Our dogs are more than just a dog.

They’re our partners; adventure buddies, loyal companions; our soul mates.

They give more than they ask for; they fill our lives with unconditional love; they deserve to be honored and celebrated through art that captures their authentic spirit.

We wanted someone to capture our pups and the joy they bring to our lives. Kristen is extremely easy to work with, organized, detailed, and has a true passion for what she does. She treated our dogs and us like family and made the experience something we will always remember.

— How we do it —

1: Plan the deTails

Together we’ll plan out your perfect day and how you’ll enjoy these portraits.

Want to hike to a waterfall - check. SUP with your pup down the river - alright. Hunt pheasant in Kansas - let’s go! Play at a park - I got you.

2: Run wild & free

The goal: live in the moment and celebrate that wild love you only share with your pup.

Filled with lots of praise, love, and treats, the photo shoot is just a big outdoor adventure with a new friend.

3: Enjoy every day

After our session, we’ll choose your favorite portraits and finalize how you’d like to display them around your home or office.

Pretty soon you’ll be enjoying your beautiful ready-to-display lasting artwork of your sweet furry friend.

I know how much she means to you.

See this gorgeous, silly little pit bull? This is Kona - my soul dog, my absolute world.

Her journey ended on December 1, 2022, when she left the biggest hole in my heart and the most enormous shoes to fill.

Your dog receives the same amount of care, love, and attention as she did every day she was with me.
