03 · From phone to wall

Thousands of photos. Not one you'd frame.

Your phone is full of them. Blurry tails, half a nose, the back of their head. A portrait is different: their best light, their truest expression, printed to last.

Room previews

Picture them at home.

Studio portraits, previewed as framed and matted prints.

04 · How it works

A luxury experience, for them and for you.

The Consultation

We plan the whole feel of the shoot together: colors, themes, wardrobe and any ideas you have. This is a luxury experience for them and for you.

The Photoshoot

A fully guided, relaxed session. No perfect behavior required. We play, we go at their pace, and we let them be themselves. I create portraits of them, and of the two of you together, that you will cherish for a lifetime.

The Reveal

In person, at my studio. Not a link in your inbox. We look through every portrait together, and you choose your fine art matted portrait and any heirloom pieces you'd like to add.

06 · Meet Troy

Hi, I'm Troy.

I've been an artist my whole life, and the camera became the way I tell the stories that matter most.

With pets, the story is the bond: the look they give only you, the way they lean in when you need them. My job is to make the session easy and fun for them, and unforgettable for you.
