Why Do I Need a Pet Photographer?

The simple answer is that your pets are family. Your pets are spoiled in every way possible. They get special treats. They get special toys. They get special attention. Your pets often get spoiled as much or even more than your human children do. Just like your human children, don’t they deserve to get their portraits done and included in the family displays on your walls?

“What can a pet photographer do that I can’t do with my phone?” This is a question many pet parents ask. “Why do I need a professional when my phone can do just as well?” There are many reasons to hire a professional pet photographer. Here are just a few:

  • A pet photographer knows how to work with you and your pet to capture their personality in ways you could not capture on your own.

  • A pet photographer can capture moments and memories that include you showing your special relationship with your pet.

  • A professional pet photographer has experience working with animals that other professional portrait and family photographers may not have.

  • A pet portrait is not just another photo. It is a piece of art and a memory that lasts a lifetime.

  • You love your pet, but they grow and change so quickly. A professional pet photographer can capture the moments and the growth from the time they become part of your family to the sad days before they depart. In years to come you will be grateful for the memories so beautifully captured and preserved.

This is Samantha. This was once one of my favorite portraits of my beautiful girl. I took this photo with a point and shoot camera before I understood anything about photography. At that time I would never have dreamed I would someday be a professional pet photographer!

This is also Samantha. I took this photo ten years after the first photo. The difference is quite noticeable! As a professional pet photographer, I now have an eye for composition that I did not have before. I understand the use of lighting, backgrounds, and editing. I also have a much greater knowledge of how to work with the animals and their pet parents to get the shots we are looking for.
