Meet Your Pet Photography Team

 

If you’re here, you already know that pets are family. My goal is to create portraits that honor who they are—their personality, their spirit, and the bond they share with the people who love them most.

Every session is designed to feel calm, guided, and enjoyable for both you and your companion. From planning through artwork delivery, I’m here to make the experience easy, meaningful, and beautifully tailored to you.

My experience with Jim was wonderful!

My experience with Jim and Judy was wonderful! Jim communicated thoroughly and the photo shoot was a ton of fun. Betty White seemed to enjoy having her photo taken. We loved the results. Thank you!!

More than a 5-star experience

If you love your dog and would love to have some stunning photos of your best friend, you can’t go wrong with Jim at Angel Dog Photography. Besides being an animal – and dog – lover and a great photographer… he captures all the nuances of their personality… I was treated to a “reveal party” where the photos were projected onto a TV screen so that I could select the best images. From start to finish, a special experience!
