Portraits and prints of your dog or cat you'll actually hang.
Relaxed pet photography in Chicago — at your place or out around the neighborhood.
"AMAZING photos of our “children” (AKA our dogs and cats) that we’re able to cherish and keep forever. On top of that, the pets were never uncomfortable and Adrian came to us for the photoshoot. Couldn’t have asked for a smoother process from start to finish!"
"Adrian is a total dream to work with. He arrived on time and worked with our animals seamlessly. We got our photos promptly and are so happy to have something a lot nicer than the ones we've taken with our own phones. He is great with both outgoing and shy animals. I cannot recommend Adrian enough."
"Often when working with photographers, I've worried about their ability to not just capture a moment, but the raw emotions in them. Maybe that's asking a lot — but not for Adrian. He exceeded expectations for every photo my wife and I received of our wedding at the courthouse. What otherwise could've looked shoddy and impromptu was captured beautifully. It was truly a blessing to have had our wonderful and memorable moment captured by him! With weather and time working against us, he was able to work with what we had and made it into something we'll always cherish!"
Your session in 3 easy steps
Inquire
Fill out the short form below. I'll write back within a day and we'll sort out a date, a place, and what you're hoping for. A 50% deposit locks in the date.
We shoot
Your living room, your porch, the park down the street — wherever your pet is comfortable. I prefer natural light, so whatever your windows or the sky are doing that day is usually the best look. 30 to 90 minutes — the first bit is just letting them get used to me. I bring treats and patience, and we go at their pace.
You get prints
In about two weeks you get a private online gallery of your finished photos, sized for your phone and for printing, plus the prints I make for you. Want more? Order them from the gallery or print the files anywhere. They're yours.
