Puppy Photography in Northern Virginia

Because they grow up way too fast!

The photos in this gallery capture those sweet, fleeting moments of puppyhood (but not the sharp little puppy teeth, because no one wants to remember those!). These photos preserve the beginning of your life together, when everything is new and your puppy is still small enough to scoop up. Whether you book a single session or choose the Watch Me Grow plan to document your puppy’s first year, you’ll have photos to treasure long after the puppy stage has passed.

Your puppy is only this little once—photos help you hold onto those early moments forever. Ready to get started?

Safety note: Like many the dogs I photograph, most of the puppies in this gallery were on a leash during their session (including all the puppies in both group photos below). After the photo shoot, I edited the leash out. Safety always comes first—especially with puppies aren’t big fans of staying still.

What To Expect From Your Puppy Photography Session

Puppy sessions are relaxed, playful, and fun! I let your puppy explore, play, and just be themselves while I capture their personality and those irresistible expressions. While most sessions take place on my private property in Loudoun County, Northern Virginia, I also photograph at locations that are meaningful to you, such as your home or favorite park.

Bonus: It tires them out! Almost every client texts me afterward to say their puppy fell asleep before they even got to the end of my road. Additionally, many puppies (and therefore their people) also sleep through the night after their photo shoot. Not surprisingly, I’ve even had people joke about coming back for photo shoots the next day. And the day after that. And… well, you get it!

Want to remember every stage of puppyhood?

From big paws to mischievous moments, I’ll help you capture it all!

My Watch Me Grow plan is perfect for capturing your puppy’s first year—from tiny paws to gangly legs to young adult dog. You think you’ll always remember how small they were, but without photos, those memories fade. Documenting each stage gives you something real to hold onto, long after they’ve grown.

Prefer to focus on one stage? I also offer single sessions.

These early days are full of energy, personality, and change. Let’s make sure you have photos to match.

Looking to add a puppy to your family?
I highly recommend Lonely Hearts Animal Rescue in Frederick, MD—that’s where we adopted Lola and Aeneas, my two. Also, if you adopt a puppy from them and mention their name when you book your photo shoot, I’ll donate $100 from your session fee to support the incredible work they do.
