“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

“OMG! Dani and Yagil not only created a beautiful calm experience when they photographed my dogs and me but when the photos were done… they were the most beautiful photos I had ever seen! And everyone I show them to agrees. I’ll remember this experience and have these gorgeous photographs forever … close to my heart…on my wall! I highly recommend their services.”

Chris
“One of the happiest moments and most joyous was bringing in my two chihuahuas — Minnie and Snoopy — for an afternoon of posing with these wonderful photographers who actually got my babies to hold still and smile…sort of. Bedecked in feathers and jewels, I used the pictures for my holiday cards and so adorable were they that the famous New York Social Diary website included them among their favorites of the year. Additionally, I have framed pictures of my beloved pets on my bedside table and I can only promise you it is so worth booking an appointment with them.

“Dani and Yagil are the best! I learned about them from the Dog Bar in Miami Beach and didn’t have great hopes, but decided to sign up for a free photo session with my little puppy, Tizo. They were so good with her and her photos were beautiful. I never dreamed they would also be taking photos of me as well, but they did and they were equally wonderful. I was so happy and used one of them on my Christmas card. This year, I came again with not only my little dog, but also my 3 grandchildren. I was elated when those photos also came up perfectly. You won’t go wrong with Dani and Yagil — whether pet, child, parent or grandparent. I highly recommend them.”
