This summer I had the absolute joy of photographing a corgi who brought every ounce of sunshine and charm to Evergreen Brickworks. Tucked right in the heart of Toronto, this spot is one of my favourite places for pet sessions — especially in the summer when it’s alive with color, texture, and endless wagging opportunities for your pup.
Our little corgi friend thrived here, and honestly, it reminded me once again why Evergreen Brickworks is such a perfect location for summer pet sessions. Beyond the cuteness overload (because, let’s be real, corgis steal the show everywhere they go), this location gives both dogs and their humans a session experience that feels fun, safe, and completely one-of-a-kind.
Here are my top 5 reasons why Evergreen Brickworks is an unbeatable summer spot for your pet session:
1. Safe Exploration + Freedom for Your Pup
One of the best parts of Evergreen Brickworks is how safe and open it feels. There’s plenty of space for pups to roam, explore, and sniff to their heart’s content without the stress of heavy traffic or overwhelming crowds. It gives your dog the freedom to relax and just be themselves — which makes for the most natural photos.
2. Full, Lush Summer Backdrops 🌿
In summer, the greenery here absolutely flourishes. Tall trees, winding trails, and overgrown stone walls create a mix of natural textures that frame your dog beautifully. Every photo feels like a little escape into nature, even though you’re only minutes away from the downtown core.
3. Variety, Every Time You Visit
Evergreen Brickworks is one of those places that never looks the same twice. Whether it’s the wildflowers blooming, the changing light filtering through the trees, or the graffiti walls that add pops of urban flair, your session has endless options for backdrops. This means even if you’ve been here before, your photos will always feel fresh and unique.
4. A Blend of Urban & Natural
Few places in Toronto combine city character with lush greenery as seamlessly as Evergreen Brickworks. You’ll find industrial details — brick walls, rustic staircases, and open courtyards — sitting right next to trails, ponds, and wild growth. It’s like two locations in one, giving you tons of storytelling variety for your session.
5. Comfort for Both Dogs & Humans
Summer sessions can sometimes feel tricky with the heat, but Evergreen Brickworks offers shaded paths and cooler tucked-away corners. This helps keep your pup comfortable, so we get more happy moments instead of overheated ones. Plus, you as the pet parent get to enjoy a relaxed and scenic stroll while your dog shines in front of the camera.
This corgi’s summer session at Evergreen Brickworks was the perfect reminder of how a beautiful location can elevate your experience and give your pet the freedom to just be. The result? Photos full of personality, joy, and a little bit of corgi sass.
If you’ve been thinking about booking a summer session with your pup, Evergreen Brickworks is the place where wagging tails meet timeless backdrops.
