Kimberly Kingen is a professional pet portrait photographer whose work centers on celebrating the connection between dogs and the people who love them. What began as a passion for photography evolved into a focused career creating thoughtful, emotionally driven portraits that honor the personalities of each dog and the bond they share with their humans.

Through years of working closely with animals, Kimberly has developed a calm, intuitive approach that helps dogs feel comfortable and free to be themselves during a session. Her work blends natural moments with gently guided direction, allowing genuine connection to unfold in front of the camera. The result is imagery that feels authentic, expressive, and timeless.

Kimberly specializes in creating custom portrait experiences for private clients who want meaningful artwork of their dogs and the life they share together. She also collaborates with pet-centered brands and businesses to create compelling commercial imagery.

Her work is deeply influenced by the belief that dogs are family. In addition to client work, Kimberly regularly gives back through donated sessions to rescues and local non-profits, as well giving back to a rotating list of causes close to my heart.

Kimberly’s goal is simple: to help people celebrate the dogs who shape our lives and make our hearts full.
