"You don't take a photograph, you make it." Ansell Adams

Pet Portraiture

Every pet has a story worth capturing.

Whether it's an energetic puppy charging through woodland, an older companion enjoying a gentle stroll, or a nervous rescue who feels safest at home, my aim is to create relaxed, natural portraits that reflect your pet's personality.

My signature Woodland Project uses beautiful natural locations around Lancashire to create timeless images with soft light and stunning scenery. For pets (or owners) where woodland walks aren't practical, I also offer accessible locations and home visits where suitable, ensuring every pet has the opportunity to be photographed comfortably.

    I'll then confirm everything ready for your shoot.

  • Every pet has their own personality, and that's exactly what I aim to capture.

    Rather than stiff poses, I focus on genuine expressions, natural behaviour and the special bond between you and your pet.

    You'll receive:

    A relaxed, patient approach

    Plenty of time for your pet to settle

    Natural, authentic images

    Professional editing with true-to-life colours

    Guidance before, during and after your session

    My goal is to create photographs you'll treasure for years to come.

  • Your session is designed to be relaxed and enjoyable for both you and your pet.

    There's no pressure for perfect behaviour—we work at your pet's pace.

    We'll spend time walking, playing and allowing natural moments to happen. If your dog needs breaks, treats or a game of fetch, that's all part of the experience.

    The result is genuine, character-filled photographs rather than forced poses.

  • Every session is slightly different, so I offer a range of packages to suit different needs and budgets.

    Packages can include:

    The photography session

    Professionally edited digital images

    Prints and wall art (if offered)

    Optional extras

    Please get in touch for a full price guide with no obligation.

  • Answer:

    A little preparation helps you get the very best from your session.

    Before your shoot I'll send you a guide covering:

    • What to bring

    • Choosing collars and leads

    • Favourite toys and treats

    • Exercise beforehand

    • Weather considerations

    • What to wear if you're joining the photographs

  • Absolutely.

    Many pets are naturally shy or easily distracted. I work patiently and never rush a session.

    We'll choose a suitable location with plenty of space, allowing your pet to relax and feel comfortable before we begin photographing.

    Please let me know about any behavioural or medical considerations before the session so I can plan accordingly.

  • Because most sessions take place outdoors, your pet's comfort and safety always come first.

    If the weather is particularly poor, we'll simply rearrange your session at no additional cost.

    Overcast days actually provide some of the most flattering light for pet photography.
