When we are set up a cat show.....we charge by each subject...and how many photos we take during the course of the session. The fee is US$30.00 per session plus US$2.00 for each photo that I think is good...up to a maximum of 12 photos....with a maximum fee of USA$56.00.  If I take only five shots I think have merit...the fee would be US$40.00....if I have thirteen photos I like....or more...the fee is still only US$56.00.

In addition to the prints above, you will receive contact prints of all the photos taken during the session...this might be as few as 12 or less if your cat proves uncooperative....or as many as 25 shots.   We will email to you all the shots taken as 600x400 pixel jpeg files suitable for using on your personal cattery web sites, and emailing to other breeders or prospective kitten buyers.

O bviously with moving subjects...and cats to boot....not every shot will be a "keeper". Usually we expect a return of at least 50% when we shoot.....or I may not take photos at all...and under those circumstances we don't charge at all. I have a saying the harder I work the less I make...as often the hardest subjects may involve the most time...and the fewest actual photos taken...  

We don't normally reserve times for sessions...as the owners are often running between rings, and  cannot predict accurately when they will be available....nor can we say how long any particular cat will take. Usually if you get a ring call...we write down your cat's number...and you come back later as time allows to finish the session. We find that often repeat visits to the studio at the show will make the animals more relaxed anyway...and often results in better images...
