Older Dogs Model Call

This model call is for older dogs only for a very special project that will start October 2025 and end in August 2026. Models will receive one 30 minute to 1 hour professional photo session and one photo edit by Michelle Dawkins at the location of her choosing, or models home if located on Kent Island, Maryland if it's best for the dogs. Options to view and purchase additional photos and exclusive wall art from these model call sessions are available.

NOTICE: If you are a pet/dog photographer signing up, your application will be placed at the bottom of my list. While I appreciate other pet/dog photographers wanting a session with me, I will be reviewing applications for those who do not have access/own a professional camera first. Applications will be reviewed bi-weekly and if you are selected we will reach out via email as stated below on the application with the dates and times available. If you can not make one of the dates and times sent via email, your application will be moved to the bottom of the pile until the next round of application reviews go through. If you would like a specific date and time, please sign up for my limited winter photo session VIP Wait List to have the chance to book a session when dates are released.

Applications are going through after you hit the submit button. The text is just very small and I am unable to fix it. Please do not call, text, message, or email asking if it went through. I am getting an overwhelming amount of the above and I do not have the time to respond.

Dogs must be 10 years of age or older (Small to Medium dog breeds). Or 8 years old for larger breeds.

Dogs must be friendly towards photographer.
