I’m Candra. I love capturing the personalities and laughable traits of your pets.
Your pet means the world to you and you’re inseparable. And you want to hold onto these moments and cherish this bond forever.
I celebrate your pet and the bond you share by creating beautiful Wall Art portraits & photo albums that are authentic, real & relational.
I’m a pet photographer based out of Owen Sound, Ontario. Families come to me because they want to decorate their home with custom art work of their pet, they want to be in some of the photos, and they want to feel comfortable and relaxed.
When you see your pet’s portrait, you will smile and say ‘Yep, that is Sir Lancelot right there. He always poses like a knight’ – okay, you may not say exactly that, but you will smile.
They are so cute & compassionate and are such a huge part of our lives. They experience the good & bad times, laughter & tears, and births & deaths – They truly are family.

The essential joy of being with horses is that it brings us in contact
with the rare elements of grace, beauty, spirit and freedom.
