Cusic Photography Studio Celebrates Two Years on Chicago Ave.

  • awesome pet photography
  • Chicago family and pet photographer, Cusic Photo, capture image of women in blue shirt with dark hair with her dog.
  • Downtown Chicago Pet Photographer
  • Chicago lesbian engagement session

I cannot believe I opened my studio 2 years ago!  Here is a rundown on what that looks like:

In 2 years we have photographed over 100 families,  worked with 15 interns, emptied five cases of dog biscuits and have made at least 40 trips to the Dollar Store down the street!

We’ve had 1 dog pee on our couch, 2 dogs deuce in our gallery and have cleaned up an estimated five buckets of slobber off of our floors.

We have placed hundreds of custom artwork orders for our clients , have attended over 40 events with our Chicago GIF boomerang photo booth and have raised hundreds of dollars for several animal rescues in Chicagoland.

I’m truly honored to be a part of the West Town Chamber of Commerce and to have a beautiful storefront on historic Chicago Ave.  I love going to work every day and cannot wait for another year of doing what I love.

Thank you, here are just a few of my favorite studio photographs!  Take a look at my Instagram account for all the behind the scenes and a tour of my studio!

    Meet Tootsie 💛
    ⠀
    Surrendered by her owner, Tootsie arrived at Hinsdale Humane Society with little to no information about her past. That’s where we stepped in.
    ⠀
    Nicole, Administrative Manager at Hinsdale Humane Society, brought Tootsie to us and is part of this moment you’re seeing—helping us begin to understand who Tootsie really is.
    ⠀
    The See Hear Love Project is the only project that combines animal communication and professional photography—helping uncover each dog’s story and showing who they truly are.
    ⠀
    Now it’s Tootsie’s turn to be seen for exactly who she is 💫
    ⠀
    Seen. Heard. Loved.
    ⠀

    Avalanche didn’t start life this way.
    ⠀
    Rescued from a hoarding situation through @reddoorshelter, his world was once crowded, uncertain, and far from safe.
    ⠀
    But something beautiful happened—
    his foster saw him… and never let him go.
    ⠀
    Avalanche is now home.
    ⠀
    ⠀
    Seen. Heard. Loved.

    Meet Blanca.
    Rescued, but still learning how to feel safe again.
    During her animal communication session, Blanca shared a feeling of being abandoned in the rain—until Michelle, her foster mom, found her and brought her to safety.
    “I’m scared… but I’m trying.”
    She’s waiting for someone to show her she’s finally home.
    Blanca and other incredible animals are available for adoption at SAYv Animal Organization (@sayvanimalorg).

    Each session begins with an on-camera communication reading followed by a professional portrait session, allowing foster animals to connect with potential adopters through emotion and storytelling.
    Ramona’s message is part of a larger mission to bring visibility to animals waiting for homes and to highlight the life-saving power of fostering.

    Your best friend at home deserves to be celebrated.
    Not just in your camera roll — but in fine art that lives on your wall.
    That’s why I hire a professional trainer for every session.
    Because your best friend deserves to feel safe, calm, and supported while we create something beautiful.
    And because women celebrate everyone else in their lives…
    Why not the one who waits for you at home?

    For the women who love fiercely — and the dogs who love them right back. 🖤
    ⠀
    That kind of connection deserves to be remembered as art.
