Kids, dogs and the magic between them

tails of adventure dogs ... and the kids who love them

Celebrate the unbreakable bonds, muddy paws and childhood memories that last a lifetime

There’s something extraordinary about the bond between a kid and their dog — an unspoken language of love, adventure and lifelong friendship. This project is all about celebrating that magic and giving back to the animals who need it most.

Why get involved?

📖 Your child and their dog in a stunning coffee-table book. Every session includes a featured photo in a beautifully designed book — a keepsake that preserves this incredible stage of their lives forever.

🐾 A session that gives back. Your $100 session fee doesn’t go to me. It goes entirely to one of two amazing animal nonprofits: Spokanimal in Spokane and Companions Animal Center in Hayden, Idaho. That means your child’s best friend helps other animals find their own forever homes.

🐶 Capture their story before childhood races ahead. One day, your little one will be all grown up but these photos will hold onto the laughter, the muddy paws, the tail wags, and the moments that matter most.

This is more than a photo session — it’s a love story, a legacy and a way to make a difference.

How it works

Inspired by the boundless love between kids and their dogs, dog photographer Angela Schneider is creating a one-of-a-kind photography project that celebrates these unbreakable childhood bonds.

This is a chance to tell your child’s story — the scraped knees, the belly laughs, the quiet moments of love and loyalty — before time races ahead.

Each session is more than just a photo op. It’s a moment in your child’s life that will live on forever in a stunning, full-color coffee-table book.

The Full Family Experience

Go beyond the quick session and create something truly special for your whole family. Upgrade to a full custom family session where your dog remains the star of the show, but the entire pack gets in on the fun.

We’ll choose a meaningful location and spend more time together to create more magic. This session gives us the space to slow down, let the moments unfold naturally, and create images that tell your family’s story in the most authentic way.

Your $300 session fee includes a $100 donation to the animal nonprofit of your choice: Spokanimal or Companions Animal Center.
