Foxy! Pet Photos

So I booked Mindy for a photo session for my baby that just turned one. She was very professional and was very easy to work with. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs pictures of their love ones. She was able to capture some amazing pictures that could never be recreated. So thankful that I was able to find her for our session.

This review is long overdue, so here goes…
Mindy is infinitively awesome! I didn’t tell many folks I got a shiba puppy because I wanted to make a grand introduction on social media (it’s not official until it’s posted on facebook). So I arranged a photo session with Mindy right before the holidays. Of course, if you know how hard it is to take care of a puppy, just imagine how hard it is to get your puppy to sit still for a photo. Anyways, I was worried we were not going to get good pictures because my dog wasn’t really trained and he’s a stubborn little Shiba. Nope, not the case with Mindy. She had all these techniques and methods to get him into the positions we wanted.
She has a really keen eye for capturing moments and turning them into treasures. I would highly recommend her to my friends in a heartbeat! Ick, now my dog is going to be entering his adolescent years (er doggie years) soon but it will be less painful knowing that I can call Mindy to take pictures of my wild teenager! Oh dear lord please help me!

If you are like me, you consider your pet to be part of the family. They get a christmas stocking just like the rest of us, are included in our engagement photos, and are the ones always there to greet you with excitement when you walk through he door. When we look back on our memories, we have a small selection of photographs that we want to remember forever. We find out favorites and cherish them as some of our prized possessions. If you are looking for a photographer to create those memories for that part of your family, then look no further. Mindy not only captured those moments for our dog, but was able to do so before her unfortunate passing. I am beyond thankful I took the opportunity to capture my dog Laya through the that lens.
Cant thank her enough.
Thank you!

indy was so great when she took photos of my Frenchie, Sneakers. She was very flexible, patient, and willing to meet in our neck of the woods — that was so nice of her to do that. We agreed to meet in Downtown Huntington Beach where we could take photos in various areas. I wasn’t sure how the photos were going to come out, but when she sent them to me, i thought they were so great — they captured his essence, energy, and personality so well. I’d suggest checking her out if you’re ever interested in getting photos of your pet taken.

Mindy shares a great love for animals and when she told us that she took pet photos, we completely jumped at the idea having pictures taken of our sweet pup! Bruno, our maltipoo, does not get along with most strangers, but as soon as he met Mindy, he was calm, cool, and well mannered. She’s definitely the animal whisperer in our book. She was very patient with Bruno and really captured his true free spirit.
I LOVE how the pictures turned out and am now teetering with the idea of putting his picture in some media. Hey, maybe he can be the next BOO? We really appreciate the professionalism, the patience, and the fast response in getting his pictures to us. If anyone is looking to take pictures of your sweet pet, I highly recommend Mindy! Shes very sweet, professional, and not scared to get down and dirty to get a great shot!
Thanks so Much Mindy! ~ Bruno

My sister got married in Southern California last year (hurray, huzzah, the most exciting thing ever to happen in my family!) and my wedding gift to the happy couple was to coordinate and pay for photography of their special day. I heard about Mindy through word-​of-​mouth and I liked the animal pictures she had on her website. I contacted her to ask if she photographed humans, and to my delight she was available for people pictures as well.
Mindy was very responsive during the pre-​wedding process. There was a reasonable deposit, and she sent us three different surveys so that the brides could notate what kind of pictures they wanted. The surveys covered everything from which people or wedding events should be featured to the «tone» of the wedding pictures. I think my sister picked something really intangible like «magical» which made me roll my eyes and simultaneously worry that the pictures could never match her expectations. This was especially scary since I live in Oakland, CA and had to communicate with Mindy via telephone and email.
After what seemed like a millions stress-​filled years (I’d only ever be maid of honor for anyone other than my dear sister, I swear to god) it was the wedding day! Mindy showed up at the wedding site bright and early. She met my sister in the salon and had a relaxing chat about her desires and expectations for the wedding look, while also taking pictures of the hair and makeup process. She took pictures of everyone getting ready in the hotel room, of everyone setting up at the ceremony site, the wedding, and the reception. She even took pictures of the reception site before anyone got there, which no one thought to ask for. It’s a good idea– helps you remember how beautiful the tables looked before the guests messed them up. Throughout the nerve-​racking day she was calm, warm and friendly– we all appreciated that very much. She backed off if there were frazzled nerves but snapped away if possible. We all enjoyed Mindy’s presence at the wedding and were very happy with her professional yet cordial mien.
Then…we received the photos. OH MY GOD THEY WERE SO GOOD!!! Mindy exactly captured the «magical» tone my sister was looking for with her woodland ceremony. She used a variety of light settings and other photography stuff (I don’t know, I’m not a photographer) to give us beautiful, ethereal and candid photos of the special day. I loved the photos so much I started crying when I saw them. She really captured the emotions of the day, and did so beautifully. I’m so happy to know that this special day in our family’s history will be preserved in photos thanks to Mindy’s talent and dedication.
I can’t recommend Mindy and Foxy Pet Photos enough. She was an integral part of our family’s special day, and I look forward to setting up a photography session for my dog the next time I’m in the Los Angeles area. Even my father, who has a «healthy sense of value» (read: he’s a cheapskate) loved the photos so much he wants to hire Mindy to take a family portrait next year.
Go with Mindy for your photographic needs. You won’t regret it!

Mindy is working with my company, Oh To Be A Dog to create a calendar for charity. She has taken pictures of many of my clients dogs and needless to say they are gorgeous and the clients are THRILLED! She has also taken photos of both my cat and my dog, and they are just amazing.
She has a way of capturing images that bring the pet to life. She is very talented and I would highly suggest using her for your pet photographs.
