Story Dog Photography

18/03/2025

Are you showing your dog in Springfield on April 5 & 6th? What better way to celebrate a new champion, or new addition to your dog family, with a gorgeous dog headshot to display in your home? Or maybe your dog has changed so much, you need a new headshot for a stunning ad.

Take advantage of the first weekend of April to get a good deal on headshots. Sitting fee is $20, and view and purchase the photos right there, or simply choose to purchase photos later on a gallery expiring within a week. Most clients will get a high-res digital negative for $49, perfect for multiple uses (ads, your own prints, photo gifts, etc).

Register now at https://storydogphotography.com/register OR do this at the show, to be added to the waitlist. Then, come when you are able with your dog & $20 (cash or card)... no need to set an appointment (because, as you know, show days can get crazy!)

Questions? email [email protected] or call or text 860-245-1738.

This is most likely the only time Story Dog will be in Springfield, until perhaps the fall!

Dog as art. SOOoOo funny 😆 looooove my first ever rat terrier, Woody. Found a new spot on the wall to hang this precious gallery wrap of his signature look…it will be in the new dog’s room lol. Although these pics are hard to see it’s a nice rustic white wood frame. $$$$ a fortune but worth it…he will forever be remembered….have the art now or never…. Showed this pic to Woody again and he approves 👍😂

Second pic, he of course had to make sure there’s nothing behind it 😂

My first ever rattie and heart dog 🐕

Doing an ad this spring? Get ahead of the game by getting your dog’s professional studio-style headshot this weekend! THIS weekend!

Dog (& human) headshots at the shows in Springfield. You got that right…if you need a basic headshot for yourself (website? Profile photo? Dating app?) I am open to photographing you too. Signup you or your dog at the show.

After all, I’ve had 10+ years of doing human-portraiture…here’s a dog lover’s chance for a basic headshot. I do offer on-location personal branding sessions geared towards websites & social media, for solopreneurs, small business owners, and of course, dogs. View my commercial work at lingmesser.com

In addition to photographing dogs this weekend, I’m available on site at the booth for a free kennel/breeder website consultation. Do you have a kennel website that you’re embarrassed about? schedule a time to meet with me to navigate through your website mess! Having many years of website & marketing experience, I’m happy to help.

I will have 2 breeder websites available to view (!) as well as some brainstorming sheets to help you with planning your website layout and flow, if you choose to DIY your design or you normally have someone else to do it.

Any questions please text Ling at 860-245-1738
