We offer an amazing experience and bonding opportunity for you to share with your best friend. I help pet parents freeze time on those wagging tails, playful purrs, and wet-nosed kisses, creating timeless portraits that will bring your family joy for a lifetime. We celebrate and capture the unique bond between people and their most loyal family members, their pets. We then transform that image into a piece of art as a daily reminder of the simple pleasures in life, the importance of unconditional love, and the unique bond we share with our furry companions.
I am a professional dog trainer who has a passion for animals and advocates for all dogs to have the best lives possible. I am passionate about canine enrichment, and believe in an animal first philosophy. I love to learn about dogs, their behaviors, their mind, and their potential. At the end of 2021, I was working as a dog trainer and I seen the effects the pandemic was having on the dog community. More socialization has always been needed, but the pandemic exasperated the number of devastating cases we were seeing every day. I thought, what could I do to get owners to bring their dog into a safe social setting to get some of the socialization they need? After a lot of thought, I began offering photography services for pets at the training center during the holidays.
The owners loved it, the dogs loved it, and I was hooked.
Pawz to Pose has never been just for the "perfect" dogs, it was for the dogs that were scared, the dogs who needed confidence, the dogs who needed to have a fantastic experience with a stranger. Just because a pet has some behavioral challenges, that doesn't mean they should never participate in all the amazing experiences that are available to dogs and their owners. I know that not all dogs are able to handle certain environments and stimuli, or they may not have be perfectly trained... but that's ok! They are the reason we are here. We will never turn away from the dogs that will benefit from a positive experience in the pet service industry.
All of our sessions are set with safety and the comfortability of your pet in mind, while shining a light on how amazing and special each and every one of our pets are.
Hello! I am so happy you're here!
My name is Kali and I'm very happy to meet you, even if it is over text. I want to take this opportunity to tell you a little about myself and why photography is so important to me.
In my daily life, I play a lot of roles. I'm a dog mom, a dog trainer, a pet photographer and, admittedly, obsessed with dogs. (Basically they are my whole life). When I found a way to combine my love of dogs with my passion for photography, an obsession was born.
When I am not photographing dogs, I like to spend time with my own dogs. I want them to live their best life too. My pack consist of two Cane Corsos, one Golden Retriever, and one Malinois, and I love them all to pieces!
