Puppy photography Melbourne before they grow up
The tiny paws, the milk teeth, the ears that haven't decided which way to point: puppyhood is over in a blink. At our cozy Deanside home studio we photograph puppies at their own wriggly pace, so you keep the version of them you'll miss the most.
The puppy phase doesn't wait
Puppies change week to week. The session that captures those enormous paws and that first proper head-tilt can only happen in a narrow window, and then it's gone. A relaxed studio session, built around naps and zoomies rather than fighting them, is the kindest way to hold onto it.
Explore first
Your puppy gets to sniff around and settle in. No other animals, no busy waiting room, just a calm space to get comfortable.
Short, playful bursts
We shoot in little bursts with breaks for treats, cuddles and the inevitable nap-attack. The wriggly moments often make the best photos.
Keep the memory
Edited, high-resolution images arrive in a private online gallery within 10-14 business days: puppyhood, preserved.
Not sure when to book? Our guide on the best age to photograph your puppy breaks down each stage. And for practical prep (grooming, treats, timing) see preparing your dog for a photoshoot.

"5 Stars from Millie! Our experience with Paw Prints Melbourne was absolutely pawsome and so professional from start to finish! Josh and Steph were amazing from the get-go, they made me feel super welcomed and calm throughout the entire photoshoot. The photos aren't just pictures, they're beautiful memories to treasure forever!"
Millie's family"Couldn't recommend more highly, was such a fun afternoon doing the shoot and even cooler getting the photos sent through after! The guys did such a good job getting our extremely ADHD GSP to stay still long enough to get some awesome and unique shots!"
