Need a Different Size?
The sizes listed above are the most popular — but every home is different. If you have a specific wall, space, or vision in mind, custom sizing is absolutely available.
Whether you need something larger for a grand entryway, a narrow format for a hallway, or a specific dimension to fit an existing frame — we can accommodate it. Just mention it during your planning consult.
Custom frame profiles, finishes, and matting options are available beyond the standard offerings. If you have a specific aesthetic in mind — a thicker float frame, a natural wood finish, a particular mat color — we'll make it work.
Custom sizes and framing are priced based on your specific requirements and quoted at the Portrait Reveal once you've seen your images. There's no obligation — if you love a shot and want it larger, just ask and we'll work it out together.
How It Works
We plan the look, backdrop, and what you want your final portraits to feel like.
No perfect behavior required. I photograph personality first — the "good" moments happen naturally.
You'll see my curated Top 20 fully edited portraits, plus a watermarked proof gallery. In-person or online.
Wall art, albums, or the full digital collection — you choose what you love after you've seen the images.

My dog won't sit still.
Kevin Sarasom
I'm Kevin Sarasom — and if you want the best dog portrait experience in the world, you're in the right place. This isn't "pet photography." It's a personal, high-touch session built around connection: with your dog, with you, and with the room.
I've photographed 15,000+ dogs for private clients across Los Angeles, New York City, and London — including high-profile families and public figures who value discretion, calm energy, and results that feel undeniable. The common thread? They want the portrait to feel like their dog — not a generic "cute photo."
My specialty is reading a dog in minutes: what motivates them, what overwhelms them, and how to bring out the exact expression you recognize at home. Owners feel it too — I'm known for walking into a space, matching the energy, and getting everyone comfortable fast.
Every session is different. Some dogs are bold and theatrical. Some need fifteen minutes of pretending the camera doesn't exist. Either way, we get there — and the portraits prove it.
A calm, guided experience that produces a finished portrait designed for your home — lighting, scale, and mood chosen to read as a permanent piece of artwork, not just "content."
The magic is in the in-between moments: the look they give you, the tiny attitude shift, the "that's them" expression. We capture dramatic museum-style portraits and playful range — because your dog is both.
You'll leave with a portrait that feels like your dog — refined when you want it, playful when it shows up — and finished as artwork you'll still want on your wall years from now.
Based in LA, New York, and London — with occasional pop-ups. Reach out to check availability in your city or join the waitlist.
