Welcome to Breen Photo

Hi there!

Welcome to Breen Photo

I'm Dave. If you're reading this, you're curious what a real photo session with your dog looks like — so let me show you. Give me about three minutes: I'll walk you through how I work, you tell me a little about your crew, and by the end you'll have everything you need to decide.

P.S. Quality control here is handled by Chloe, my Goldendoodle — head treat tester and occasional model.

First things first…

Who’s the star of the show?

Tell me about your dog — or dogs! Everything from here on is about them.

No training needed — I work with your dog's personality, not against it. And leashes are totally fine: I remove them in post-production, so the final images look clean and natural.

Totally optional — but seeing your pup helps me start picturing the session before we've even talked. (Also, let's be honest: I just love seeing your dog.)

Anything about a session that worries you? (optional)

Tick any that apply. It helps me plan the right spot and pace.

So glad to meet your pup!

Why families choose Breen Photo

Professional gear, zero compromises

I shoot with the best available professional cameras and lenses — equipment built to freeze a split-second head tilt or a full-speed run in beautiful light. Your dog only gives a moment once; my gear never misses it.

Hours of editing on your images

Every image I deliver gets individual attention — light, color, stray leashes, distractions in the background — until it truly pops. Plenty of photographers take hundreds of frames and dump them to a download link with little or no editing. That is not what happens here.

Patience for every personality

Zoomie puppies, shy seniors, dogs who have never once sat still — we go at your dog's pace, and it shows in every frame.

Where I work

I'm based in Harriman, New York and photograph throughout Orange, Rockland & Bergen counties — parks, trails, waterfronts, even your own backyard — plus nearby towns within about 30 miles of Monroe, NY. And I'm always happy to travel for a truly great location. Tell me your town and I'll suggest spots that fit your dog's personality.

How a session works

I time sessions around golden hour — the 90 minutes leading into sunset — when the light turns warm, soft, and a little bit magical. It's a huge part of why my images look the way they do. And inside that window there's no rush: your dog sets the pace.

Great light needs cooperative weather, so scheduling is weather-dependent by design. If the forecast turns flat or stormy, we move the session rather than settle. My clients understand that this flexibility is part of getting extraordinary images — I'd rather reschedule than deliver ordinary.

Let’s talk honestly

What an experience like this costs

I'll be upfront: I'm not the least expensive photographer around, and that's on purpose. Between the equipment, the session itself, and the hours of editing behind every delivered image, this is a craftsman's process — not a shoot-and-dump download. Sessions begin at $395, I offer several packages, and most of my clients invest $1,000–$1,500 altogether across their session and the artwork they take home.

The Great Image Guarantee: if you don't find images you'd proudly hang on your wall, I'll refund your session fee in full. Every package. Every time.

No pressure and no commitment today — when we talk, we’ll find the package that fits what you want on your walls.
