“Rafa took wonderful photos of our dog, Shadow, and made the whole process incredibly easy! We came from Minot to use her studio, and it was definitely worth the trip! If you love your pup, it's worth it to get your photos here at Dorm.” - Nick Cavallo

The face behind
Dorm Studio
Pet Photography


I'm Rafa, a Fargo-based photographer with a desire for human connection, sunny days, and the simple joys of life. I believe a picture is worth more than just a thousand words... I believe it's worth a lifetime of feelings, a lifetime of memories, a lifetime of aspirations. It's about the smiles you get when you go through you pet’s photo album or when you see the perfect cheesy grin your dog gave for a photo. It's about having their essence captured in images that will outlive us all. And that's what I'm here for – to make sure your pet’s photos are a true reflection of who they are, and to tell their story to the ones who are with us now and the ones who will remain after us.
