WHO’S THE DOG PHOTOG

Bre McGee, a documentary brand photographer who adores dogs embarked on her journey, into capturing pup portraits with a twist. The story began when her own puppy, Fraser required a heart surgery at 4 months old. In response Bre took action by organizing a fundraiser featuring pup portraits. This initiative not saved Frasers life. Also captured the affection of dog enthusiasts in Minneapolis. The 10 minute sessions quickly sold out within a week!

Moved by the love and encouragement she received Bre discovered her passion. Four months after Frasers surgery she introduced The Dog Photog to the world.

Bres photography goes beyond pictures—it reflects each dogs essence. Her portraits are lively occasionally dramatic and always brimming with character as they capture moments that bring joy to both wagging tails and melting hearts.

When she isn't, behind the lens Bre enjoys exploring nature with her husband and their dogs—Fraser and Sequoia a Lab/Bully mix.

At The Dog Photog, it's all about creating memorable, stress-free experiences for both pups of all ages and their humans. So whether you're looking to capture your furry friend's best side or simply celebrate the joy they bring to your life, Bre is ready to make memories that last fur-ever.

“If you are on the fence if you should book…

DO IT!!

Bre is a true animal lover + beyond talented! I brought my pugs for senior portraits and was blown away how Bre captured their souls and spirits in the pictures. It was crazy hard to narrow done which ones to have edited, but I know I will cherish them forever.

I cannot recommend The Dog Photog enough!”
