What Our Clients Say

MEET YOUR

PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi, I’m Michelle, mom to two human children and five fur babies. As a lifelong pet owner, I know how much our furry friends can change our lives, and how much we miss them when they are gone.

Having a pet in your life is a special bond that goes beyond words.

Having beautiful photos that tell the story of those special relationships is a wonderful way to honor and treasure those times with them.

I have loved many pets in my life, and each one has a special place in my heart. I cannot imaging my life being complete without them, and I find comfort in being able to remember their sweet faces and personalities.

My first heart dog was Patches, a border collie on our farm in Mississippi. She died young, shot by a hunter, and we never had a photo of her. I remember her sweet heart, but I don’t have any photos of her sweet face. I don’t want anyone to have to go without those memories of their special fur baby.

Of course, like all pet owners, I have pulled out the cell phone for snapshots of my fur babies, only to find they were blurry and badly lit, that I have not captured the action, or that my dirty laundry is distressingly obvious in the background. In the studio, using all the tools at my disposal, I can create those heart-stopping, action-stopping photos that encompass the true beauty of your sweet babies!

Let me create beautiful artwork for you so you never have to go a day without seeing that sweet face and that joyful personality!

Hi, I'm Michelle, the pet-loving owner and photographer at Mariposa Studio. I love sitting on the floor with 80 pounds of dog in my lap (or five pounds; doesn't matter as long as I'm getting licked in the face) and making puppy noises to get that perfect head tilt. You will never catch me complaining when a dog jumps on me! I consider it the highest compliment.

Have Some Questions?

My dog doesn't really obey commands. Can I still get photos?

Yes! Please don't be concerned at all about your dog's behavior. Lots of dogs get really excited when they are in the studio, which is a new place to them. I think it's wonderful that they are having fun and getting a new experience, and I start every session by giving them a chance to sniff around and get comfy. I have photographed puppies who weren't yet trained and old dogs who were too deaf to hear commands. I have photographed food-motivated dogs and dogs who only care about toys. Every session is customized to YOUR dog, whatever their unique personality might be!

What do I need to bring?

During the planning of your session, we might talk about several things that your dog loves and that we might want to include in the photos. If there's something specific, like a treasured blanket or toy, I try to remind you the before the session. If you forget something, thought, don't worry! I keep treats and toys in the studio. I also keep all manner of clean-up supplies for those little "too excited" moments.

Can I be in the photos with my pets?

You aren't required to be in the photos -- and for some people, it's the last thing they want -- but if you'd like to be in some photos with your fur babies, I actively encourage it! Let me know beforehand and we will send you our tips for what to wear. (Hint: matching outfits with your dog, always a win in my book!)
