ELISABETH MILLAY YOUNG
I photograph pets for people who see them as family. With over 20 years of photography experience and a lifelong love of animals, I've created a studio space in a peaceful barn hayloft where animals feel comfortable and seen.
The time spent with our companions is meaningful and often too short. I capture soulful, elegant portraits of pets and turn them into beautiful printed art pieces that will be treasured for years to come.
I live in Rolling Hills Estates with my husband, two daughters, three cats, and a rotating cast of foster dogs. My passion for animals has me donating sessions to local rescues, helping their overlooked dogs find forever homes.
I work with all different temperaments and training levels. My approach involves patience, flexibility, and a deep understanding of body language. I find out what motivates your pet and what helps to bring out their unique personality.
This is a fun, relaxed experience. Your pet gets lots of treats, love, and attention from me and you!
YES, YOUR DOG CAN DO THIS!

First step is connecting and discussing a session. I want to learn all about your pet and the unique qualities you'd like me to capture. You'll let me know if you'd like a session at my barn hayloft studio or at an outdoor location in the South Bay. We will discuss the options for printing the portraits and what might suit you best. I offer fine art prints, specialty canvas, albums, and large framed statement pieces. If you decide this is a great fit, we will set a date and make it official!
You and your fluffy friend will join me at my home studio in Rolling Hills Estates. In some cases we may choose another location for our session.
Your pet will have a special session with lots of love and attention.
Afterwards, I'll select the very best images and prepare them for the big reveal.
We'll preview the images together and you'll select the portraits you'd like printed and any add-ons. Add-on options include albums, gifts, and digital file collections.
Your selected images will be retouched to perfection. Production will begin on your artwork and soon you'll have a beautiful printed piece for your home.
