Dorm Studio Pet Photography

Rafa was absolutely wonderful with my puppy! My pup is usually a little shy and hesitant around new people, but Rafa had such a calm, kind presence that she warmed up almost instantly. Rafa took her time to make sure my puppy felt safe and comfortable, and you could tell she genuinely loves working with animals. When it came to the photoshoot, Rafa was so creative, she captured the cutest poses I never would have thought were possible. The final photos turned out absolutely stunning, with an artistic touch that truly highlighted my puppy’s unique personality. Each picture feels like a little work of art, and it was such a joy to see my pups personality shining through so beautifully. The photos are something I’ll treasure forever. I can’t recommend her enough to anyone looking for not only gorgeous pet photography but also a photographer who truly cares about making the experience enjoyable. We will most definitely be returning in the future!

Our sweet dog, Leo, has cancer and we wanted to capture a professional photo while he is still happy and active. I found Rafa at Dorm Studio Photography through a Google search, and contacted her because she specializes in photographing dogs and their humans. Our time with her from the first email to the finished product was exceptional! She met with us to get to know Leo and really listen to our hopes for the session. She brought her backdrop and lights to our home, so Leo wouldn't be stressed by the car ride, and took 300+ pictures of Leo in all his favorite spots and with his favorite people. Finding out that Leo's cancer can't be treated has been really hard. He has been our loving and loyal friend for 12 years. Working with Rafa to capture his personality and these precious memories has been an unexpected joy, and we are so grateful for her incredible talent and heart. Thank you so much!

Dorm Studio Pet Photography exceeded all expectations! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming and calm, which immediately put my pets at ease. Rafa was incredibly patient, kind, and clearly experienced in working with animals of all personalities. The attention to detail was outstanding—every shot captured my pet’s personality so beautifully, with perfect lighting and composition. The final images were absolutely stunning, the kind you want to frame and treasure forever. What really sets Dorm Studio apart is their passion. They don’t just take photos; they create lasting memories that truly showcase the bond between pets and their people. Professional, creative, and genuinely caring—I can’t recommend them highly enough. If you’re looking for photos that go far beyond the ordinary and really capture the essence of your pet, this is the place to go. I’ll definitely be returning!

If I see that Rafa is going to be at an event - I do my best to make it work. She does lovely work and is great with the animals. Excited to see the photos that I got done a few days ago.

I would highly recommend Rafa for professional pet photos! She is very patient and knowledgeable which made my marketing photo shoot a success.

Our experience was top notch and exceeded our expectations through the whole experience provided. From our initial photoshoot and all the way to the delivery of the photos, we felt loved and cared for. We had pictures taken of our first dog after he was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 5. Dorm Studio Photography was very flexible and professional. Would recommend to others looking for a true dog photo session!

Rafa took wonderful photos of our dog, Shadow, and made the whole process incredibly easy! We came from Minot to use her studio, and it was definitely worth the trip! If you love your pup, it's worth it to get your photos here at Dorm!
