Our Mission
Our mission is to create images of life through unique and fine art photography. Our greatest wish is that our photographic images will be valued and cherished now... and for future generations.
It is such a kick to be one of the top pet photographers in the Kansas City area! How great is it to be able to roll around on the floor, get handshakes and sloppy kisses from a new furry friend... all while making a beautiful portrait for their human? We have the perfect combination of love for the animal and skill in our craft. Lori is a Master Photographer through the PPA and has been photographing pets for over 17 years.

Testimonial
"We absolutely loved our experience
with VanDeusen Photography. Lori was very accommodating, positive and I could tell she really enjoys doing her craft. She photographed our dogs and was extremely patient. She knew it would take a few minutes for both dogs to feel at ease. In the end I had an extremely difficult time choosing a photo that I ended up getting a book. She captured both dogs so well and can see their personality in each of the pictures. We will definitely use her again. I will recommend her to everyone!"

Celebrate Pets-
I am in love with not only my husband of over 29 years, a son that has left the nest, but our adopted house pets. We have three rescue fur pups Ali, a cute clever mutt mix, Charlie, a adorable lap dog doxiechon mix, and the newest member, Zac, a ferocious guard dog maltipoo that are all spoiled rotten...:) We also have a Heather a sweet adopted mini rex rabbit, George the clingy & chatty cockatiel, and 2 crazy parakeets named Stan & Ollie. Since childhood I have had a passion for all furry, feathery, and even scaly family members. My mother frequently reminds me how upset I would be with her, because she wouldn't let me have more pets. So, I was determined that when I grew up, I would have a whole room full of animals... :) Yes, so I do now! Luckily my husband loves them as much as I do! They are truly a blessing in our lives! Whether I am photographing puppies once a month to capture every small change or catching The Last Embrace of an elderly pet, these images are priceless to the whole family. I am privileged to be able to provide this art to you.
