Why photograph on Petme

Paid when the owner accepts

Owners see the package first

Duration, edited photos, price, delivery deadline and revision rounds are on the page before anyone books, so a request already matches what you offer.

Common questions

Pet photography jobs in Birmingham

What photographers in Birmingham ask before they apply to shoot on Petme.

Is Petme hiring pet photographers in Birmingham?
Petme does not post vacancies. Approved Petme sitters who pass a separate photography review build their own menu of up to 3 packages, and owners book from it. In Birmingham you choose the areas you cover, from Edgbaston to Moseley, and you decide when you take shoots.
Are there pet portrait jobs in Birmingham?
Petme's pet photography packages are photo sessions: a set number of edited photos from a shoot of a set length, delivered in the app. If your portrait work is photographic, build a package around it and price it yourself. Owners see the contents before they book.
Do I need the council's permission for a pet shoot in a Birmingham park?
Ask first. Birmingham City Council says a professional photographer at a wedding in its parks must apply for permission and pay a charge, and film requests go to FILM Birmingham. Its pages say nothing specific about pet portraits, so check with the council before a paid shoot.
How do I become an animal photographer in Birmingham?
Become an approved, ID-verified Petme sitter first. Then send the photography application with a portfolio of animal photos, at least one proof of paid professional work and your declarations. If it is not approved, you can apply again after 15 days. Once accepted, you can start taking shoots in Birmingham.
Do I need paid experience to be a pet photographer in Birmingham?
Yes. The photography application asks for a portfolio of animal photos and at least one proof of paid professional work: a business registration, a client invoice, or a professional website or social profile. While you build that in Birmingham, you can offer other pet care once you are an approved sitter.
How much do pet photographers make in Birmingham?
Petme publishes no earnings figure, because you set your own package prices. For reference, a pet photography session costs about £50 to £250 across the UK, according to Airtasker UK (updated November 2023), and a one-hour shoot with a general photographer costs £79 to £139 on Snappr's 2026 UK price list, and prices in Birmingham can sit above or below that. Treat it as a guide, not a promise of earnings.
What does a pet photographer do on Petme in Birmingham?
You shoot pets at the owner's home within your radius, outdoors at a spot the owner names, or in your studio, whichever you offer. You deliver the edited photos in the app by your package's deadline, handle any revision rounds, and post your work on the Petme feed so owners around Harborne can find you.
