I am Cat Schramm The Pet Photographer.
Hey there, new friend! Woof, I gotta tell you, my love for animals runs deeeeep. That’s why I specialize in pet photography – capturing those furry little guys brings me all the joy in the world! Although, I have to admit, dogs hold a special place in my heart (sorry, kitties, don’t give me those judgmental looks!). Being a pet photographer is like getting paid to play with puppies all day, can you believe that? So get ready for some serious fun during our session – I’m about to unleash my enthusiasm and we’re gonna capture some pawsome memories together!
Hey hey, want to know something hilarious? My last name seems to be causing some trouble out there! It’s okay, I still love you all. Instead of saying “scram”, which sounds like an old man chasing kids off his lawn, try saying “scrum” instead! You know, like in rugby. Pretend you’re part of the scrum, and let’s nail this pronunciation once and for all!
From Start To Finish
WHAT TO EXPECT
1. GETTING STARTED
Once we have decided on the perfect date for your photo session, I will send you the pre-session questionnaire. It will help me to get to know your pets a little bit better and to understand what you are looking for in your experience. You will also need to sign the contract and pay the booking fee, which will secure your chosen date on the calendar.
2. CHECKING IN
Before our session, I’ll slide into your DMs to confirm all the deets. Anything on your mind, any questions? Don’t be shy, I’m here to help you feel confident and ready for our epic shoot. If Mother Nature isn’t on our side that day, no sweat! We’ll chat options for rescheduling. Trust me, we’ll find a way to make it happen rain or shine!
3. DAY OF SESSION
Woof woof! It’s time to get ready for some hilariously precious moments with your furry friends. Yay! We’ll meet at the location and I’ll guide you on how to help me make the best photoshoot ever. After that, make sure you have some cozy cuddle time with your pets. It’s going to be so much fun that you’ll all end up taking an afternoon nap. So, get ready to laugh out loud and create fantastic memories with your fur babies!
4. AFTER YOUR SESSION
After our awesome session, make sure to follow me on Facebook – @catschrammpho to catch a sneak peek of our epic shoot in a few days. Trust me, it’ll make the wait for the rest of your images like a piece of cake! We’ll then put together a selection gallery for you to cherry-pick your faves which I’ll then polish up and finalize for your digital delivery in just 2 to 3 weeks. Can’t wait for you to see the purr-fect end results!
5. CHOOSING YOUR IMAGES
It’s time to pick out some awesome images for your final package. Show some love by marking your favorites with a heart! After that, get ready for some real magic – just share the album with me! And if you can’t get enough, don’t worry! There are plenty of additional images available at a fair price. Let’s get creative and have some fun!
6. ENJOYING YOUR PRODUCTS
Congrats! Your finished album is on its way to you in just 2-3 weeks. Get ready for some serious memory lane time!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are you itching to book a session with me? Well, you can actually book up to a whole year ahead of time – that’s how in demand I am! But, if you’re like most of my amazing clients, you’ll want to book a few weeks to a few months in advance. Spring and fall are the hot seasons for sessions, and I don’t want you to miss out! Let’s get you scheduled ASAP before all the dates get snatched up. And don’t worry if you’re a last-minute kind of person, I keep some spots open just for you…and the weather, of course! So, are you ready to rock this photoshoot? Let’s do it!
Woohoo! Did you know that some of the most paw-some dog portraits you see are taken with leashes on? Yep, safety always comes first, but don’t you worry, I’ve got some serious editing skills that will make it look like your furry friend was never even wearing a leash! So, sit back, relax, and let’s create some ruff-tastic portraits that will make your pooch proud!
Yay, let’s play! We’ll run around, sit together, stay still, and just have a blast! Your furry friend will have a hilarious time and that’s what makes for some paw-some photos. I’ll take a bit of time at the start to get to know you and your pup, and then we’ll jump right into the shoot. Trust me, we’ll capture some totally pawesome shots while trying out all sorts of silly poses. It’s going to be a total blast! Our shoots are so much fun, lasting around 1-2 hours, depending on how much fun your pet wants to have!
Woohoo for asking such an awesome question! 😜 If your furry pal is a little ball of energy, why not take them for a good ol’ walk before the photo shoot so they can get all their wiggles out? Don’t forget to make them look fabulous and make sure to get rid of those pesky eye boogers. And if you wanna jump in on the paw-ty, make sure to pamper yourself too! I suggest wearing any solid color, just not black, white, or red – let’s make sure you stand out! I’ll send you a session guide with all the deets on how to get prepped for the perfect photo shoot.
So many choices! I like to make sure your session is tailored to you, based on your location, the time of year, and your preference for landscapes. Want to schedule right away? No problem, I’ll give you the coolest options for the best results. But if you have a bit of time to plan ahead, we can take advantage of all the beauty that Pretoria has to offer, from blossoming spring flowers to the stunning colors of fall. If you’ve got a specific vision in mind, let me know and I’ll make it happen. But if you’re stumped, I’ve got a whole bunch of suggestions up my sleeve that I know you’ll love. Let’s get started!
Every animal is as unique as a snowflake, so we can’t expect them to behave flawlessly all the time! But that’s why I’m here, to help you with any of those “purrsonality quirks” you might have noticed. Don’t worry, I’ve dealt with it all – from puppies who think they’re bigger than they really are, to older dogs who refuse to play ball (quite literally!) After booking, we’ll have a little chat and prepare a questionnaire to learn more about your furry friend’s quirks and doodahs. You know, all those little things that make them who they are! Maybe they’re a little sensitive to loud noises or they love belly rubs more than anything – we want to know it all! Cause with that info, we’ll be able to have a purrfectly tailored photoshoot, bringing out all the things that make them special.
We’re ready to capture the cuteness overload! If you have more than two pets in one household, you’re in luck! For a small fee of R100 per additional pet, we can make sure that all your furry friends are stars in their own right, so make sure to bring them all! Our photoshoot can last up to 2 hours, but with extra paws running around, it might be longer. To make the shoot go smoothly, grab your partner or a friend to help us wrangle these adorable troublemakers. Let’s get started on creating some paw-some memories!
Are you ready to make it rain with some electronic funds transfer? Don’t worry, we won’t ask you to bring out all of your moolah upfront. We just need a R500 booking fee to get the party started! We can also shake things up and make a custom payment plan, just for you – and yes, it’s totally free! As soon as we’ve collected all of the dolla, dolla bills, your fabulous order will be on its way! So, let’s do this and make your party dreams come true! 😉
Oh my goodness, your furbaby is going to look so stinkin’ cute! As soon as we’re done with the photoshoot, I’ll work my magic on the pics and your pet will be a bona fide social media star! Get ready to show off the cuteness overload to all your friends. I’ll have the final images ready in about two weeks, but who needs patience when you’ve got a pet this adorable, am I right? Let the countdown to cuteness begin!
Oh my woof! I am totally obsessed with pets and capturing their paw-dorable personalities through photography. Don’t worry, I won’t bite… unless you don’t give your pets enough love and scratches, then I might have to get a little ferocious! Let’s make sure your fur babies are wagging their tails and posing for the camera with all the furry-tude they’ve got. Let’s do this!
We Can't Wait to hear from you!
