Pets are part of our family. Unfortunately, our time with them is often too short. Professional photos help keep them close to you forever.

Photographer, horsewoman, and animal lover

Photography can be both empowering and fun. My role is to capture and elevate what is special about you and your loved ones, including the four-legged kind. I like to say there’s beauty within, and without. That beauty comes through in my work. You will see it too.

You will be provided with a low-stress, full-service experience. Photo sessions are often tailored to meet your needs. As a former technology professional and program manager, I know how important communication and the ability to get things done are. My clients appreciate this and so will you.

Let’s connect and create stunning visual images that you will be proud to display.

“The full depth of Ellen’s magic revealed itself when my pictures arrived. They were breathtaking, and stunning — beyond exceptional! Each one magnifies the character of my horses and dogs as I know them. Ellen has a unique talent for seeing and highlighting animal personalities and the relationships we have with them — it was an honor to be in front of her lens!”

Lisa Kelly Simmons, President, United States Lipizzan Federation
