A Relaxed, Pet-Led Experience From Start to Finish

San Diego Pet Photographer

Inspired by my own trio, Harvey, Murphy, and Lemon, I opened my first studio and built a space where pets could feel comfortable, understood, and free to be themselves. In 2025, I brought that vision to San Diego, creating a calm, private studio designed for stress-free, joyful sessions for pets of all ages and personalities.

Today, my work is grounded in intention, patience, and the belief that every pet deserves to be celebrated through meaningful, lasting artwork. I’m honored to capture your pet’s story and the love that fills your home.

The Experience

My goal is simple: to honor the joy pets bring into our lives through portraits that feel genuine, artful, and meant to last for generations. I can’t wait to create something beautiful for you and your pet.

My Philosophy

San Diego Pet Portraits

What’s included in the Studio Session Fee?

The $200 Studio Session Fee includes up to 60 minutes of private studio time, a timeless white backdrop, creative direction, and access to a calm, pet-friendly studio environment. You’ll also receive a private online proofing gallery where you can view and purchase artwork after your session.

Are digital images or prints included in the session fee?

Digital images, prints, and products are not included with the session fee. All artwork is purchased after your session once you’ve viewed your proofing gallery, allowing you to select only the pieces you truly love.

How many pets or people can participate?

Sessions include up to two dogs from the same household. Additional dogs are $50 each, with a maximum of four dogs per session. Up to four people may join as well; because studio space is limited, please email hello@elevenpawsphotography.com
 if your group is larger.

What kind of artwork can I order after my session?

Once your portraits are ready, you can choose from fine art prints, framed wall art, albums, keepsakes, and handcrafted products. Every artwork purchase includes a complimentary matching social-sharing digital file.

How much do clients typically invest in artwork?

Most clients invest between $400 and $1,800 on custom artwork for their home. There is never any pressure to purchase more than what feels meaningful to you.
