Ohio Adventure Dog Photography - Teddy's Creek Session

Teddy the dog was ready for his close-up during his adventurous outdoor pet photography session.

I just love a dog who's not afraid to get their feet wet—it makes a photo shoot so much more fun! There’s something special about capturing a pup’s pure joy as they play in the water, and it creates the most vibrant and dynamic photos. One of my recent shoots with Teddy, an adventurous pup, was a perfect example of this.

Meet Teddy: The Creek-Splashing Superstar

Teddy came ready to play. We headed out to a picturesque hiking spot with a gently flowing creek surrounded by the rich, golden hues of autumn. As soon as Teddy saw the water, his eyes lit up, and I knew we were in for a great time. It’s always a treat when a dog is willing to explore new environments, and Teddy was all about it—no hesitation, just excitement.

Why Water Makes for Great Photos

There’s a certain magic that happens when dogs play in water. The way it splashes around them, how it reflects the light and colors from the scene, and the added movement—it all comes together to create visually stunning images. In Teddy’s case, the cool creek and the surrounding fall foliage gave us a beautiful natural backdrop. The vibrant colors reflected off the water, adding a warm glow to every shot. It was the perfect setting for photographing the spirit of an adventurous dog.

Capturing the Moment

Teddy wasted no time diving right in. He immediately got in the water the moment he saw it, splashing and chasing after leaves floating by. His joyful energy was infectious, making the session not only fun for him and his owner, but for me as the pet photographer as well. Some of my favorite shots from the day were of Teddy mid-splash, with water droplets frozen in time around him. It’s moments like these that remind me why I love what I do—being able to capture the soul of a dog in their most authentic state.

Tips for a Water Photo Shoot with Your Dog

If you’re an outdoor enthusiast considering a professional photo shoot for your water-loving dog, here are a few pro-tips:

• Bring Towels: It’s always a good idea to have a towel or two on hand for a quick dry-off afterward.

• Pick a Safe, Dog-Friendly Spot: Opt for creeks, shallow streams, or lake where your dog can safely play without or strong currents. I have a list of great dog-friendly spots in the Columbus, Ohio area that have been the perfect locations for for these types of sessions. Don’t want to have to hike to get to a spot? I’ve got you covered! I even have some water options that are just mere steps from a parking lot.

• Let Your Dog Lead the Way: Some dogs may be hesitant at first, so let them explore at their own pace. We will NEVER push or pressure your dog into the water. If they decide to jump right in like Teddy, then great! If they prefer to stay on the edge, that’s perfectly fine too.

• Dress Appropriately: Chances are, you might get a little wet too. I recommend owner’s wear water-proof footwear such as rain boots, hiking boots, or even sandals. Wearing clothing that is safe to get wet is also important (so probably best to leave the cashmere sweaters and dry clean-only pants at home for this one).

Why Adventure Dog Photo Shoots Are Perfect for Outdoor Lovers

For dog owners who love to hike and explore nature, an adventure dog photo shoot is a fantastic way to capture your pet’s playful personality in their favorite environment. Imagine having professional photos of your dog splashing in a creek, running through forest trails, or posing against a scenic Appalachian foothills backdrop. These types of sessions are perfect for capturing the unique bond between you and your dog while incorporating something special that you both love.

Autumn Pet Photography Session in Central Ohio - Murphy and Mella

Murphy the Dachshund during his professional dog photography session in central Ohio

As the leaves turn vibrant shades of red, orange, and yellow, it's the perfect time for a professional pet photography session in Ohio. I recently had the absolute pleasure of capturing two adorable dogs, Murphy the dachshund, and Mella the mini golden doodle, at one of my all-time favorite spots in Ohio. Let me take you behind the scenes of this memorable fall photo shoot and show you why autumn is one of the best seasons for pet photography in Ohio!

Meet Murphy the Dachshund and Mella the Mini Golden Doodle

Murphy and Mella are quite the dynamic duo. Murphy, a lively dachshund brings a classic charm to every photo. His short legs and long body make him an absolute joy to photograph (I am a total sucker for short-legged dogs). Mella, is a fluffy mini golden doodle with an irresistibly sweet face. Her soft, wavy fur and playful personality made for the perfect contrast against the rich fall backdrop.

Why Fall is the Best Time for Pet Photography in Ohio

The vibrant fall colors are a photographer's dream, especially when it comes to outdoor pet photo session. I have a favorite hidden gem photo shoot location here in central Ohio that never disappoints, and that’s exactly where we did Murphy and Mella’s photo shoot. I love how the colorful fall leaves carpet the creek bed every fall, creating a natural, picture-perfect setting. I often find myself wishing the fall season would last all year long, as it provides the most stunning backdrop for capturing the unique personalities of pets.

Tips for a Successful Fall Pet Photo Shoot

If you're considering a professional pet photography session in Ohio this fall, here are a few tips to make the most of it:

Puppy kisses: A sweet candid moment during this dog and owner photo shoot

1. Choose the Right Location: There are several local parks and wooded trails in the Central Ohio area that have great fall color. Whether you want to have your dog’s photo shoot at Hocking Hills, Highbanks Metro Park, Hoover Reservoir, or anywhere in between, chatting with your dog photographer about location is a great first step to making sure you have an incredible and memorable pet photography experience.

2. Dress for the Season: Not just for the humans—consider bringing a cute bandana or seasonal accessory for your pup. It can add a nice touch of personality to the photos and make them feel more festive. For This photo shoot, Murphy’s owner dressed him in a dapper bowtie collar.

3. Time It Right: The best time for a fall photo shoot is during the "golden hour," shortly after sunrise or just before sunset. The soft, warm light enhances the colors of the leaves and adds a magical glow to the photos.

4. Let Your Pets Be Themselves: The most captivating pet photos come from candid moments. Let your dogs explore, play, and show their true personalities. It’s in these unscripted moments that we capture their unique spirit.

Columbus Ohio Rescue Dog Photography - Macy from FCDS

I like to think that as one final act of love after a pet crosses the Rainbow Bridge, they guide your next dog to you from the other side. I think that's how Macy here found her way into Mike and Nora's home. After losing their beloved pup Rajah last year, they decided it was finally time to open their hearts to another dog. Since they had adopted Rajah from the Franklin County Dog Shelter & Adoption Center shelter (FCDS), they wanted to find their next pet there as well.

Macy’s journey to FCDS was a difficult one. After her previous owner was arrested and facing a lengthy jail sentence, the police brought Macy to FCDS. But everything changed the day Nora and Mike met her; there was an instant connection, and they knew she was meant to be part of their family.

Despite her rough start, Macy is unbelievably sweet and trusting. You might notice her slightly quirky expression—veterinarians believe she may have been hit in the face quite hard, an injury that broke off all the teeth on one side of her face and caused nerve damage, leading to some facial paralysis.

I’m constantly amazed by the resilience of dogs. Despite all the trauma she’s been through, Macy waddled right up to me with a wagging tail, eager to say "hello." She stayed by my side, happily munching on treats while I captured her beautiful spirit through my lens.

Every rescue dog has a story worth telling, and professional pet photography is a wonderful way to preserve that story for years to come. Macy’s photos not only showcase her beauty and spirit but also highlight the importance of adopting dogs from a shelter like FCDS. These photos aren’t just about capturing cute moments; they’re about celebrating resilience, second chances, and the powerful bond that comes with rescuing a dog.

Why Choose Professional Photos for Your Rescue Dog?

Professional photos of rescue dogs help capture their unique journey and give you lasting memories of the joy they bring to your life. If you’ve adopted a rescue dog or are considering it, a rescue dog photoshoot in Columbus, Ohio can be the perfect way to celebrate them. Whether they’ve had a tough past or are just beginning a new chapter, every adopted dog deserves to be celebrated for who they are today.

If you’re interested in professional photography for your adopted dog, I would be honored to help you capture those precious memories. From shelter dogs to rescue pups, every dog has a story to tell, and every moment is worth remembering. Follow the link below to book your dog’s photo shoot now!

Rare Dog Breed Photography - Ginko

Capturing Rare Dog Breeds: A Hungarian Mudi Photo Shoot in Columbus, Ohio

One of the things I love most about being a professional pet photographer in Columbus, Ohio, is the incredible opportunity to meet and capture stunning images of some of the most unique and rare dog breeds in the world. Recently, I had the absolute pleasure of photographing Ginko, a beautiful Hungarian Mudi! For those unfamiliar with the breed, the Hungarian Mudi is a truly remarkable dog. Originally bred as herding dogs in Hungary, they’re known for their intelligence, agility, and versatility. These energetic dogs are always eager to work and learn, excelling in dog sports like agility, obedience, and herding competitions.

The Mudi’s striking appearance makes them a dream to photograph. Their coats can range from wavy to curly, and they come in a variety of colors, from solid black to unique merle patterns. While they may be relatively small in size, their big personalities (and even bigger voices) make them stand out. As a pet photographer, it’s an absolute joy to capture their playful and energetic spirit through my lens. Mudis are incredibly loyal, loving, and bond closely with their owners, which always shines through in their portraits.

What makes the Hungarian Mudi even more special is how rare they are—only about 450 of these incredible dogs are living in the United States. Each encounter with one feels like a special treat, and believe it or not, I’ve had the privilege of photographing several Mudis here in Columbus! I guess you could say I’m a Mudi magnet! Whether you have a rare breed like the Mudi or a beloved mixed breed, capturing the essence of your pet’s personality is what I strive for in every photo session.

If you’re looking for professional pet photography in Columbus, Ohio, and want stunning images that highlight your dog’s unique beauty, intelligence, and personality, I’d love to help you create memories that last a lifetime.

A Surprise Dog Photoshoot: The Perfect Birthday Gift for Dog Lovers

Two adorable dogs in a field of wildflowers during a surprise pet photo shoot for their Dog Mom’s birthday.

Little Potato and Mr. Waffles were the stars of a recent surprise gift that any dog lover would love to receive! Their dad had the brilliant idea to organize a secret pet photo shoot for his wife’s birthday—a thoughtful and meaningful way to celebrate their love for their furry family members. What better gift for a dog mom than beautifully-captured pet portraits?

We kept everything hush-hush by planning the photo shoot at Homestead Metro Park in Hilliard, Ohio, just a block from their home. It was the perfect cover—a walk in the park was nothing out of the ordinary, so nobody would suspect we were secretly having a photo shoot!

I had never been to this park before, but wow—what a hidden gem for photos! Between the fields of wildflowers, the old train station, covered bridge, Ohio bicentennial barn, and the pond, we found so many unique spots to capture a variety of images. This was one of those places I can’t wait to return to for more dog photography sessions (in fact I loved it so much I brought one of my own dogs here to do a photo shoot for myself!)

Why a Pet Photoshoot is the Ultimate Gift for Dog Lovers

One of the most fulfilling aspects of being a pet photographer in Columbus, Ohio, is creating these lasting memories for families. Dogs bring so much joy and love into our lives, and a surprise pet photoshoot like this is a perfect way to celebrate that. Plus, giving the gift of professional pet photography is a gift that lasts forever. Whether you’re planning a dog birthday photoshoot, a gift for a dog mom, or simply want to surprise a loved one with a heartfelt present, a professional dog photoshoot is a unique and thoughtful way to go.

If you’re looking for hi-resolution digital files, canvas print wall art for your home, or a beautiful album showcasing all the images, there are countless ways to enjoy the photos from your session.

Not sure what type of pet photography session would be best to give as a gift? We can also do a gift certificate for a photo shoot! That way the recipient can decide whether they’d like their photo session to be of just their dogs or they can choose to be in the photos with their dogs as well for a Pet and Family photo shoot.

Columbus End of Life Pet Photography - German Village's Abby the Boston Terrier

End of Life sessions are never easy, but this one definitely tugged at my heart strings--even now as I write this I am fighting the tears welling up in my eyes. I have a very special connection to this beautiful Boston Terrier; 6 years ago Abby was my foster dog through RESCUEDohio!! Abby had a rough start in life. She was failed by her previous humans, and came into the rescue as just skin and bones. She needed a little TLC to get back on her feet, but she had tons of love to give and a sunny disposition, which made it easy for anyone to fall in love with her. I did a little photo shoot with her in my studio to help her get adopted (the purple background photo below is from that shoot), and it worked!

A wonderful family adopted Abby into their home and gave her an amazing life. So when I recently received a message from her adopter saying Abby's health was rapidly failing, I knew I had to get there quickly to make sure we captured a few last memories for her family before she passes. We wanted to make ensure Abby was comfortable during our session, so we did our photos in the back yard of her home in the beautiful German Village area of Columbus.

I couldn’t believe how much more grey fur Abbey had compared to the last time I saw her! She almost looked like a different dog (especially when you compare this photo to the purple one!) But all that frosty grey hair is just a happy reminder of the many beautiful memories she’s made over the years with her loving family.

Abby’s aggressive brain tumor meant that she was no longer able to run and play, so we made sure her photo shoot was nice and relaxing. We let her lounge in the sun in her favorite chair while being fed treats, and watched as she sniffed in the German Village ivy before she decided on the perfect spot to lay down for a nap in the shade of an old oak tree.

Saying goodbye to a faithful friend is never easy—whether you’ve had 5 years together or 15, it still hurts to lose a much-loved pet. I'll be keeping Abby and her family in my thoughts as they make the most of their remaining time together.

And to Abby: my little “Spaghetti Frog”, I'm honored to have been able to help such a wonderful pup on their journey. You can run free knowing you've brought a lot of joy to the people who were lucky enough to have you in their lives.

Choosing the right Professional Pet Photographer in Columbus, Ohio, for your Dog’s End of Life Photo Shoot

When selecting an end of pet photographer it’s important to find someone who is not only highly skilled in pet photography, but also someone who is compassionate and understanding of the very sensitive nature of the session. This session is your time and place to make a few last memories with your pup, as well as process the emotions that come with saying goodbye to your lifelong friend.

As a professional pet photographer, I specialize in creating a personalized, dignified, and respectful experience for you and your dog during this difficult time. My goal is to help you celebrate your pet’s life with images that capture and preserve your dog’s memory forever, as well as provide you one last opportunity to make a few more special memories together they pass.

We all wish our dogs could live forever, but if you’re facing the heartbreaking reality of saying goodbye to your pet, please contact me today to book your session.

Why Your Maternity Photos Should Include Your Dog | Columbus, Ohio Pet Photographer Holly Hildreth

If you’re looking to have maternity photos done, your first thought is probably not, “I should contact a local pet photographer!” While naturally the focus of a traditional maternity photo shoot is solely on the mom-to-be, there’s another important family member who deserves to be part of the experience: your dog! And no other photographer will be able to capture the incredible bond you and your dog share better than a professional pet photographer.

Your dog has been by your side through all the ups, downs, and big moments in your life. If your dog is your ride-of-die, then you will definitely want to include them in your photo shoot to add a unique and meaningful touch—after all, you were a dog mom first!

While many portrait, family, and maternity photographers are skilled in capturing beautiful moments between people, a pet photographer brings unique expertise that can make all the difference when your dog is involved.

Professional animal photographers are familiar with capturing both the human and animal dynamic. They know how to direct and pose you, your partner, and your dog together in ways that look and feel natural. They’re incredibly skilled at timing those shots to capture the split-second moments that a people-photographer may miss. They also know how to get your dog’s attention and how to get them to look in the right direction, whereas a people-only photographer may just be focused in on with how you look, which means your dog ends up being more of an after-thought.

While a traditional people and family photographer may have a whole list of pre-decided poses for you to do during your session (that they likely use for most sessions), going with the flow during your session and letting your dog set the pace allows us to have a much more casual, low-pressure experience, which in turn lets us capture beautiful candid moments. I aim to make your session as stress-free and fun for everyone as possible. I mean, pregnancy is already stressful as it is—there’s no need add more to your plate! So rather than feeling like a formal and serious photo shoot, your session will feel more like you are just enjoying some time together with your furry friend at one of the many beautiful parks in central Ohio.

One of the key reasons to hire a pet photographer for a maternity photo shoot with your dog is their understanding of animal behavior. While your dog might be a perfect angel at home, animals can be unpredictable, especially in new places or around unfamiliar people, sights, smells, and sounds. A pet photographer knows how to work with your dog in order to create a safe and relaxed environment to put them (and you) at ease. They’re skilled at capturing your dog’s unique quirks and personality, whether that’s through playful moments, tender interactions, or loving gazes.

Are you’re looking for some cute dog-themed nursery decor? We can also capture some photos of your dog by themselves, which makes for great canvas prints and wall art which is a creative way to incorporate meaningful decor in your baby’s nursery. Photos of your dog can also make great wall art for other areas of your home, so it’s almost like you are really getting a two-for-one!

Dogs also bring a sense of joy, spontaneity, and fun that can lighten the mood during a photo shoot and help you relax in front of the camera. Whether they’re interacting with you, being cheeky, or simply snuggling up, the natural moments they create let me capture genuine emotions that may be harder to capture with just people alone. These candid shots are client favorites, and they often make the most memorable photos that reflect the authentic dynamics of your family, complete with real smiles and natural expressions.

So, if you’re looking to include your dog in your maternity photo shoot, then a professional dog photographer should be your first stop. Not only will you get gorgeous images of you and your dog together, but your whole experience is sure to be a stress-free, fun-filled outing with lots of laughs and big smiles.

Arrow's Dog and Family Photo Shoot by Midwest Pet Photographer Holly Hildreth

As a professional pet photographer, I always love having sunny weather for a session, But, sometimes Mother Nature has other plans. For Arrow's Family and Pet photo shoot, her plans included torrential downpours! But the silver lining to the gathering storm clouds is that it made for some really dramatic skies and lighting, which allowed us to take incredibly unique family photos. The impressive thunderstorm that provided us with such a great background for our session ended up drenching us on our way back to the parking lot at the end of the shoot. (Still worth it!)

We began our outdoor pet photography session in a shallow creek area at Alexandria, Ohio’s best hidden gem: Lobdell Reserve. The cloudy skies allowed us to get nice, soft lighting while we were photographing by the stream. This is proof that cloudy days can still give you amazing results for your dog and owner portraits!

Arrow loves to wade in water, so this was the perfect session location for him. It’s always so fun to incorporate some of your dog’s favorite activities to really help capture the essence of your dog. Plus you can’t help but smile watching your dog having a blast in their element.

After our playful romp in the creek, we took a little break to go back up on the edge of the woods where we found a nice little bench to take a moment to catch our breath before moving on to another spot.

Next we headed over to a hiking trail through a tall prairie grass field. This spot gave us an unobstructed view of the sky and allowed us to get some shots with the approaching storm in the background. We tried to work quickly to get our portraits done before the storm got too close, but we were really cutting it close. You can even see some raindrops in a few of these photos if you zoom in. While most people think of family portraits they envision a clear blue skies, but I vote for making stormy sky portraits a thing! I grew up in Tornado Alley, and nothing reminds me of home quite like watching a storm build up in the distance. While we don’t get nearly as many storms here in central Ohio, every now and again we do get a pop up storm that puts on a show.

Ohio Puppy Photography - Winnie the Golden

One frequently asked question I get is “Can you photograph young puppies?” Clients worry that their new wiggly ball of fluff won’t sit still long enough to have their picture taken. But here’s the secret: they don’t have to! With puppy sessions we will go with the flow and make sure it’s a fun and stress-free experience for your puppy. They may even blissfully fall asleep at the end of our shoot like 8 week old Winnie the golden retriever puppy here.

Your pup's adorable antics and charm deserve to be preserved forever. Puppies grow up so fast! That's why investing in professional pet photography while your new pet is still a young puppy is a great choice.

Professional pet photographers specialize in capturing the unique personality and quirks of your puppy. They know how to bring out the best in their subjects, whether it's their playful spirit, curious nature, or heart-melting puppy dog eyes.

Puppies can be super wiggly at this age, so keeping them on leash is always a good idea. I will photoshop the leash out after our session so it looks like your sweet little fluff ball was running free, when in reality she is safe and leashed the whole time. That means there’s one less thing to worry about during your session!

Plus, the experience of a professional pet photoshoot is enjoyable for both you and your puppy. It's a chance to bond, create lasting memories, and have fun capturing moments that reflect the joy your puppy brings to your life.

Ohio End of Life Dog Photographer - Lincoln’s Pet and Family session

“Dogs' lives are too short. Their only fault, really.” – -Agnes Sligh Turnbull

I recently had an End of Life session with this adorable doodle named Lincoln, and his sister Maizey. Lincoln was such a gentle and sweet boy, taking treats with the best manners, sitting patiently for photos despite Ohio’s winter temperatures, and happily accepting pets from anyone who would give them. I'm so glad we decided to brave the cold and give Lincoln one last tail-wagging adventure, as he crossed the Rainbow Bridge just a couple hours after our session. Please join me in sending some love to Lincoln's family during this difficult time.
