Shutter Hound Pet Photography - Austin, TX

Verified Member since Jun 2018 Verified checkmark

Hello! I'm Kirsten, your go-to pet photographer based in vibrant Austin, TX. With a passion for capturing the essence of your furry, feathered, or even scaly family members, I specialize in creating timeless memories that you'll treasure forever. Since launching my pet photography services in September 2020, I've had the pleasure of working with a diverse range of animals, including alpacas, birds, cats, dogs, and more. My insured services ensure peace of mind while I focus on showcasing the unique personality of your beloved pet in a relaxed, love-filled setting.

In every session, my aim is to make the experience enjoyable for both you and your pet. Whether your companion is a little camera-shy or a natural in front of the lens, I use toys, treats, and a dash of creativity—yes, even if it means crawling on the ground—to capture the perfect shot. Once our session concludes, you'll receive a beautifully curated gallery of images that will serve as lasting reminders of your pet's charm and spirit. I'll also assist you in selecting the ideal products to display your favorite shots, making it easier than ever to share your pet's joy with friends and family.

If you're ready to capture those precious moments and cherish them for a lifetime, I'm excited to work with you. Whether you’re in need of a studio or a mobile session, I'm flexible and ready to meet your needs. Please remember, I require a week's notice for any cancellations. So why wait? Ready to get started? Book me through Petworks today!
