Yappy Hour

Ever wanted to have a cocktail while hanging out with dogs? Well, now you can. On Thursday, May 12th, we are having an open house with Paw Natural, Canine Crews, and The West Town Chamber of Commerce we will be having a Yappy Hour! Yes, you heard that right, Yappy hour.

It will be a fun night full of lite bites and sips, as well as treat bags from Paw Naturals, a pet photo booth, a prize wheel, and of course lots and lots of dogs!

Hope to see you and your furry friends there! It should be a howling good time!

No fake smiles. No awkward posing. Just real moments, beautifully captured.
At Candice C. Cusic Photography, we believe your family portraits should feel like you—not like a chore. Let your kids be kids, laugh out loud, and make memories while I quietly capture the love in between.
📸 Based in Chicago | Specializing in candid, Moment-Driven™ family photography

The shoot ➡️ the shot. 🎬✨
Behind every perfect pet portrait is a little chaos, a lot of love, and some serious magic.

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.

"I just need to know she’s okay."
This is one of the most tender questions I receive.
In a session, I share what your pet wants you to hear—whether they’re with you or have passed on.
Often, it’s exactly what your heart needs.

“Are we the only ones who want to photograph our family and include our dogs?”
You’re not alone. In fact—you’re in the majority. 🐾❤️
Every week, families walk into our Chicago studio with the same wish:
“We want to celebrate our family, including the dogs who made it whole.”
Time moves fast. Dogs grow older. Life changes. That’s why so many families choose to capture these moments now—before they become memories.
This portrait of an elderly couple with their two beloved dogs is a reminder:
It’s never “just a dog.” It’s family.
📍Chicago pet and family photography that honors your story—furry family members included.
