Where Pets Become Art
At Vera Photography, your pet isn’t just a subject — they’re family. They’re your shadow, your joy, your gentle comfort at the end of a long day. I capture those quiet glances, playful sparks, and soulful expressions that show exactly who they are — and just how much they mean to you. I’m Vera — a fine art pet photographer based in Ottawa and the heart behind Vera Photography. What began as a love for animals and a fascination with light has grown into a space where your pets are seen, celebrated, and forever remembered.
Pets fill our lives with love!
Studio Sessions
Our studio sessions are all about simplicity, light, and the soulful presence of your pet. With a clean, controlled environment, I use soft natural tones and gentle lighting to highlight every whisker, expression, and detail.
This is perfect for clients who love classic fine art portraits or have pets who feel more at ease indoors. The studio allows us to take our time, keep things calm, and capture a polished, artistic look — one that will look beautiful framed on your wall.
Outdoor Sessions
Does your dog come alive at the sound of rustling leaves or the smell of fresh grass? Outdoor sessions are perfect for pets who love to explore and be themselves in nature.
Whether we wander through a blooming field, walk by the river, or play in a forest, these sessions are relaxed and candid — full of movement, light, and connection. Every season offers something beautiful, from golden fall colours to spring wildflowers and summer sunsets.
Pet & Family Sessions
The bond between you and your pet is one of a kind — and capturing it with the people who matter most makes it even more meaningful. Pet & family sessions are designed to celebrate the full circle of love in your home.
These can take place in the studio or outdoors, depending on your style. I guide you gently through natural interactions, hugs, play, and quiet moments, so nothing feels forced — just real, connected, and full of heart.
