Youngi Sumi Style Pet Portraits Local Chicago Artist Holiday Product Shoot

I met Laura at an outdoor art show this summer at The Drake in Oak Brook. Though Lex and I don’t have any pets right now we still had to stop and check out her work! We quickly bonded and were exchanging emails. I have bene fortunate to work with Laura on some fun projects these past few months including taking photos for her holiday shop!

Here are a few things I really love about Laura:

-Her style is so unique! I have not seen other work like this done before.

-She is incredibly passionate. Trust me. Every time I talk to her she has about a 100 awesome ideas and counting in the works :)

-10% of every sale goes to animal shelters! So when you buy from her, not only are you supporting her business but you are helping animals in need.

She has so many unique gift ideas for this upcoming holiday season! So please, instead of running to your local Target or pushing check out on your Amazon cart, consider buying from someone like Laura. You can find her work here!

And if you can’t buy from local artists right now, here is a blog post I wrote up a few months on how to support small businesses. Most ideas don’t involve you sending any money but mean a lot to the small business owner!
