Let’s celebrate your pet and Family by Creating Authentic portraits That Aren’t Cookie-Cutter and will Help You Hold Them Close To You.
I’m an Owen Sound photographer specializing in Pet photography (heheh a.k.a dog photography) and Family photography,
YOU have been looking for a way to celebrate your fur-baby & family, and you just can’t get a good photo of them. You’re wanting heart-felt, authentic portraits that showcase your pet and family’s personalities, you want to be in some of the photos, and you want a no-stress experience where you feel comfortable and relaxed. Well you have come to the right place. I help you get all of that! Oh and sessions aren’t boring hehe they are moment driving as we are always doing something…and after your fun session, everyone will have the best sleep of their lives.
This is no cookie-cutter experience…it’s a once-in-a-life time experience 🙂
I have been working full time at creating custom pet portraits since 2013. And OMG I love meeting and photographing all your amazing pets!
When you see your dog run around and then candidly pose, you will smile and say ‘Yep, that is our boy right there. He always poses like a knight’ – okay, you may not say exactly that, but you will smile.
Why do I do what I do…
It’s simple. Our family grows up way too fast and we want to hold onto these memories for as long as we can. Sometimes a single portrait can bring tears to your eyes.

I can’t say enough good things about Candra! She recently worked with my daughter (15 yrs)and her horse, creating some precious and beautiful photos and memories. Candra is very professional, but also creates a lot of ease and fun during the photo shoot. She gave practical and easy to follow tips and instructions to my daughter in order to capture some priceless and unique photographs with her horse. We would both highly recommend Candra to anyone!
