Because our pets deserve to be remembered, too

Our pets are more than companions — they’re family. Pet sessions capture the personality, joy, and connection you share with the animals who make life brighter.
Sessions are available across Colorado’s Western Slope, celebrating the bond between pets and the people who love them.

Photos of the ones who love you most — just as they are

Pets don't stay the same forever

Anyone who has loved a pet knows how quickly time passes.
The puppy who once fit in your arms grows up.

 The playful energy slowly softens with age.

 The everyday moments you share become memories.

It’s easy to think there will always be time for photos later.

But the truth is, the moments we treasure most often pass before we realize how meaningful they were.

Imagine always being able to remember their personality

The way they tilt their head when they hear their favorite word.
The excitement in their eyes when they see you.
The quiet comfort of simply being together.
Pet photography captures those little details that make your animal uniquely them.
Because one day, those photographs will become the memories you return to again and again.

Kind words

“These photos are truly a gift.”

“I’ve always been so self-conscious in photos, but this session changed that. Seeing these moments with my dogs—especially as they’re getting older—means everything to me. Claire captured their personality so perfectly, and I only wish we had done this sooner.”

- kelsie

"We will treasure these forever"

“Our dog is getting older, and these photos mean so much to us. Claire captured such beautiful, genuine moments that we’ll hold onto for years to come.”

- Robbie

"It's impossible to pick favorites"

“There are so many good ones. Claire did an amazing job capturing every little moment.”

- Tamas

A photographer who truly understands animals

Pets are family—and photographing them takes patience, understanding, and a little creativity.

With over 20 years of pet-sitting experience, I’m comfortable working with dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pup is shy, playful, or a little chaotic, I’ll meet them where they are and capture them in a way that feels natural.

(Many of these pups are part of our Rover family)

My fiancé often joins me during sessions, and together we create a relaxed environment where pets can be themselves—so we can document the moments that make them so special.

And yes—we’re always happy to bribe with treats if it helps get the perfect photo.
