Wow, it’s been a mild winter in Vancouver, and even warmer weather is just around the corner. Spring is one of the best times to book a pet photography session. The earth is coming back to life, blossoms are emerging and colour is returning to our world. It’s a season of waking up and getting ready for the busy summer ahead.
Spring pet photography sessions are perfect not only because everything is beautiful, but because once summer arrives, weekends fill up fast.
Here are some really great locations in Vancouver and surrounding areas for pet photo sessions if you want to catch the Cherry Blossoms this spring.

Important things to remember.
Sunrise is the best time for pet photo sessions - Cherry blossom season is busy! To create the calmest environment for your pet visit locations early for the best experience.
Cherry blossoms are blooming late March - early April but can vary so keep in touch with your photographer.
Leash up - These parks are pet friendly but require leashes, respect the community and only have your pet off leash in designated areas.
Book your photo session now - Slots fill up fast, as this is a highly sought after time for sessions.
