Solo Portrait: Girl and her Beloved Dog

Golden hour at Colorado Bridge in Pasadena was the perfect setting for this sweet session with [K] and her beloved dog, Molly. Molly was a little shy when we first met, so instead of jumping right into photos, I took some time to get to know her. A few treats, some playtime, and lots of patience later, she started to warm up to me. Once I saw her relax and become more comfortable, we knew it was time to start capturing some photos.

Pet photography is so much fun because you never quite know what you’re going to get! Every pet has their own personality, and I love letting them be themselves during a session. Whether your dog is playful and full of energy or a little more shy like Molly, my goal is to capture those genuine moments and the special bond between you and your best friend. These are the memories you’ll want to hold onto for years to come. ♡

xoxo,
Hiromi

WELCOME

I call myself a ‘people’ photographer, specializing in capturing the personalities of people through family, newborn and event photography. I’m originally German-Japanese and was raised embracing both cultures. I was raised in Japan and in many parts of Europe, until I finally settled in Los Angeles to call it my permanent home. My love for photography started at an early age. A fun hobby eventually turned in to a passion when I found joy in taking candid photos of my friends. Naturally, my love for photography turned in to a lifestyle and I was asked to photograph people’s milestones and celebrations. And so, my photography business was born in 2010.
