Pet portraits for Houston families and the animals they love
Pets are part of the family, and they belong in your portraits, too. Whether it’s your children with their favorite sidekick, the whole family with your dogs, or a portrait just for your pet, we’ll create photographs that feel like you.
As the lead photographer for Houston PetTalk Magazine, I regularly photograph pets and the people who love them. I bring that same patience, relaxed approach, and sense of humor to your session. Your pet doesn’t need perfect manners—we’ll allow time for treats, breaks, and a little unpredictability.

what to expect
01 Plan with Purpose
We’ll begin with a discovery call to learn about your pets, their personalities, and who will be joining them in the photographs. During your planning consultation, we’ll discuss wardrobe, location, and how you’d like to enjoy your portraits at home.
02 Enjoy Your Session
Expect a relaxed session with plenty of patience, treats, and time for breaks. I’ll guide you through posing and work with your pet’s personality, whether we’re photographing them on their own, with your children, or with the whole family. Perfect manners aren’t required!
03 Love Your Portraits
Together, we’ll select your favorite photographs and decide how you’d like to enjoy them. From custom wall art to albums and portrait boxes, I’ll help you choose pieces that fit your home and celebrate your pets’ place in your family.
