I’m not just a girl with a camera who loves to take pictures of animals!

I mean, I am, let’s be real. But I’ve also poured a whole lot of myself into building a studio and a process in which you and your pet can both be comfortable. You’ll both be a little spoiled by the time we’re all done. From playful puppies to majestic felines, I absolutely LOVE capturing timeless portraits of animals and want you to have physical printed pieces of artwork that will keep you smiling for years to come.

My clients

• obsess about their pets and treat them like family. Because they are!
• make their plans around their pet’s feeding and potty schedule.
• take their pets with them to many places they go.
• treat their pets and themselves to the very best.
• would prefer someone else do the work for them rather than DIY.
• want timeless keepsakes to celebrate their best friend.
• prefer to communicate by email or text.

But what about the photographer?

• That weird lady that wants to run across the street just to meet your pet? Yeah, that’s me.
• I really do love all the animals, but cats are my favorites–just don’t tell my dogs, m’kay?
• Self care sometimes means being alone in a darkened theatre in the middle of the week with an enormous bag of heavily buttered popcorn.
• Over 200 dogs, 100 cats, and a whopping ten non-standard pets have been in front of my lens with a 99.99% success rate. You will be hard pressed to find a more experienced pet photographer in Oklahoma.
• If you cry, I will totally cry with you. Also, I’m a hugger. Consider yourself warned.
• I try really hard to keep up with my fitness. I mean… have you SEEN what kind of contortions pet photographers sometimes have to get into?
• All my photography education time and money goes into PET photography specifically. As a result, you will rarely see humans in my portraits.

Pets are an important and valued part of our family. In fact we have separate rooms for each species to keep them all alive, as not everybody gets along.

Giving back

Some of my photography time is spent with Oklahoma City Animal Welfare, and local foster-based rescues including All Paws Rescue, Misfits Mutts & Meows, and Safe Haven Animal Rescue creating portraits of animals eligible for adoption. It is very rewarding to have a direct impact on their adoption!

If you manage or coordinate an animal rescue organization in the Oklahoma City area and are interested in working with OKKat Photography to create portraits of animals eligible for adoption, or to explore fundraising opportunities, reach out to kathy@okkatphoto.com. I would be happy to discuss your specific needs and goals and to see how OKKat Photography can support your organization’s efforts to find loving homes for animals in need. Professional pet portrait photography can be a powerful tool for animal rescue organizations, as it can help to showcase the unique personalities and characteristics of the animals available for adoption and to help them stand out to potential adopters.
