Conor Kerrigan
I am a Professional Dog Photographer in Kent who specialises in delivering bespoke pet portraits and wall art to my clients.
I’ve had a number of interests and achievements in my life. I attained my degree in Film and Television from Aberystwyth University in 2015. I’ve competed internationally in Karate, had the honour of training with the founder of Free Running, and built a YouTube channel with over a million views. Above all else, however, my greatest passion has always been with dogs. I have an intuition that allows me to communicate with them on their level. This skill helped me to achieve my Silver and Bronze Awards from the Guild of Photographers, a recognition of photographic excellence, aswell as my category win at the 2026 East Kent Coast Photography Competition.
I can comfortably work with puppies or kittens with short attention spans, blind or deaf animals, and excitable or reactive pets who can't stay still. I've even worked with dogs who "don't like men" and had incredible sessions. This is only possible because I listen to the animal. I read their body language and do everything I can to make my portrait sessions a comfortable and rewarding experience for them. The benefit for you is that this brings out the very best in them, so that you can have your furry friend’s true personality shine through in their portraits.
There is nothing more precious than that feeling you get when your dog greets you after a hard day. My goal is to capture that feeling and memorialise it in print for generations to enjoy.
I have launched Conor Kerrigan Photography to provide premium-quality pet portraits that capture the unique personalities of their dogs.
“Conor was incredibly patient with Fudge, taking time to get him used to the flash and rewarding him with treats. The images were of a very high standard and I had plenty to select from. The printed product I chose arrived beautifully presented. Overall, a highly professional service that had both the needs of the dog and client satisfaction at the centre. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Conor as a pawtrait photographer!”
