When it comes to planning your dog’s portrait session, the location sets the stage for their star moment! Whether your pup is a beach bum, a mountain explorer, or a city slicker, us Oregonians are spoiled with choices when it comes to stunning backdrops around here. As an adventurous dog photographer who specializes in turning your furry friend into fine art, I’m here to help you pick the perfect spot for your pup’s big debut. So, leash up and let’s talk locations!


A few questions to think about first:

-         Is there a special location you and your puppers visit?

-         What do you want to do with the portraits?

-         How do want to display them in your home? If you are thinking of wall art, take a look at your décor in your home. Also, an album can tell a fun story of your day together.

-         What photo location would fit in with your décor best.

The answer to these questions all factor into where the best location is for your pup’s portrait session.

 

1.The Beach – For Sandy Toes and Salty Noses - Newport Beaches

If your dog lights up when they see waves and can’t resist a good splash, the beach might just be their perfect place—and an amazing location for dreamy, windswept portraits. Think golden hour light, paw prints in the sand, and ears flopping in the sea breeze. Whether your pup is a swimmer or prefers digging like a furry excavator, beach sessions are full of playful, energetic moments that turn into stunning wall-worthy art. From Florence to Lincoln City, the beach options are endless.

2. The Trails – Nature’s Playground - Corvallis, Lebanon

Got a sniff-happy trailblazer on your hands? Our local hiking trails around Corvallis and Lebanon, are full of magical nooks: mossy trees, wildflowers, tall grasses, and sun-dappled paths that make your pup look like they’ve wandered right into a fairy tale. These spots are perfect for laid-back pups who love to explore and give off “adventurous spirit” vibes. Plus, it’s a great way for both of you to sneak in some fun before the portraits begin—think of it as a doggy warm-up!

3. The Mountains – For the Majestic and Mighty - Mountain lakes

If your dog is the king or queen of the great outdoors, the mountains of Central Oregon offer epic views and that “Top of the World” feeling. Dramatic landscapes and crisp mountain lakes make for bold, breathtaking portraits. This setting works beautifully for dogs who enjoy a bit of elevation and don’t mind a little breeze in their fur. We’ll capture your pup in all their glory, perched like the noble explorer they are.

4. The City – Street Style with a Tail-Wag Twist

Does your dog love the hustle, the bustle, and the curious smells of the city? Urban sessions bring personality and style! From cool alleyways and brick walls to urban architecture, the city adds a modern, stylish twist to your pet’s portraits. It’s a great fit for dogs who are confident and curious—and it results in artwork that’s bold, fun, and full of character.


Wherever we go, the goal is the same: to create timeless, beautiful artwork that tells your dog’s story and makes your heart swoon. I’ll help you choose the perfect spot based on your dog’s personality, your home décor style, and the kind of art you dream of hanging on your walls. Ready to plan your dog’s tail-wagging adventure?
