Feel free to bring any props you would like in your picture, but, again, please remember that time is limited so have them ready before it is your turn! For the safety of your pet and other participants, pets are not permitted.
May I bring my service Animal to the event?
Service animals are welcome. Our policy, consistent with the ADA's revised guidelines, defines "service animal" as limited to a dog that is individually trained to do work or perform tasks for an individual with a disability. The task(s) performed by the dog must be directly related to the individual's disability. Service animals must be harnessed, leashed or tethered, unless these devices interfere with the service animal's work or the individual's disability prevents him or her from using these devices. Individuals who cannot use such devices must maintain control of the animal through voice, signal, or other effective methods.
How and when will I receive my pictures?
Images for each participant/group will be sent to the email provided during registration within (5) business days of the event. The photos will be high-resolution digital files (jpeg) that you may share or get printed wherever you choose.
What kind of photo poses can we do?
You can do all sorts of poses with Brutus while you are there. We recommend one nice traditional pose first, and then try to mix it up. Maybe a silly face or the kids standing up while Brutus sits down. Brutus loves to be creative and if it’s appropriate and in good taste the sky is the limit. Please note that Brutus is unable to hold or take pictures with any external signs or with anything that would promote a business, product, service, or cause.
