These days pets are increasingly being considered members of the family. As people are having children later in life, the focus on ones career brings pets into the scene. These pets are often cherished as much as children and their quality of life is a top priority in the minds of their owners. This regard for animal welfare, along with the design savvy culture we live in, has influenced pet photography as well as the pet industry in general.This showcase portrays how good design and aesthetics can change our perception of pet photography. Enjoy!

It’s evident from these images that the photographers have a great passion for what they do – afterall patience is necessary in this line of work. This extra attention to detail and the nuances of working with pets has definitely paid off for these photographers, don’t you think?

Very excellent list indeed – but where the heck is Scruffy Dog Photography? http://scruffydogphotography.com/ Or is this list just for US photographers? Illona is outstanding.
Hi Joanna,
Thank you for the reply! We’re going to create a second edition of Inspirational Pet Photographers in the future, and will surely consider Scruffy Dog Photography in that process. Thanks for reading!
Hehe … I have started already. But our area is not super big on Pet photography YET!!
I’m pushing and fighting to keep my dream a live here 
Awe! Cool!! Thank you for including me in this great list!
No problem Nicole!
…and you can’t forget one of the best – Sharon Montrose http://www.sharonmontrose.com/
She’s an inspiration!
We’ll definitely check out her work and consider her for the next Pet Photographers post, Debbie! Thanks for passing her site along.
what am i?! chopped liver?
Hi Robyn – Don’t fret! We’re going to be making another list in a few months and will definitely check out your work! There are many great pet photographers worthy of being on the site.
Thanks for the inclusion, it’s an honour to be listed among these awesome photographers.
You’re welcome Charlotte!
What an amazing list of photographers, so very happy for the many that I call friends and many who inspired me when I started my business. So awesome
Great pics. Makes me want to keep on going. Though I am pet photographer and would love to make your list one day, I would love for you to take a peak at a good photog friend of mine http://www.dianelewisphotography.com
So love her work.
Thanks
Thank you for passing that along Andrea! I’m always on the lookout for new pet photographers.
This is a great idea to give photographers a profile. Don’t forget Julianna from twoguineapigs photograpohy too – she has been in the industry a while now, gaining awards and doing amazing work
http://www.twoguineapigs.com.au/
Sassy Pet Photography in the DC area, started out last year. http://www.sassypetphotos.com
I seriously can’t believe http://www.robynarouty.com/ (Houston, TX) did not make the list. She blows everyone else out of the water. Seriously check out her site if you haven’t seen her work- she is an inspiration and does so much to support rescue.
Hi Cassie,
Thank you for passing on those links.
We’re going to create another list in the next few months and will be sure to include Robyn.
I just saw this! Thank you so much for including me!!
You missed one – robyn arouty photography. Stellar. Unique.
I just emailed your blog to my sister. You need to see her work http://www.serenahphotography.com.au. She is one of Australia’s most creative pet photographers and won multiple awards on a global standard.
Hmmm… not to be biast but you forgot to add one very talented pet photographer http://www.serenahphotography.com.au, in fact I think she should be number one on the list (not just because she is my sister
) but because Serena is an international multi award winning photographer with her images featuring on cards and books gloabally!
Hi Cindy – we’ll definitely feature Serenahphotography.com on our next pet photographers list. Thanks for passing her site along!
Some amazing work there, there are some seriously talented pet photographers out there. Congrats to those on the list, I guess I must be at 31st
Craig @FURtography

A wonderful list of pet photographers – what great inspiration. I’d love to read a post about what kind of camera gear they use and post processing software. Though, they probably don’t want to give away all their secrets!
