre photography questionnaire set the tone as to how fun the experience was going to be. Both Annette and Nicole relax even the most anxious pet owners - I'm not sure who has more fun! Annette Nel Photography is truly one of a kind, and an opportunity that should not be missed by any pet owner or pet lover. Thank you to them both. I will treasure these moments you captured so beautifully ❤️
Your Photography Experience: This is how it works
1. Session Consultation: Every pet is different. Before your session, we'll learn about your pet's personality so we can create photographs that feel natural and uniquely yours. Then, we'll confirm the session details, including the location, time, and your preferred artwork.
2. The Session: It's time to play! This is strictly a stress free time, and your furry four-legs will lead the way. We will take a range of beautiful images of your pet that will provide years of fond memories. A typical session lasts approximately 1 - 2 hours and we will take as many breaks as your pet needs.
3. Choosing Your Images: Within 1-2 weeks of your photography session, I'll provide a curated shortlist of unedited images in an online gallery. During this time, you can choose how to display them—whether as wall art, albums, or in digital format. Your selected files will then be edited into artwork that you'll cherish forever. Rest assured, any unwanted elements will be removed, so you won’t remember they were there.
I don't even know where to start describing how amazing my experiences have been with Annette & Nicole.
I've been here three times, two times for my own pets and one time to support a dog from a local rescue organization.
The ladies take their time during the shoot, especially when I came with my two cats, there was no rush and there was time for both my fur babies to feel comfortable.
The happiness of the pets come first which makes the overall experience amazing. It's the small finishing touches like the welcome sign at the door that truly stand out.
The pictures itself always come out amazingly and really captures the characters of each pet.
Would really recommend if you'd like a few amazing pictures of your pets. I had mine recently printed and framed and are now proudly hanging in my bedroom.
