Pet Portraits and Urban Art

Syracuse Urban area

Syracuse is a wonderful area. Not only is it close to the beautiful waterfalls and gorges, it also has a beautiful urban area.

Urban Areas

There are multiple areas with lots of photo interest for your session. Franklin square has fountains and brick walls. In the springtime the Cherry blossoms and magnolia trees make a beautiful backdrop.

Urban Art

Syracuse has multiple places that have beautifully painted urban walls. I recently had a session downtown by one of these walls. We enjoyed having the dogs pose in the painted scenes and then also just sitting with the colorful walls fading out beyond them. We even played with a composite of Raylin “sitting” on the painted swing.

it’s fun to have a walking tour of an area of downtown while you and your dog enjoy each others company while I capture the magic.

It’s an International circle!

    Wow, I had no idea that Syracuse had such great urban art, those murals are fantastic! They’ll really pop when there’s snow on the ground too!

    Raylin in the swing is EVERYTHING!! It’s nice to have the murals and a splash of color in your portraits.
