Christmas Dog Portraits in Niagara

Deck the Dogs is back with Christmas dog portraits in Niagara. Two brand new sets: a cosy green forest, the other is all fairy lights and golden touches.

The Setting: A Century-Old Barn in Jordan, Niagara

Deck the Dogs sessions take place inside a century-old stone and wood barn at Sue-Ann Staff Estate Winery in Jordan. Right in the heart of Niagara wine country. Every November I transform the space into a holiday set worthy of your dog’s best festive look (and yours, if you’d like to join in).

Puppies, seniors, busy dogs and would-be Christmas carolers are all welcome. The new sets have officially left the workshop (my elves and I are very proud), so here is a first look, followed by a few favourites from past years.

More dates and times added: November 14-15, 21-22, and 28-29, 2026

What if my dog is nervous or reactive?

That is exactly why the session is only thirty minutes. Short, low pressure, and we work at their pace. I have successfully photographed anxious dogs, reactive dogs, and dogs who are so “over” having their photo taken. We figure out what works for your dog and go from there. Some of my favourite images have come from the “challenging” sessions.
