about Shaina

Shaina Fishman is a commercial photographer specializing in animals. After studying commercial photography at Syracuse University, she began her career working in fashion photography and spent ten years working as Peter Lindbergh’s digital tech. Her transition from fashion to focusing solely on animals was sparked when she began photographing her papillon and other dogs at the dog park after long days on fashion sets. Using her time in fashion photography as inspiration, Shaina uses a graphic and contemporary approach. Her images are playful and humorous, and personify her animal subjects.

Shaina works on assignments from national ad campaigns to packaging and pro-bono projects. She has published two books, and her photographs can be seen on packaging and billboards around the world.
