About Great Dane Photo Co

We’re just here for the photos.

Your fast-action dog sports event photographers

Great Dane Photo Co made our name covering large, national-level events… and we’ve been doing it since 2001. 

Most pet photographers get into the business to take portraits but at Great Dane Photo Co we’ve always specialized in big events, fast moving dogs, and capturing the unique relationships between handlers and their sport dogs.

We have team of experienced photographers who work together to cover up to 6 rings at once.

Competitors can shop using our custom sales software, where we group all images by dog name for convenience… No more searching through multiple albums just trying to find their own dogs.

We offer packages both on-site and after the event via our website and keep photos available for sale for a full year after the event.

My team and I are dedicated to doing our very best for every dog, not just the ones that win ribbons.

Dog sports have become a big deal — even making their way to ESPN. And where there are dog sports, you’ll find photographers like me.

A perfect combo for those lightning-fast dogs on the agility course.

I’ve spent nearly 25 years capturing those exciting moments, from agility and obedience to rally and conformation. I’ve served as the official photographer for some of the top agility events in the U.S., such as the AKC National Agility Championships, USDAA Cynosport World Games, and many more.

For me, photography isn’t about portraits. I’m hooked on the thrill of capturing connection, performance, authenticity, and play—at high speeds.

Whether it’s a dog flying over an obstacle or that special bond between a handler and their dog, I love freezing those split-second moments that tell a story.

At the heart of my work, I believe everyone deserves to feel seen, safe, and like they belong—no matter who they are, where they come from, or what their abilities are.

For every dog.

Being around a bunch of people and dogs in their element, is just the best. We love dog sports because it allows us all to connect, be ourselves and play.

REALNESS. Connection. performance & PLAY.
