Why Senior Pet Portraits Matter Now
Time moves quickly — even slower, gentler days are fleeting. Senior pets deserve to be celebrated with dignity, joy, and artistry. These portraits are more than pictures, they’re heirlooms, daily reminders of a life filled with unconditional love.
Whether your companion is a gentle soul who prefers a calm studio space, a curious older pup who still loves a backyard sniff-about, or a beloved cat who rules your living room, we tailor sessions to their needs, pace, and comfort.
Client Love: Stories That Move Us
“Yunet and Elaine are absolutely amazing! Book with them- you will not regret it! I contacted them a couple of weeks ago to inquire about a photo shoot for my terminally ill kitty. The final versions of our photos are so beautiful they brought tears to my eyes. These wonderful ladies perfectly captured the relationships we have with our kitties and as a family. They have truly allowed us to make new and beautiful memories during a difficult time. I'll be forever grateful for them and can't recommend them enough.”.”
— Megan and PittyPat
Personal stories like this are why we do what we do, to honor lives that have shaped ours.

About Olive & Fable
Olive & Fable was born from the belief that pets shape our lives in extraordinary ways. I’m Yunet, a fine art photographer, lifelong animal lover, and proud dog mom. After more than a decade in healthcare, I returned to my creative roots to tell the stories that matter most.
The bravest people I know are those who choose to love an animal fully, even knowing their hearts will one day break. At Olive & Fable, it is my honor to preserve that love in art designed to last.
We believe love knows no boundaries. Our roots as a women, minority, and LGBTQ-owned business inspire us to honor every unique and authentic bond.
