As companions, dogs serve an important role.

They encourage us to experience each moment and appreciate life's joys -- no matter how fleeting.

And, if a dog's purpose is to find those little things that make our lives that much more interesting, shouldn't their portraits be just as curious and inspiring?

We like to think so.

The Puptrait Studio was founded specifically with the purpose of celebrating this unique life enriching perspective.

Dogs give us their all -- all of their love, loyalty, affection and attention -- every day. We believe a bond that special deserves better than a simple snapshot or rushed mini session. Which is why our studio remains steadfast in our commitment to photographing dogs the right way, guided by 3 foundational principles -- creativity, quality, and safety.

For us, these pillars are more than simple buzzwords. They are instilled in every touchpoint of our commission cycle, from our hand tailored pet costumes and gallery quality prints to our high value dog treats made from 100% human grade beef.

And while much has changed from when we first hung our shingle nearly two decades ago, one thing remains certain.

Good dogs deserve our best.
