Our Story
Ruth’s Pawtography Studio is a pet photography business located in Hastings, Nebraska, specializing in animal photography that captures the unique personalities of dogs, cats, and pocket pets. With a focus on pet portraits, I utilize natural light and a patient, compassionate approach to create heartwarming images that celebrate the bond between pets and their people.
Driven by a special passion for rescue animals, I work closely with local shelters to help overlooked pets shine in photos, enhancing their chances of finding their furever homes. Whether it's a cozy cat nap, a joyful dog zoomie, or a curious little critter, Ruth’s Pawtography Studio excels in dog photography and will bring out the soul in every shot.
