Pet Portrait Sessions
A Portrait experience Designed Around Your Pet.
Every portrait begins with a conversation and unfolds at your pet’s pace. From planning your session to designing artwork for your home, every step is calm, personal and thoughtfully guided.
How the Pet Portrait Process Works
-
To inquire about a portrait session, simply complete the contact form to arrange your complimentary consultation.
-
This is where we bring your vision into focus. During your complimentary consultation we’ll get to know your pet, explore the artwork you’d love to create, discuss locations, timing and styling, and shape a portrait experience that’s uniquely yours.
-
This is where everything comes together. Every session unfolds at your pet’s pace, allowing them time to settle, explore and simply be themselves. Whether your companion is playful, reserved, energetic or reactive, we’ll work patiently to create portraits that feel genuine and timeless.
Behind every finished portrait are hours of careful selection, hand editing and artistic refinement to ensure every piece is worthy of becoming artwork.
-
The reveal is often my favourite part of the entire experience. Together we’ll experience your finished portraits for the very first time and select the images that speak to you most. I’ll guide you through artwork options, sizes and collections, helping you choose pieces that feel perfectly at home in your space.
-
Your artwork is entrusted to master craftsmen who hand-print, hand-finish and carefully frame each piece to museum standards.
Every finished piece returns to me for a final quality inspection before being beautifully packaged for collection or delivery.
Choose Your Portrait Experience
-

Studio Portraits
Elegant, timeless portraits where every detail is carefully crafted to celebrate your pet’s character with museum-quality artistry.
-

Outdoor Portraits
Beautiful natural landscapes and meaningful locations that tell your pet’s story in a place they love.
Products & Wall Art
Wall art transforms those memories into something you can see and feel daily. Coming home and seeing your pet’s soulful eyes or their playful energy immortalized in a fine art piece is such a beautiful thing to do. It’s not just decoration; it’s a reminder of the love and joy they bring to your life.
That’s why I focus on creating high-quality, museum-grade wall art. I want your pet’s story to have a place of honor in your home- because they are family.
More Than a Photograph.
When I photograph dogs, cats, horses or pets and their people I’m not just capturing their appearance- I’m preserving their spirit, their quirks, and the moments that make them unique. These portraits are more than just photos; they’re memories that deserve to be celebrated and cherished every single day.
We finally had our portrait session with Woof House Studio and I couldn’t be more happy with the results. Nadia is an absolute gem and I can’t wait for our next session.

For most dogs, following commands during a photoshoot can be a challenge—but don’t worry! Even well-trained dogs may struggle to hold a sit or stay during a session, and that’s completely normal. I only need a split second to capture the perfect shot. Sometimes it happens right at the beginning, and other times it’s toward the end of the session once your pup has relaxed and caught on to the fun. It’s all part of the process! Either way, I’ll get those amazing shots!
-
Nadia’s studio is located in Asbury Park, NJ, and this is likely where your session will take place for dogs, humans, and similar subjects. If you’re based in New York City, we have access to several studios there, and the specific location will be decided during the booking process.
For our equine friends, the process is a bit different. Nadia typically travels to your location, as most horse sessions are best conducted in familiar surroundings. If your site lacks an indoor arena, a well-lit barn, or a suitable space, we can arrange to hire a location that meets our needs. Don’t worry—we’ll work together to find the perfect setup!
-
I offer both print products, wall art, and digital files. Each printed image you purchase includes a matching digital file, perfectly sized for sharing on social media and saving to your devices. If you’d prefer to handle your own printing, high-resolution digital packages are also available.
Once you submit an inquiry through my contact page, I’ll share my a la carte price list after we’ve had a chance to connect.
As a portrait photographer, I encourage you to print your images. While we often have the best intentions, these meaningful memories tend to live on our phones and computers, rarely getting the attention they deserve. I’m here to help you transform your portraits into stunning wall art or tabletop displays, so they can be enjoyed every single day. I work with incredible resources to ensure your artwork is of the highest quality

Investing in fine art portraits is about more than just photographs—it’s about creating timeless, heirloom-quality artwork that celebrates the bond you share with your beloved companion.

The session fee covers the time and expertise to photograph your dog, including planning, shooting, and editing and the viewing. Prints, wall art, and digital images are sold separately so you can customize what works best for you.

Absolutely! Including you in the portraits can create beautiful moments that capture your bond. Whether it’s candid shots or posed ones, I’ll guide you to make sure you and your dog look fantastic together.
-
Of course! Including the whole family creates beautiful memories. Let me know in advance so we can plan for group shots and ensure everyone feels comfortable during the session.
-
A little exercise before the session can help burn off excess energy, but not so much that they’re overtired. Bring their favorite treats, toys, and anything that helps them relax. If grooming is part of your routine, plan it a day or two before the session so they look their best! You will recieve an email with resource links when you book which will guide you through the process.

Sessions typically last about 1–2 hours, depending on your pup’s energy and the type of shots we’re capturing. We’ll take breaks a

Absolutely. Senior dogs hold such a special place in our hearts, and it’s an honor to capture their gentle spirit and the deep bond they’ve formed with you over the years.

Absolutely! Home sessions can be wonderful, especially if your dog is most comfortable in their own space. We can discuss logistic in our consultation.

After the session, I’ll expertly edit the best images and invite you to a viewing appointment. This is where you’ll see the magic and choose your favorite portraits to purchase as prints or digital files.

Yes! Safety comes first, so I always encourage leashes during outdoor sessions. I can edit them out later, so the final images have that polished, off-leash look.
-
Yes, I’m happy to travel! If it’s outside my usual service area, there may be a small travel fee, but I’ll let you know upfront. Whether it’s a favorite park, your home, or another special location, we can tailor make the session to suit you..
-
I’d love to work with your dog and accommodate their needs. Let me know any specifics, like mobility issues or sensitivity to sounds, and I’ll create a session that’s safe, comfortable, and tailored just for them.
-
I recommend booking as early as possible, especially for seasonal or weekend sessions, which can fill up quickly. This also gives us time to plan the perfect experience for you and your pup!
