picture days for dogs & humans

learn about Dog Portrait Days & reserve your session

studio-style portraits

Dog Portrait Days are scheduled indoor picture days at locations around New England. All photos are done in front of a backdrop. Some Portrait Days include their humans, some do not, based on space & availability.

Because it's probably not often that we get photos with our dogs, the Portrait Days that offer opportunities for dog owners to be in the photos, include assistance from a professional hair & makeup artist for your best, camera-ready, natural look.

a note from the photographer

meet ling

Work gets busy. Family schedules fill up. And one day while you're relaxing on the couch with a glass of wine, your dog tries to catch your attention. Then you notice his white whiskers, and wonder, "where has all the time gone?"
Well, this is me. Even though I've been a professional photographer for a decade, I know that when I'm busy, it's too easy to let memories of my doggies slip by...leading to just images stuck in my iPhone.

My name is Ling, and I'm a professional photographer based out of Northeastern Connecticut, but I have been serving clients all over New England and New York since 2014 with event & portrait photography.

My husband and I own 3 purebred, working Rat Terriers from Warren Mountain, Vermont. They're a huge part of my world, and have inspired me as a dog photographer.
