Ramona the Rescue Pig!

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Ramona, a beloved rescue pig from Chicago Pigland Rescue, at my studio in Hubbard Street Lofts. Ramona’s visit turned into a delightful event as she charmed everyone in the building. Tenants eagerly followed her, snapping selfies and enjoying her playful presence. One gentleman even asked us to pause so he could Facetime his girlfriend, who adores pigs, to share this special moment with her!

Ramona’s portrait session was particularly special, featuring her posing with bubbles that highlighted her whimsical and joyful nature. This rescue pig, who is so cherished by her family that she even sleeps in their bed, was the star of the session. Capturing her unique personality and the love she shares with her owners was truly heartwarming.

As a Chicago pet and family photographer, I am dedicated to creating personalized and meaningful portraits that celebrate the special bonds between pets and their families. Ramona’s session beautifully demonstrated how a pet can touch the lives of many and how professional photography can preserve these precious moments.

Whether you’re looking to celebrate your pet’s unique personality or capture special family memories, professional photography offers high-quality, lasting images that you’ll treasure. At Candice C. Cusic Photography, I specialize in creating stunning portraits that showcase the love and connection you share with your pets and family, ensuring these moments are preserved for years to come.

    Chicago Pet Photographer

    Get ready with me—Chicago pet photographer & animal communicator edition.

My mornings start with movement, intention—and coffee.Because every day, I show up for animals.The ones waiting for a home.And the ones already part of your family.

This is how I begin.With purpose. With heart.And a whole lot of love for the animals who trust me to tell their story.

Giving animals a voice—through connection and story.

    “Did she wait for me before she passed?”
It’s one of the most heart-wrenching questions I receive.
And often, the answer brings unexpected peace.
As an animal communicator in Chicago, I help grieving pet parents reconnect—because love doesn’t disappear. It evolves.

    It’s not bad behavior. It’s communication.
Hiding, biting, avoiding affection—your cat might be trying to tell you something.
In a session, I translate the “why” behind their actions so you can respond with confidence and compassion.
