Our Work
A Gallery of Gentle Giants
Every session is a love letter to the bond between giant breeds and their humans.
The Story Behind the Lens
Hi, I'm Kevin,
and I am utterly devoted to big dogs.
After spending years photographing all kinds of animals, I found my true calling in the gentle eyes of large dog breeds. There's something extraordinary about capturing the contrast between their massive stature and their tender, loving souls.
Every Great Dane slumped on a couch, every Bernese Mountain Dog covered in snow, every Mastiff cuddling a toddler — these are the moments I live to freeze in time. Because we all know, they never stay small enough.
Breed-Specific Expertise
We understand the unique personalities of each giant breed — from the regal Great Dane to the snuggly Newfoundland. Every session is tailored to bring out their true character.
Natural & Relaxed
No studio lights or stiff poses. We photograph in natural light, in environments where your dog feels at home — because that's when their soul truly shines.
Family-Centered
Your giant breed isn't just a pet — they're family. We capture that love, whether it's a solo portrait session or a full family gathering with your fur babies.

Kind Words
What Families Are Saying
“We were nervous about photographing our Great Dane — he's enormous and never sits still. But the session was so relaxed and natural. The photos made us sob. Pure magic.”
“Our Bernese Mountain Dog passed away two months after our session. I cannot overstate how priceless those images are to our family now. We will treasure them forever.”
“He captured our Mastiff's goofy personality AND his regal dignity in the same shoot. Somehow he got him to cooperate for a full two hours. Absolute miracle worker.”
“We did a full family session with our three Irish Wolfhounds. The logistics alone would terrify most photographers. He handled it all with patience, humor, and incredible skill.”

Common Questions
- How far in advance should I book?
- We typically book 4-8 weeks out, especially for weekend sessions. Golden-hour and fall sessions fill quickly, so the earlier the better!
- What if my dog doesn't cooperate?
- We're professional dog wranglers at heart. We build in plenty of time, use high-value treats, and follow your dog's lead. The candid moments are often the best ones.
- Where do sessions take place?
- Primarily outdoors — parks, trails, open fields, your backyard. We'll scout the perfect location together based on your area and your dog's personality.
- Do you travel for destination shoots?
- Yes! We offer destination sessions anywhere within a 2-hour drive of Denver — Estes Park, Boulder, Rocky Mountain foothills, Colorado Springs, and beyond. A flat $150 travel fee covers mileage and time. Farther afield? Just ask.
- When will I receive my photos?
- Your private gallery will be delivered within 2-3 weeks of your session. Rush delivery (48 hrs) is available for an additional fee.
