“They’re my boys too… they don’t belong to everyone.” 🐾
That’s what sweet Maggie shared during her animal communication session with her dads, @maggieandherdads.
Our pets have emotions, preferences, and wisdom they’re just waiting to share—if we take the time to listen.
As a professional animal communicator based in Chicago, I help pet parents connect more deeply with their animals through intuitive, heart-centered communication.

Why do we love photographing black dogs on black backgrounds? 🖤🐾
Because their fur becomes pure velvet under the right light. Capturing the rich texture and soulful expressions of black-coated dogs takes precision—and a professional eye.
At our Chicago pet photography studio, we specialize in lighting and posing that reveals the depth and beauty often missed in darker-coated pets. It’s a refined, timeless look—and one that requires technical expertise to do right.
If you have a black dog, let’s create artwork as stunning and unique as they are.

What makes us different? We take the time your dog needs. 🐶✨
When Vivienne came to our studio, we didn’t rush. We gave her the space to explore, settle in, and truly shine—and that’s when the magic happened. 💫
What sets us apart? We invite every client to bring their pet to our Chicago studio for a pre-session tour—because comfort leads to confidence in front of the camera.
🐾 Nervous rescue dog?
🐾 Senior pup with mobility needs?
🐾 High-energy goofball who needs time to adjust?
We’ve got you.

I’ve been a vegetarian since I was 18—because I’ve always felt a deep connection to animals.
As a professional pet and family photographer, I’ve spent years capturing the love we share with them.
And now, as an animal communicator, I help you hear what your pet wants you to know—whether they’re still with you or have passed.
When I met my first goat, I was so thrilled I had to take a selfie. That joy? That connection? It’s exactly why I do this work.
If you’ve ever wished you could better understand your pet’s emotions—or simply want to feel closer to them—I’d be honored to help.
