"WOW.. such an amazing experience and piece of art for our home. We brought our dog in for some family photos and they turned out better than we could have ever expected!
Candice was a pleasure to work with and we feel she truly captured our lives in her work. Very professional and most of all FUN to go through the whole process. We highly recommend her services to anyone looking to capture this moment of their lives."

There’s so much love between Sarah and Moose. Here’s a little of their story. ❤️ ❤️
Sarah Jindra from WGN’s Spotlight Chicago brought Moose to my studio for a SEE HEAR LOVE Experience—portraits and animal communication.
I connected telepathically with Moose to hear what he wanted Sarah to know. Watch what happened when I shared his reading with her.
Thank you, Sarah and @spotlightwgn, for sharing this experience!
Discover what your own animal wants you to know. Explore the SEE HEAR LOVE Experience through the link in my bio.

We capture the moments that last forever. ❤️

I recently learned that sweet @englishtuna passed away.
⠀
Tuna was so loved. I’m incredibly grateful I got to photograph him with his family and preserve a little piece of who he was.
⠀
Rest easy, Tuna. You were one very loved boy. ❤️
What has your animal been trying to tell you?
⠀
The $500 SEE HEAR LOVE Experience brings together portraits and animal communication at Candice C. Cusic Photography in Chicago. Artwork is purchased separately.
⠀
I photograph your animal and connect with them telepathically, then share their portraits and what I received during their reading at your private reveal.
⠀
This experience is part of The SEE HEAR LOVE Project™, which explores the bond between animals and their people. Participating animals are also considered for the upcoming book; selection is editorial and not guaranteed.
⠀
Tell me about your animal and what you’d love to hear from them:

Tootsie has been adopted! ❤️
⠀
When I met her through Hinsdale Humane Society, she was waiting for a home. During her animal communication reading, I received this message:
⠀
“The past isn’t a mirror. It’s not our future.”
⠀
Her reading held humor, hope, and an appreciation for something simple: “I have a bed and a blanket now!”
⠀
Watch Tootsie’s full SEE HEAR LOVE story—from her portrait session to the conversation about what I received during her reading.

Happy World Vegetarian Day! 💚🐐
⠀
I haven’t eaten animals in 38 years.
⠀
By one U.S. estimate, that’s the equivalent of sparing roughly 14,000–22,000 animals, including fish and shellfish. It’s an estimate, but a reminder that our everyday choices add up.
⠀
Animals have always mattered to me. These days, I photograph them and listen to what they want to share.
⠀
And occasionally take selfies with goats.
Meet Peanut. 🐾
⠀
Michelle is fostering Peanut through @sayvanimalorg. When I photographed him and listened to what he wanted to share, Peanut told me what it felt like to be alone and what changed when Michelle took a chance on him.
⠀
He also shared his love of green grass, frothy ice cream, and warm hands on his back. And he explained what he means when he licks someone’s ankles.
⠀
This is Peanut’s full SEE HEAR LOVE film: his portrait, his words, and his story. Which part stayed with you?

Did you know your animal can have their own SEE HEAR LOVE Experience?
⠀
I photograph your animal and connect with them intuitively to learn what they want you to know. Later that same day, you see their portraits and hear their words together at a private reveal.
⠀
The Experience is $500 at Candice C. Cusic Photography in Chicago. Finished artwork is purchased separately.
