London Dog Photographer in Bushy Park, Hampton, Greater London
This was a fun day in the office! Google and Sky were such fun characters, it was a pleasure to work with them and to try and capture a bit of their character. Google, a shar pei-beagle cross had a kind of regal presence, and Sky the lab was full of joy, energy and love for water. Really enjoyed the morning photographing these two in action in gorgeous Bushy Park and then capturing some relaxing moments at home. I love the family portait!

Dog photography Richmond upon Thames /Richmond-upon-Thames Dog Photographer
I was commissioned to take several portraits of two wonderful doggies who were not only very photogenic but also the perfect models! I took several individual and together portraits in their home in beautiful Richmond upon Thames, and then moved outdoors for a few action and scenic shots. My client commissioned me as she wanted to give a memory of photos as a birthday gift to her daughter - a very sweet present which I hope will bring fond memories in years to come.

Pet and Family photoshoot / London Dog Photographer
I recently did a fun family & pet photo session for a client in Hampton who wanted some photos taken of her dog and two boys, with the aim to frame three photos and give them as a gift to her husband. For these, I photographed the dog and kids against a white background and framed the shot to only show top half of the head. We went out for the second half of the session and enjoyed a crisp sunny winter day in beautiful Bushy Park. You can see a selection of photos from that session below.

Jango the Spanish Water Dog at Warwick
The day after Jango's appearance at the Crufts, we went to Warwick to take some more candid shots for Jango's Facebook page and promotional material. It was a lovely warm spring day, Warwick provided some beautiful backdrops for our photo session, and Jango enjoyed having his photo taken and being admired by passers-by. I thoroughly enojoyed this photo shoot and I wish Jango every success in his future show career! For more images from the day, please click on the link below.
Crufts 2016, NEC, Birmingham
I was recently commissioned to photograph Jango the Spanish Water Dog at the Crufts dog show in Birmingham. I used to go to dog shows when I was a little girl, but I have never been to the Crufts and was so excited to go! Jango came all the way from America, after recently winning best in breed at the prestigious Westminster Dog Show in New York, and was making his first appearance in the UK. Unfortunately, he didn't take the same title this time, but he clearly enjoyed being shown and all the attention he received from his new fans. Here is a selection of images from the day. More to follow later on this week!
Dog photography in Twickenham, South west London _ Dog photographer Richmond, Twickenham, London
Meet Gordon. He is a staffie who was found abandoned and scared on the streets of London. After nobody came in to reclaim him from a council pound, he was taken in by the Mayhew Animal Home. The staff at the centre noticed that he didn't hear them entering his kennel in the morning and after a series of test it was determined that Gordon is completely deaf. Staffies struggle to find a home even if perfectly healthy so Gordon's deafness was another setback in the adoption process. However, the staff at the Mayhew were determined to give him a second chance and they started teaching him sign language, and urging him to use other senses to compensate for his lack of hearing, giving him new tools to communicate with people. He responded really well to training, and soon learned a few commands like sit, stand and stay, and started bonding more easily with people. After 9 months, the wait was finally over - a couple came in to see Gordon and they instantly fell in love with him! Gordon now lives with Josanne and Richard (and a rabbit called Munch), who continue to teach him sign language and train him at Rachel Worley's Reality dog training classes. I photographed Gordon just before New Year, after he won the first prize for best trick at Rachel's Christmas class (he barks when he sees an appropriate sign). It was the first time I ever encountered a deaf dog and I was touched by the special bond Gordon and his owners share. I was also amazed by how many different commands he knew, and how in tune he was with Josanna and Richard. Our photoshoot included a session at home to capture some cozy home moments, and a session outdoors where Gordon enjoyed running around and showcasing his many tricks. This is such a heart warming story, which I hope inspires others to follow Josanne and Richard's steps in adopting a needier dog. You can read more on Gordon's story by following his blog, or reading articles that were published in Brent & Kilburn Times and the Mirror.

Cat photography, Dorking, Surrey
I recently photographed this lovely Maine Coon cross called Archie, who was quite a poser and really playful so taking photos of him wasn't as challenging as some cat photography can be. All I needed was a cat toy and the skill of one-handed picture taking! If you’d like to see a selection of photos from this photoshoot, please click on the link below.
