Pet Portraits That Celebrate Your Most Loyal Companion
Our pets are more than animals — they’re family. A professionally crafted pet portrait is a heartfelt tribute to the unconditional love, joy, and companionship they bring into our lives.
At Strauss Peyton Kansas City, we create fine art portraits that capture your pet’s unique personality — from playful pups and regal felines to birds, bunnies, and beloved rescues.
These timeless portraits become cherished keepsakes, reminding you of the bond you share, long after muddy paws and wagging tails fade from the day-to-day.
Celebrate the soul behind the fur with portraits that say: "You are family. You are loved. You belong."

Thanks to Kaela and Jonathan, we lived a fantastic experience! They made it so easy for us and and we felt confortable right the way! They even accomodated complicated last minute work conditions, going out of their way to help us.
The final photos were so great that it was very hard to choose from them. The portait was of an artist (a shy artist) in the middle of her paintings. She looked gorgeous and the art work looked as wonderful as it is in reality.
Thank you Kaela and Jonathan. That was one of the best investments I have ever made!

I was nervous to do a photo shoot in a studio but Kaela made me feel sooo comfortable. The pictures are beyond what I could have imagined, fun, beautiful, sentimental, dramatic, joyful. Her and her husband were so catering to me and my rambunctious dogs and created true masterpieces for me! I will cherish these photos forever.

I recently had my headshots done by Strauss Peyton and they were spectacular, I could not have been more pleased. I highly recommend Strauss Peyton to anyone needing headshots, family portraits or any other professional pictures done.
