SONYA WAS ABLE TO CAPTURE BERT THE PUG’S INNER SPIRIT AND WHIMSICAL PERSONALITY

What a wonderful experience we had with Sonya. The photo session was so much fun. Sonya was able to capture Bert the Pug’s inner spirit and whimsical personality. The photos were all so great that it was very hard to choose. And the final products came out amazing.

WHEN I SAW THE PHOTOS, I WAS OVERJOYED! 

I was so impressed with how quickly she was able to capture adorable poses. Sonya worked hard and fast to get Bogey’s portfolio ready, and when I saw the photos, I was overjoyed! I want to say that in addition to her great talent, Sonya is such a warm, caring person who has a wonderful way with dogs. I have worked with her several times as our dog has grown older, and would highly recommend her to anyone who is as obsessed with their dog as we are!

WITH A SENIOR DOG, IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO CREATE A MEMORY THAT I’D BE ABLE TO HAVE FOREVER…

I love my photos!! Sonya was amazing in capturing my dog’s personality and spirit. With a senior dog, it was important for me to create a memory that I’d be able to have forever and that is exactly what Sonya delivered. She took the time to understand the types of photos I wanted to take and what was really important to me. She was a pleasure to work with and every aspect of the experience was a good one – from the pre-shoot, shoot, post shoot. Worth every penny!

Photo of yellow Lab with white flower

Her images blew me away. They are stunning and lucky me, she had 1 appointment available before the holidays.

Sonya puts so much thought into the session even before she met us. She asked a lot of questions to prepare ahead of time. When we arrived for our session, she was so warm and kind and made me feel so comfortable and confident that we were exactly in the right place. As the session continued, she proved me right. The images of my beautiful boy are incredible. She captured his sweetness, his humor, laughter and happiness. It was exactly what I was looking for. Narrowing down the selection of her amazing photos seemed daunting, but Sonya made the process so easy. She helped me to see the images through an artist eye. To say I am thrilled with her work is quite an understatement! I highly recommend Sonya to anyone and everyone that wants to capture the most stunning images of their beloved fur baby! Just do it. You will never regret it! Most sincerely, Alice Steffens

WOW! What an amazing experience!

I wanted a dog photographer to take pictures of my English Bulldog, George, that could live on forever and I could not be happier with how the pictures came out and how enjoyable the experience was from start to finish! Sonya is a gem! She is so professional and kind. She was extremely responsive and let me know what to expect every step of the way. The pictures came out better than I could have ever imagined. When deciding which photos to print , what size and on what material, she had lots of examples so I could see all of my options very clearly. The quality is second to none. I recommend Good Doggy Photography to anyone who loves their dog as much as I do 🙂 You will not regret it!

THE RESULTS DEMONSTRATE THE HIGH QUALITY OF WORK PUT INTO THE OVERALL SHOOT AND EACH INDIVIDUAL PHOTO.

Good Doggy Photography is a wonderful place for capturing the perfect moments with your beloved dog. The current portfolio of work is incredibly impressive with some photos being recognized internationally by The Kennel Club! The photographer, Sonya, is especially attentive to detail and ensures that all desired photographs are achieved. She cares deeply about the dogs that she works with and pays special attention to their well-being. The entire process is well managed with clear communication and set expectations for all objectives and deliverables. All of the photos are absolutely amazing! Taking the photos was the most rewarding part during which we all had an absolute blast posing and coordinating with our dog.

BOTH TIMES HAVE BEEN PHENOMINAL.

Sonya has photographed both my Chow and beagle mix. And both times has been phenomenal. Both of mutts have behavioral issues and her patience with both my girls was remarkable, especially with Venus. She is always a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend..

I HAD AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE WITH SONYA.

She was everything I was looking for to take a professional photo of my stubborn Shiba Inu for her one year birthday. I told Sonya what I was looking for and she knew right away what to show me and let me pick out the background, items, and wearables for my dog (if I wanted one), size and frame style. Sonya was patient with my dog and let her take her time as she is nervous around new people. The photo came out perfectly and I’m in love with it !

Working with Sonya from initial session setup to art work pickup was a breeze.

After much searching for dog photographers in the Monmouth County area, I was so happy to find Sonya’s website and portfolio. Working with Sonya from initial session setup to art work pickup was a breeze. Our session was for our two dogs of different sizes and temperament and Sonya was patient and thoughtful throughout. Sonya has a keen attention to detail and her passion for dog photography was evident at all times. Thank you so much for a great experience!
