Snoot.
Boop.
Breathe.
Repeat.

Some days just suck. Our fur children make it better.

We’re photographing California fur children who make sucky days less sucky for our new gallery exhibition:

SNOOT. BOOP. BREATHE. REPEAT
A Shershow Studios Exhibition

Your Story is Worth Sharing

At the completion of our project, your fur child story and artwork will be featured in a public gallery exhibition at Shershow Studios. Lets fill the walls with all the fun, love and zany dramah these creatures bring to the world!

After the event, take your gallery piece home to enjoy!

How much does it cost to be featured?

While exhibition spots remain, we’re offering this fabulously fun photography experience for only $790.
The total value is over $2,000!

Why your fur child matters

Some days are terrible, horrible, no good and very bad. The emails, the news, the topsy turvy world. And then there’s your fur child.

Celebrating your very existence.

No platitudes, no fixing, no expectations. Just a reminder that not everything is complicated.

Turns out, the cure for a no good, very bad, sucky day isn’t a grand solution.

It’s already sitting next to you.

 
Ellen. Is. AMAZING!!! Seriously, even my crazy 60 pound Staffie, who has severe fear-aggression issues towards strangers LOVED her from the beginning! She will take all the time needed to get “the” right shot! She’s also very creative and did what she needed to get it perfect... I’m so glad I met her and got to experience her work, you will NOT be disappointed.

If you are looking for a photographer who is literally a dog-whisperer...who instinctively knows how to bring out your dog’s unique personality in each photo taken. Who not just “takes photos,” but inspires and creates. Who is professional, caring, compassionate, fun-loving, and dares to be creative and think outside the box...hands down, work with Ellen Shershow. You will be beyond amazed!

Ellen is a pure joy to work with. Ellen has some sort of innate talent to establish a friendly rapport with your dog & put him/her at ease almost immediately. Ellen has a lot of tricks up her sleeve to bring out the playful, the regal, the goofy, the whatever personality of your dog in a portrait, & we were simply amazed at how gorgeous her final photos were.

The Photographer: Ellen Shershow

I believe that dogs are the world's greatest creatures. They are slobbery and kooky and soulful and precious. When I create a portrait of your dog, I’m not just taking a picture; I’m creating an art piece that brings out the personality of your fur child. You will walk away with several pieces of fine art that will last a lifetime.

Ellen Shershow is an award-winning pet photographed based in Oakland California. She donates over 30 hours every month to photographing dogs at Muttville senior dog rescue and works with the Pet Food Express My Mutt program, providing valuable funds to Bay Area pet shelters and rescues.
