Hi-ya! I’m Michelle,
A.K.A your pet brand’s new
best friend.
After years in the fashion photography industry, I’ve traded high-fashion sets for high-energy snouts, while bringing that same editorial precision to every brand I partner with.
Now based in Chicago, I’ve built a studio that serves as a home for pet brands of all sizes. I’m just as passionate about capturing the soul of our neighborhood boutique staples as I am about scaling national e-commerce names. Whether we’re shooting a 50-SKU product catalog or building a lifestyle campaign from scratch, I’m here to help you stand out with visuals that actually connect — because in a world full of noise, it’s okay to howl.
