No-Studio, All-Adventure Sessions

Where Dogs Run Free and Chaos is the Magic

Forget stiff poses and forced smiles.


At Take A Hike Photography, outdoor adventure dog photography is all about letting your dog be exactly who they are—mud, slobber, and all. Whether you're trekking through Park City's trails, splashing in the Bonneville Salt Flats, or rolling through the tall grass of Summit County, every session is built around your dog's natural personality.


Your dog is free to:

  • Sniff
  • Run
  • Play
  • Explore at their own pace



There is no timer ticking away and no pressure to perform. The real moments shine through naturally, creating images that tell the story of your bond and your dog's true personality.

Judgment-Free and Anxiety-Proof Photography

Sessions Designed for Real Dogs and Real Owners

Worried your high-energy pup will run wild or your shy dog will hide behind you?

That's not a problem here. I welcome the crazy, the nervous, the muddy, and the loud. With no time limits, your dog sets the pace while you relax and enjoy the experience.


Every session includes:

  • No-rush scheduling
  • Professional leash removal during editing
  • A safe, judgment-free environment
  • An experience tailored to your dog's personality



From clumsy puppies to wise old snouts, every dog is welcome. This is about capturing your dog's real life—not a perfectly polished version.

How Outdoor Adventure Sessions Work

From Trail to Wall Art: The Process in Plain English

Every session starts by choosing a location that matches your dog's spirit. Whether it's the rugged peaks near Park City, the dramatic light of the Bonneville Salt Flats, or your favorite Utah trail, the setting becomes part of the story.


During the session, I follow your dog's lead, capturing:

  • Action shots
  • Candid moments
  • Genuine expressions
  • The little in-between moments that make your dog unique


Afterward, you'll receive a gallery of hand-edited images with professional leash removal and natural-looking edits.


You'll also have the opportunity to choose from:

  • Digital image collections
  • Metal prints
  • Acrylic wall art
  • Framed canvas artwork



All artwork is hand-delivered throughout Utah, giving you beautiful, lasting pieces that celebrate your dog's biggest adventures.

Because Dogs Deserve to Be Legends

Relax. We Handle the Chaos and the Details.

Take A Hike Photography is for the crazy dog people who want more than just a photo. They want memories that feel as adventurous as their dog's spirit.


With a no-rush, judgment-free approach, I make sure your dog's personality stays at the center of every session while I handle the technical details.


That includes:

  • Professional leash removal
  • Natural color editing
  • Premium wall art that lasts


Sessions are available throughout Utah, including Summit County, Park City, Salt Lake City, and the Bonneville Salt Flats. In-home and studio sessions are also available for dogs who are happiest in familiar surroundings.



Your dog will never "ruin" a session. Here, the chaos is the point—and that's exactly what makes the images unforgettable.

Questions About Outdoor Dog Photography in Utah?

  • What locations can we use for outdoor sessions?

    Sessions can take place anywhere in Utah, including trails, mountains, and open landscapes. Locations are scouted in advance for the best light and conditions.

    Weather is monitored closely and locations are adjusted if needed. Flexibility is built into the process to ensure the best outcome for your session.

    Bringing treats, toys, and anything your dog loves is encouraged. These help keep them engaged and comfortable throughout the session.
