Meet Your New Favorite Pet Photographer
Hi, I’m Lauren, a Minnesota pet photographer dedicated to capturing the bond between you and your pets. Our pets are cherished family members, and my mission is to capture those moments and emotions that reflect how truly special they are, creating images you’ll treasure for a lifetime.
What is... Scruff Life?
I started Scruff Life Photography in 2021, inspired by my love for our four-legged companions. The name "Scruff Life" is a nod to my dog Mishka, whose scruffy charm is her defining feature and a reminder of the unique personalities that make each pet so special. Whether it’s their boundless enthusiasm or those quiet, knowing glances, I’m here to document the essence of your pet and the relationship you share.
I offer a range of photography experiences—traditional pet photography, dog sports photography, pet business branding, photography for non-profits, and pet-friendly lodging photography—so you can choose the style that fits you and your pet best. My goal is to create timeless images that go beyond a simple snapshot. I’m here to capture the big moments and the subtle exchanges, those glances and gestures that often go unnoticed in the bustle of daily life. The quiet moments where you seem to understand each other completely—these are the memories I want you to look back on and feel deeply.
A Bit About Me
When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me out on a hike with one of my three dogs—Lana, Mishka, and Conway—exploring Minnesota’s beautiful landscapes. I also love cozying up in a local coffee shop with a good book or spending time editing photos with my dogs by my side.
I can’t wait to meet you and your pets and capture the special bond you share. Let's create memories that celebrate the joy, love, and companionship that make our lives with animals so meaningful!
We might be a great fit if...
You love watching
sunrises and sunsets.
You love road trips
and visiting new places.
