Applications are now open.
Throughout the year, we select a limited number of dogs to participate in creative portrait projects, magazine features, and special publications. We're looking for dogs with personality, expression, and stories worth telling.
Where Their Story Could Be Told
Every featured dog has the opportunity to become part of something special.
Selected dogs may be featured in Lifestyles of the Posh & Pampered, highlighted on our website and social media, showcased in studio displays, or included in future creative portrait projects and seasonal campaigns.
Every project is thoughtfully designed to celebrate the remarkable bond you share with your dog.
If Your Dog Is Selected
Every selected dog is invited to participate in a thoughtfully designed portrait experience that celebrates their unique personality and story.
From your planning consultation to the finished artwork, every detail is created with care, intention, and attention to the bond you share.
Your experience includes:
✔ A personalized planning consultation
✔ A guided portrait session in our studio or on location, depending on the project
✔ The opportunity to be featured in Lifestyles of the Posh & Pampered, our website, social media, or future creative campaigns
✔ A complimentary fine art portrait from your session
✔ The opportunity to purchase additional artwork if you choose
✔ A relaxed, pet-friendly experience from beginning to end
Every application is personally reviewed. If your dog is selected for an upcoming project, we'll reach out with all the details.
