About Artist

Ellen Zangla

I've been a professional pet photographer in Loudoun County, VA, since 2009. I photograph dogs, cats, and other pets; families that include pets; and dogs in action. Almost all of my work is outdoors with the exception of animals who don't go outside A as well as fundraisers. Giving back to the community is a big part of what I do; since 2015 I've raised nearly $130,000, mostly for local and animal welfare groups. In 2019, I published my first book, "Tails of Loudoun County," featuring photos and stories of more than 200 pets in Loudoun. I recently started a new book project. I live in Hamilton, VA, with my husband, son, two dogs, and four cats.
