Hey, I’m Aaron May, the guy behind the camera at The Pet Portrait Club. Here’s the deal: I’ve spent years perfecting my craft as a professional photographer and basically my whole life loving dogs. So, I thought, why not combine the two? My mission is simple—to celebrate your pet exactly as they are, in all their goofy, soulful, zoomie-filled glory.

When you book with me, it’s not just a photoshoot. It’s an experience. Think of it like your dog’s personal red carpet moment—except way more fun and without the awkward small talk. This isn’t about stiff poses or fake smiles (do dogs even do fake smiles?). It’s about capturing what makes your pet them—the quirks, the energy, the moments that make you say, “Yep, that’s my dog.”

My sessions are off-leash, laid-back, and totally tailored to your pet. Your dog gets to just be themselves, and I get to work my magic. The result? Timeless portraits that feel like them, not some generic idea of what a dog photo should be.

Oh, and it’s not just me behind this operation. My two dogs, Cal and Sugar, are the real heart of The Pet Portrait Club. Cal’s my best boy—the entire reason I got into photography in the first place. I started out taking portraits of him on my phone, trying to capture everything that made him who he is. And Sugar? She’s the sweetest and most loving dog I’ve ever had. She’s taught Cal and me how to be kind and brought this much-needed feminine energy into the house that balances us out. These two are my best friends, my greatest responsibility, and my constant inspiration.

Based in West Virginia, I’ve made it my mission to turn what I love into something you’ll love, too. Pets are family, plain and simple, and every session I do is filled with humor, care, and a deep understanding of how much these animals mean to you.

So, let’s do this. Let’s capture the story of your dog in a way that makes you laugh, cry (the good kind), and say, “Wow, that’s them.” Ready? Let’s make something unforgettable together.
