Cones and Canines - Saturday, June 21st

A fundraising event for Ruff Life Dog Rescue of Illowa

Treat your pup to the ultimate summer experience with Cones & Canines — a dog-friendly ice cream photo event where your furry bestie gets to enjoy a delicious cone while we capture every adorable lick, squish, and tail-wagging moment.

Whether they're a polite licker or a full-face-in-the-cone kind of pup, this is their time to shine (and drool). Each session is filled with frozen fun, cute props, and portraits that are as sweet as your pup's personality.


Our Cones & Canines sessions are more than just adorable — they’re impactful.

  • Each session helps support Ruff Life Dog Rescue of Illowa.
  • Sessions are10 minutes of fun and include 1 digital image.
  • Additional digital files are available for more sweet shots.

Make your pup a star and support Quad City area dogs.

Q: What happens during the photo session

When you arrive, I will show you the best way to hold the small ice cream cone under your dog. 

You will see your hand in the images. 

When we are ready, you will hold the ice cream cone under your dog and while they enjoy their treat, I will capture 3 - 5 images. 

Q: What if I have more than one pet? 

Each pet will receive an ice cream cone treat. Please bring someone to help hold your pets who are not being photographed. 

It will make your session run smoothly and will keep everyone safe. 

Q: When do I see my images? 

A couple of days after your session, you will receive a private gallery for you to view. At that time, you can choose your favorite images and make your purchases. 

Q: My dog doesn’t sit still—can we still do this?

Absolutely! These sessions are designed for real dogs, not show dogs. Whether your pup is curious, wiggly, or just full of energy, we work at their pace. We’ll capture the magic in the in-between moments. Lisa has a variety of simple techniques that she uses to gain your pet's attention and keep them in place. 

Q: Will there be other dogs around?

Nope! Your session is completely private—just you, your dog(s), and me. No distractions, no stress.

Q: Do I need to bring anything?

Just your pup.

Q: What if my dog is shy or nervous?

That’s totally okay! I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities and always allow time for your dog to get comfortable. The goal is a relaxed, pressure-free experience.
