About two weeks after your session we can meet to view the amazing portraits of your pup and select the image you'd like to have printed as a high-gloss metal keychain

 

You will also have the opportunity to purchase other gorgeous, custom artwork of your pet at this appointment. 10% of all artwork orders will also be donated to the Stark County Humane Society.

Thank you, pawsome sponsors!

Adrianne Scalera Scalera Design Studio

About the Photographer: Adrianne Scalera

I specialize in photographing the ones you love in a custom session. My process  simplifies the design and planning to help busy moms celebrate their family by creating big beautiful wall art designed for your space.

Life is busy enough without having to sift through hundreds of digital images to find the best ones to print and frame. In fact, in the past, I found that most of my clients (myself included) weren’t printing images from photography sessions at all!

With my background in interior design, it became clear to me that I needed to help busy moms decorate their worlds with highly personal artwork. Heirloom quality that is one-of-a-kind and impactful to all who see it, especially your family.

Last year, with the help of our community, my small business raised & donated over $1200 to the Stark County Humane Society! I'm looking forward to raising even more in 2024!

THE CUTEST CANINE OF THE STARK COUNTY 2023!

Oliver was a star client, so sweet and gentle. This Labradoodle gentleman was a ⁠pleasure to photograph as part of this fun competition.
