Meet Jana

A Nurse’s Heart, a Photographer’s Eye, and a Love for the Maine Outdoors.

I’ve spent my career in nursing, a profession that taught me the true value of patience, empathy, and being deeply present in the moment. Today, I bring that same "nurse’s touch" to my photography.

I know that the best portraits don't come from forcing a pet to sit still in a studio, they come from letting them be exactly who they are. Whether your companion is a high-energy explorer, a shy soul, or a senior moving at a slower pace, I have the patience to wait for that perfect, honest moment. I don't just want to take a picture; I want to capture the spirit that makes your pet family.

Based here in Rockport, I’m most at home where the pavement ends. When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll usually find me scouting new trails or exploring the Midcoast's rocky coastline with my dachshund, Bear. I’m a firm believer that pets are at their happiest with the wind in their fur and a little dirt on their paws, whether that’s on a Maine beach or a mountain trail in your neck of the woods. I love to travel, and I’m always ready to meet you and your companion wherever your heart takes us.
