The Seasons at Terraces Farm Experience
A Limited Edition Series
A bespoke dog photography experience at a private flower farm in Milford, Michigan.
The bond you share with your pet is a story worth telling.
My Seasons at Terraces Flower Farm experience is designed to capture this chapter of your story in a truly unforgettable setting, creating timeless art for your family.
I am so excited to offer a very limited number of sessions at the stunning Terraces Flower Farm on Saturday September 27th for Sunset and Sunday September 28th for sunrise
The Limited Edition Session $200
This Limited Edition Session includes everything you need for a beautiful portrait:
A 20-Minute Session: Your session will take place at the stunning Terraces Flower Farm, giving us a beautiful, exclusive backdrop.
One Digital Portrait: You will receive your favorite image from the session as a high-resolution digital file, perfect for sharing and printing (a $275 value).
A Private Viewing Gallery of 5+ beautifully edited images from which to choose your included portrait. You will also have the opportunity to purchase additional digitals & artwork, such as wall art and albums, directly from your gallery.
The Signature Session at the Farm $350
This experience is for the client who knows they want to create beautiful, tangible artwork for their home. It is designed to be the first step in your journey to creating a cherished family heirloom.
This experience is for you if:
You know you want to invest in a stunning piece of wall art or a heirloom-quality album.
Your goal is to have a wider variety of images to choose from for your final artwork.
Your $350 session fee includes:
A 30-minute session at Terraces Flower Farm for one dog (a second dog from the same household may be added for an additional $50).
A $325 Artwork Credit to apply towards the wall art, album, or digital collection of your choice.
A private viewing gallery of 15+ images.
Your Artistry Credit: The First Step to A Lasting Memory
When you choose the Signature Session at the Farm Experience, you will receive $325 artwork credit to ensure the beautiful portraits we create don't just live on a hard drive, but become a tangible part of your home and your story. I know how deeply you cherish the bond with your pet, and my goal is to transform that connection into exquisite, heirloom-quality art that will stand the test of time.
Think of this credit as the foundation for your collection. It’s the first step toward filling that space on your wall or shelf with a piece of art that truly means something. During your custom gallery reveal walkthrough, I will guide you through the beautiful options available, ensuring the entire process is effortless and enjoyable for you.
Here are a few ways you can use your credit…
The Tabletop Signature Art Piece
Your $325 credit completely covers the investment for a lovely tabletop Signature Art Piece.
This piece is perfect for a size like a 5x7, 8x8, or 8x10, ideal for display on a console table, a bookshelf, or your office desk. It’s a wonderful, intimate way to keep a beautiful portrait of your beloved companion close, offering a daily reminder of their chapter in your story.
These timeless art pieces are handcrafted using the finest archival-grade materials and can be created as a framed fine art print, canvas, acrylic, or metal piece to perfectly match your home's aesthetic.
The Foundation for a Statement Piece
For many clients, the primary goal is to create a signature piece of art that becomes the heart of a room. Your $325 credit can serve as a significant first step toward a larger, more impactful piece for your wall or a comprehensive album.
For Your Walls: You could apply your credit toward a larger Signature Framed Art piece to fill a blank wall. For instance, a "Grand" (24x36) sized piece is regularly $850, but with your credit, the remaining investment is only $525.
For Your Story: The credit can be applied to one of my Signature Fine-Art Albums. These albums are professionally crafted with thick, lay-flat pages that preserve your memories for generations. For example, an 8x8 album with 15 of your favorite images is regularly $875; your credit brings the investment to $550.
Don’t forget, you get all the corresponding digital images when you purchase a physical product!
For the Ultimate Heirloom: Your credit can also be used toward one of my popular curated collections, like my Keepsake or Heirloom Collections, which bundle albums and wall art for a complete storytelling experience at the best value.
Looking for a More Bespoke Experience?
If you have a shy or anxious pet who needs more time, or if you envision a longer, more immersive session with your entire human family (up to 5 people) and multiple dogs (up to 3 from the same household), I would be delighted to create a custom proposal for you.
My full Bespoke Sessions are booked on separate dates and are completely tailored to your family's unique story and needs. Please reach out via my main contact form to begin planning.

“I can't say enough about our incredible pet photography session at the Terraces Flower Garden… The Milford location was breathtaking, filled with vibrant blooms that made the perfect backdrop… What really stood out was the care and intention behind the entire experience. This wasn’t just a photo shoot—it was a memory in the making…
We laughed at trying to capture Bree's positioning, explored the garden, and had such a joyful time that I’ll cherish even without the photos... and yet, the photos themselves? Absolutely stunning. Every image tells a story, and I was happy seeing how beautifully Bree was captured.
If you're looking for more than just pictures—if you want an experience that celebrates the love you have for your pet—this is it. I will treasure these memories forever.”
Are You Ready to Celebrate This Chapter in Your Story?
While our phones are full of snapshots, we rarely pause to create something truly lasting. The West Oak Pet Photography experience is a relaxed, outdoor adventure designed to do just that—to capture the authentic spirit of your pet and the depth of your connection.
My favorite moment is when I guide you through the possibilities for your new portraits. It's when you see how those joyful, candid moments can be transformed into beautiful wall art and gorgeous albums that you will cherish forever.
This is the art that will grace your walls and fill your albums, growing more precious with every passing year…
Don't let this chapter of your story go by without celebrating it. Reserve your experience today, and let's create something beautiful together.
A Few More Details…
Q: What if my dog won’t sit still or is difficult on a leash?
A: This is the most common worry! My sessions are designed to be fun and flexible, so a perfect 'sit-stay' isn't necessary. However, to protect the farm's delicate flowers, it is important that your dog can be managed calmly on a leash. For dogs that are very strong pullers or need extra space and patience, the Bespoke Experience would be a much more comfortable and successful option.
Q: Are leashes required at the farm?
A: Yes. The safety of your pet is my top priority, and Terraces Flower Farm requires that all dogs remain on a leash at all times. Please don't worry about this affecting your final portraits, as leashes can be seamlessly removed from any artwork you choose to purchase.
Q: Can I be in the photos too?
A: The Limited Edition session is designed to focus on creating beautiful portraits of just one dog. If you'd like to include yourself, your human family (up to 5 people), and/or multiple dogs (up to 3), the Signature at the Farm Session or a Bespoke Experience would be the perfect choice for you!
Q: What if the weather is bad on our session day?
A: Your experience is my priority. If heavy rain or storms are in the forecast for our session date, we will connect the day before to reschedule. Your session fee will simply transfer to a new date.
Q: What exactly is included in each package?
A:
The $200 Limited Edition Session includes your 20-minute session for one dog and your choice of one high-resolution digital portrait.
The $350 Signature at the Farm Session includes your 30-minute session for one dog (a second dog from the same household may be added for an additional $50) and a $325 Artwork Credit to invest in the art of your choice.
The Bespoke Experience is a fully custom session, and we will create a proposal tailored to your unique needs.
You will receive a private viewing gallery after your session with the opportunity to purchase additional artwork and digital files if you wish.

“Sarah was wonderful to work with and she truly captured the personality of my dog Ellie. She was patient working with my senior dog and came up with great ways to get her photos. The artwork surpassed any of my expectations and I just love all the photos.”
Meet your Photographer
Hey there, I’m Sarah!
If you're looking for someone who understands the 'always covered in dog hair' life, you've found her. I'm Sarah, and I'm a photographer who's completely obsessed with animals. Seriously, I'm their mom, and I'd do anything for them. And honestly, meeting your dogs? It's one of my favorite things!
I've always loved photography, but it's capturing the connection between pets and their people that truly fills me with joy. I want to create art that shows the real moments, the silly grins, the quiet cuddles, the pure love that fills your home. And yes, my clothes will probably have dog hair on them when we meet – it's just part of the job (and the joy!).
West Oak Photography is my way of celebrating my own furry family – Westley, Oakley, Meeko, and Remy. They're my world, and they've taught me so much about the beauty of unconditional love. And let's be real, a huge thanks to Ben, who not only puts up with my 'just one more' pet tendencies (valiant effort, honey!), but also wholeheartedly encouraged me to chase this crazy dream of opening a photography business. I couldn't have done it without him!
You're my kind of person if:
You consider dog hair a fashion accessory.
Your pets are your children, and you'd move mountains for them.
You genuinely light up when you meet a new dog.
I'm here to capture those genuine, heartfelt moments that show just how much your pets mean to you. Let's create something that truly reflects your unique bond.
