CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
sela orr
She is literally the best photographer I’ve worked with and made my Goose boy look so perfect . Tonya really captured our personalities perfectly!
Highly recommend!
karen koenig
Tonya is wonderful with both animals and children, two of the hardest family members to capture on film! She is a professional from start to finish, and is so easy to work with.
We loved our photos!
lindsay powers
My family has done more than five sessions with Tonya over the past two years. Tonya truly has a gift. She has a great artistic eye and is also wonderful with pets and children. She is somehow able to capture unique personalities and the bond between animals and their humans. I highly recommend her!
TESTIMONIAL
Tonya went above and beyond to accommodate our scheduling needs. Most importantly, she was so patient and gentle with our boy during the session, taking the time to truly connect with him.
The photos she captured reflect his personality and spirit so perfectly—they’re something we’ll treasure forever.
We can’t thank Tonya enough for giving us these lasting memories, and we’re absolutely in love with the quality and care behind each image.

Tonya Dean
photographer
Tonya specializes in photographing the irreplaceable bond humans have with the animals who've befriend them.
Her work celebrates the unique life you live with the pets you love.
Tonya also delights in photographing families, especially illuminating children's distinct personalities and expressions as they develop through different life stages, along with documenting the special attachments they have with their parents.
Tonya's been a mom to Spanish greyhounds and a special kitten born in a St. Louis alley, not to mention many, many stray rescues. She would have given anything back in the day to have a pet photographer document life with her soulmate rescue from Spain, Maddi Roo Flaca, and her legendary cat named Moses Bagheera.
Clients describe Tonya's style as classy and carefree, resulting in photographs that relish the joy, playfulness, and deep connections clients have with the ones they love.
Photos taken at The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Missouri
