Capturing Memories of the Outdoors

Welcome to JSA Taxidemy

JSA was founded by the Ardoin family- Cajun Roots with a passion for Art, Inspiration and Capturing Memories of the Outdoors. With each mount, we strive to create beautiful works of art that you and your family will cherish for years to come; a conversation piece for your home and/or business that allows the customer to relive these special moments time and time again.

Providing a Lifetime of Memories

We also strive to build strong, personal relationships with each of our customers; working to make this a great experience! The time, patience, dedication and You'Nique style that is put into each mount allows them to tell a story, YOUR story. And it is our pleasure to share in these memories with you and your family. "For I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Phil 4:13

"Traditional Euro"

With Natural Habitat

JSA was founded by Josh & Shelly Ardoin. I'm Shelly the lead taxidermist. I grew up hunting and fishing. I've always been passionate about nature and the great outdoors. Stepping into the world of Taxidermy started as just a hobby then quickly evolved into an inspiring business. A business that allowed me to tap into my unique and creative side.

My interest in wildlife, preservation, inspiration as well as my artistic ability is evident in the work produced by JSA. I consider it an honor to assist hunters with their trophies and take a great deal of pride in preserving my client's hunting experience and memories. The photos posted here on our website are examples of our work and hope you enjoy them.
