Hi I'm Julie, I'm the owner and main photographer here at Paws & Claws Studio. I want to welcome you to our website. Take a look around, and if you have any questions at all feel free to contact me via e-mail or by a phone call. Let me tell you a little about myself and how I came up with the creative idea of Pet Photography. My entire life I have had a passion for photography and pets. I am always looking for new ideas and ways to capture a creative image. My business Paws and Claws Studio combines the love of both photography and pets into one. Every photo that I capture is analyzed and edited to make a sharp and beautiful photograph for you.
I can bring out the personality within your pet through my pictures for loving memories for you to enjoy for years to come.
