A calm personal approach to portraits of pets, families, and individuals in the mid Maryland area.

Pets and people are photographed together in ways that feel natural and comfortable- whether in my studio, your home, outdoors, or another meaningful location.
What People Are Saying
I had found out about Stephanie's pet photography business through Facebook & contacted her about taking pictures of my dog. The whole experience was great from beginning to end. She was willing to meet me and my dog at a local park where she had scouted out a few locations that worked wonderfully for our session. I am so happy with how the pictures turned out & ordered some prints from her too. I would absolutely use Stephanie again for pictures of my current dog but also dogs that we have in the future.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about pet and family portrait photography
My dog can’t be off leash. My dog won’t sit or stay. Can you still take pictures of him?
Absolutely! Safety is important to us. We use a variety of techniques to make sure you get great images and that your dog has a good time and then remove the leash and even the collar if you would like when editing..
My pet is camera shy. Is there any way you can get pictures?
Certainly! We know ways to get your pet used to camera sounds or we can use the camera in silent mode and away from our face as needed to make sure your pet is comfortable.
I want pictures of our whole family with our pets. Can you do that?
We love taking pictures of families with their pets. We will love working with your to create portraits you will cherish.
I don’t know how to pose. Can I still get good pictures?
