Give yourself the peace of mind knowing you'll have authentic and natural portraits of your pet that will last your lifetime!
This is our big secret - Your pet is a perfect model!
⭐If your dog can be a dog, we can create amazing artwork of them for you⭐
We hear "my dog won't sit and stay," all the time and that's fine! We work with dogs & cats of all skill level and abilities.
Capturing your pet's personality includes their jovial spirits, mischievous grins, and charming winks. Let them run! Let them play! They are behaving exactly how they should be for us to capture authentic joy.
Your favorite artwork will come from the times your pet is relaxed and having a good time.
We make it easy to go from "thinking about a portrait session" to having the most beautiful artwork of your pet throughout your home.
1. Pre-Session Consultation
A Pre-Session consultation will help us choose the best location for your session and ensure your outfits will compliment your goals. We'll also give you all the tips and tricks for making your session run as smoothly as possible.
2. Portrait Session
Get ready to have some fun! We thrive on positive energy and will reward your pup for everything they do during their session! We will offer posing guidance for people and pets while capturing those sweet candid moments in between!
3. Portrait Reveal Celebration
You'll see your edited portraits together with us over Zoom! At this time you'll choose your favorites and choose how you want to enjoy those for a lifetime. We offer wall art in 3 mediums, heirloom albums, traditional prints and digital files.
4. Enjoy Your Artwork for Life
Your artwork will be delivered to you within 4-12 weeks of your portrait reveal celebration. If you need help hanging your artwork we can send a team of installation professionals to your home to take care of this for you!
We want to hear all about your pet!
Once you tell us all about your pets and session goals we will draw on our experience and knowledge and create the perfect session setting for your family.
We offers portrait sessions in nature utilizing San Diego's parks, at the beach, in your home and for special cases, in studio. Together we'll choose a spot based on the goals of your session and your pet's personality.
We will accommodate your goals and exceed your expectations.
The best part is you don't need to worry about your dog or cat being well behaved or sitting and staying. We never expect them to do so and we get our best shots when they are relaxed and showing their personality!
A portrait session is the gift your pet would give if they could choose any gift for you!
It's all about relaxing, having fun, and capturing the moment!

- Any ideas you may have and how we can make them a reality.
- Our ideas and professional recommendations to make your session a complete success.
