Hi, I'm Ina.
I'm a pet photographer, dog mum to three Havanese, and an ice cream connoisseur. I fell in love with pet photography thanks to my boy Mac, who is no longer here with me. He's the reason I started this and he is my why. He is my heart dog, my soul dog.
I understand just how deeply you cherish your pet and the unique bond you share. That's why it's so important to capture the joy, love, and moments of connection that make your relationship special — so you can hold onto them forever.
At Ina J Photography, I'm here to offer you more than just a photography session. I'm here to guide you through a truly bespoke experience, from start to finish, that celebrates your pet and your bond. Together, we'll create beautiful, expressive images and timeless artwork that you'll cherish for many years.
What Makes This Different
Pet-Led Sessions
Your pet sets the pace. Sniffs, breaks, movement. No forcing, no unrealistic expectations. Nothing is rushed or forced.
Expertise With All Personalities
Anxious? Reactive? A bit shy with strangers? I've worked with dogs who've never warmed up to anyone outside their family and still captured something beautiful.
Guided Every Step
From the consultation to ordering and designing your artwork, you'll know exactly what to expect. No surprises, no pressure.

What Clients Say
"I cannot recommend Ina enough. She was so wonderful and patient with our senior doggo and so compassionate knowing that we were in the palliative stage for her. She definitely went the extra mile to make sure we had some beautiful memories of our special girl."
— Carly
"Ina is so passionate about her craft, and it shows through how she interacts with her clients and their fur-kids; the end result speaks for itself. She was so patient with my girl and yet went above and beyond to capture her personality and the bond between us."
— Krystal
"A true professional, Ina was patient and knowledgeable all throughout our shoot and I've been rewarded with the most amazing photos because of it! Highly recommend if you're looking for outdoor photos of your pups!!"
