Because your dog deserves more than “just cute pictures.”
You know that look your dog gives you — the one that says you’re my favorite human ever?
That’s the kind of magic I live to capture. The goofy grins. The soulful eyes. The wild zoomies. Every tail wag and side-eye moment that makes your dog them.
Dogs are our greatest adventure buddies, our best friends, and, let’s be honest — sometimes our emotional support weirdos. About A Dog Photography was born (way back in 2012!) from wanting to tell those stories, and to turn your dog’s personality into art that makes you smile every single day.
Hi! I’m Cahlean (pronounced ca-leen), the human behind the lens — and the one probably making ridiculous noises to get your dog’s attention.
For over a decade, I’ve specialized in photographing dogs being their authentic, wonderful, wiggly selves. My approach is simple: keep it fun, go with the flow, and celebrate what makes your dog unique.
Whether we’re chasing light, playing fetch mid-session, or finding that perfect head tilt, I’m all in.
My style? Vibrant. Real. Joyful.
Because your dog’s story deserves color, laughter, and a little chaos — not cookie-cutter portraits.

Meet Blue — Studio Assistant & Treat Quality Control
Every great dog photographer needs a sidekick. Mine happens to be 125 lbs of doofus. He’s been a model since a wee puppy!
Blue’s job? Napping, modeling when bribed with snacks, and reminding me to take breaks for strolls around the park. And if you’re curious, he’s a purebred Greater Swiss Mountain dog – his formal name is Remington’s Pride Blueberry Buckle!
What It’s Like to Work With Me
Think less “photo shoot” and more “adventure with a camera.”
Your session is all about your dog — their quirks, their comfort, and the bond you share.
We’ll pick a location that fits their personality, play, explore, and capture those spontaneous moments that make your dog one-of-a-kind. No stiff posing, no pressure — just fun, fur, and unforgettable photos.
When your session wraps, we’ll transform your favorite images into wall-worthy art that makes you smile every day.
