Playful Session at Ohio Street Beach with Dorina & Cora

One of my favorite recent sessions highlighted how the absolute best part of my job as Chicago pet photographer is creating and documenting sessions where all expectations align - allowing your dog to be so authentically themselves.

The beauty of adventure sessions is simple: we do something your dog loves and capture the bond you share in making them happy. If you’re anything like me (and I’m pretty sure you are), you know there’s nothing better than seeing your dog light up with joy — brave, carefree, and living fully in the moment.

To give you a glimpse of what this looks like, here’s a recent adventure session with Dorina and her dog, Cora, at Ohio Street Beach in Chicago. Cora LOVES nothing more than playing fetch by the water, so this location was the perfect spot to capture her energy and their bond on a carefree Saturday morning. To make the session even more special, we started at the park right outside their front door and then headed to the the beach they visit regularly, holding sentimental value for the spaces they enjoy together. Plus the Chicago skyline always makes for a stunning backdrop and love to use it in portraits where the dog’s comfort and experience is always the priority.

Ready to plan your own adventure session? Whether your dog loves fetch at the beach, walks in a stunning park or forest preserve, or simply cuddling at home with neighborhood adventures, we’ll design a session that captures their happiest moments.
