Bold, Playful, Action-Packed Dog Photography
Celebrating America’s Heartland from Emporia, KS
Serving Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and Oklahoma.
From mud-splattered sprint shots to soulful senior portraits, I freeze every epic moment.
Based in Emporia and chasing tails across the Heartland, I turn your dog’s biggest moments into wall-worthy art. Ready to celebrate your epic pup? Let’s chat.
The Process
Say Hey!
Start the conversation. Hit the “Request to Book” button, where we will schedule a no-obligation phone or Zoom call to explore your vision. If it’s a match, you’ll snag one of my Friday-Sunday slots.
Photo Day!
Action-packed shoot. We meet on-location (or in-studio for the month’s theme), load up the treats, and chase wags, jumps, and joyful chaos until your hound is perfectly captured.
Get Your Photos!
Choose & cherish. Within two weeks, you’ll receive a private gallery to pick your favorites, order prints, or grab merch—turning epic moments into forever moments.
Art Beyond Photos
I’m not just taking dog photos—I’m turning every leap, grin, and silly moment into gallery-grade artwork you’ll show off for decades. Whether one explosive action shot or a full gallery-wall story, everything is produced through professional labs unavailable to the public.
Statement wall art: from $600
Collections & albums: from $700 (for those “I need them ALL” feels)
Each print includes its matching web-size digital so you can light up your feed while the heirloom hangs at home—bold, playful, action-packed, and made to last.
Digital image only packages available.
Dog-First Session Promise
Your dog’s well-being outranks every photo on my shot list. Here’s what that means on set:
Health & Safety First
I watch for stress signals (yawns, lip-licks, shake-offs). If I see them, we pause—water break, sniff break, whatever your pup needs.Trainer-Led Direction
As a certified trainer, I’ll coach you on handling, cues, and positioning. Please follow those directions; it keeps the session fun and safe. Ignoring guidance may end the shoot early without a refund.Gentle Gear Intro
New to camera clicks or studio lights? We’ll spend a few minutes counter-conditioning so your dog feels confident before we start shooting.No Judgment Zone
Reactivity, shyness, “big feelings”—all welcome. If we have to keep leashes on, I can usually edit those out of your final photos. If your dog isn’t coping after breaks, we’ll stop and reschedule or refund. I’ll point you to training resources at HeartlandHounds.com to set up a future win.Welfare > Work
The shot will never come before your dog’s comfort. That’s a guarantee.
Thanks for teaming up with me to keep every tail wagging throughout the process!

The puppy decides the pace! My job is to capture their unique personality as they grow. Usually this will be a silly shoot with quick burst of photos followed by treat and play breaks.

-
45 minutes to 2 hours
-
Starting at $200
-
Relaxed pace with some light play breaks
-
Year Round. Depending on your preferences, we will likely have session closer to sunrise or sunset. We will try to avoid harsh mid-day lighting (cloudy days are amazing!). During summer, sunrise sessions will have priority over sunset sessions due to long days.
Senior Stories
Gentle pacing, extra cuddles, no rush. Celebrate grey muzzles and wise eyes with images that honor a lifetime of love.
-
Up to 90 minutes
-
Starting at $100
I offer a special rate for senior stories. Your dog must be considered a senior for their breed ( 7+ years old on average) to qualify for this special rate.
I do not do “rainbow” photo shoots within the dog’s final days. I want to capture your senior dog in a way that gives you a great memory.
-
Very relaxed with extra breaks and extra treats!
-
Year-Round
-
Up to 45 minutes (no more than 15 minutes total of active photography time). Studio setups can be very stressful to dogs and those lights are hot!

A quick, but calm pace. The goal is to keep your dog in the studio for as little time as possible to reduce their stress.

FAQs
-
While I specialize in dogs, I photograph other animals on a case-by-case basis. Request a booking and let’s have a call!
-
Nope! Wiggly pups, reactive “big-feelings” dogs, and slow-mo seniors are all welcome. As a certified trainer I’ll guide both you and your dog with positive-reinforcement handling and plenty of breaks.
-
Absolutely. Nearly every dog I photograph is leashed for safety; I edit leashes (and humans) out afterward so the final art looks carefree.
-
Your dog’s welfare beats every shot. We’ll pause, redirect, or reschedule at no charge if stress signals persist while you’re following my direction. Need extra prep? I’ll point you to resources at HeartlandHounds.com.
-
Client sessions run Fridays, Saturdays, & Sundays only. Golden-hour (sunset) slots fill first, so inquire early.
Events/products can book select weekends or weekdays on request.
-
Based in Emporia, I travel across Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and Oklahoma. We’ll choose prairie fields, urban murals, sports venues, lakes, forests, or my pop-up studio—whatever fits your dog’s vibe.
-
I only photograph your dog and do not take commissions on human-animal photoshoots. For returning clients, senior stories, or special events, I might make an exception.
-
A proof gallery hits your inbox within 14 days. Pick your favorites, then order wall art, albums, or digitals. Final retouched files arrive 1–2 weeks after selections. Print items may take longer depending on the printer’s schedule.
-
Yes. A five-image starter set comes optimized for social media, and you can print up to 5×7. Larger bundles are available, though most clients pair files with heirloom prints. Each print comes with the digital file. I do not provide high-resolution image files.
-
We reschedule at no fee—or move indoors—because prairie weather writes its own script. I will still shoot in rain or snow, as long as conditions are safe.
-
Yes! You get your artwork after your payments are complete.
