Buy local! I have put together a short list of some great holiday gift ideas for dog lovers and dog owners in Cincinnati (and beyond). Each of the ideas is a Cincinnati small business owned or run by a woman who I admire. Let’s support local, small business entrepreneurs to give gifts your dog owner friends and family will love!
Pet Love Photography
Book a pet portrait session for your best friend and you with Pet Love Photography, where your pets are our focus. They work hand-in-hand with clients and their pets to bring out their unique personalities as well as the beauty of the location. Through the end of the year, book a custom “Best Friend” pet portrait session for only $300 and get a bonus $150 print credit or book a “Mini Bite” session for only $95 (pre-set dates to be determined later). Gift certificates are available for all session types or for a specific dollar amount.
The woman who owns (and is the photographer for) Pet Love Photography is Susannah Maynard, who also publishes CincyPet Magazine. Susannah is not only a very gifted photographer who instinctively knows how to bring out the best expressions in your pet, she also has a heart of gold. Please support her by reaching out to her to book your pet photo session. You will be glad you did!
