Professional Portraits, Not Snapshots
Jim Harris has photographed professionally since 1984.
Sessions are created in a custom mobile studio using professional lighting and equipment. This provides a quieter, more controlled environment with fewer distractions for pets.
The goal is to create finished portraits worthy of printing, framing, and displaying for years to come.
Review Your Proofs Immediately
One of the unique parts of the Harris Pet Photos experience is the ability to review your proofs immediately, during and after the photo session.
Portraits are displayed on a 55-inch 4K monitor, allowing you to view every image in beautiful detail before making a purchase. We can also preview each portrait in different sizes, such as 11×14, 16×20, or 20×24, so you can visualize how the finished enlargement will look and choose the size that best fits your space.
This helps clients compare portraits, select favorites, and confidently choose the images they love most.
High Quality Printing & Professional Editing
Professional editing is included with every purchased portrait.
Jim Harris uses Adobe Photoshop, digital darkroom software, and other professional editing programs to carefully finish each selected image.
Mark Harris also assists with select editing projects when needed and is an Adobe Certified Associate in Photoshop CS5 and CS6.
Portraits are produced using professional-grade printing equipment and high-quality materials for strong color, detail, and long-lasting durability.
Each finished portrait is prepared with care so it can be displayed, framed, gifted, and enjoyed for years to come.
Raw and/or unedited files are available upon request.
Turnaround & Delivery
After your order is placed, selected portraits are professionally edited and prepared for the products you choose.
Standard prints, including 8×10 and smaller sizes, are usually completed within 1–3 days and shipped by USPS.
Large wall portraits and canvases usually have a two-week turnaround and are typically shipped by UPS.
Turnaround times may vary depending on product type, order size, and seasonal demand.
No Sales Pressure • No Obligation
We don't charge a sitting fee because we believe you should see the results before making any purchasing decisions.
We're confident in what we do, but animals can be unpredictable — especially when photographing multiple pets of different breeds, sizes, and personalities.
By viewing your proofs first, you can decide whether there is something you truly love and want to own. There is absolutely no obligation to purchase anything.
Our goal is simple: to create beautiful portraits that capture your pet's personality and leave you excited to take them home. If we do our job well, we believe you'll find something you love.
