The Session Steps

  • Dog photograph of a white and black Spaniel photographed crawling along a tree outdoors in Kent during Autumn

    Step 1: Consultation Session

    At the heart of my process is a bespoke approach that ensures your dog’s Portrait Session is enjoyable and that you get the photos you’re dreaming of. It all starts with a Consultation Call.

    By the end of our call, I’ll have a clear understanding of what you’re looking for and can guide you through the next steps to ensure a smooth, enjoyable experience.

    Step 2: Portrait Session

    My Outdoor Sessions take place at various locations across Kent and focus on allowing your dog to be themselves in a natural, relaxed environment.

    With my Mobile Studio, I bring the studio experience right to your doorstep. This session is ideal for dogs who are more comfortable at home or if you prefer a more intimate setting.

    Step 3: Reveal Session

    The Reveal Session is where it all comes together! After our Portrait Session, it’s time to see the images I've created for you. You can also see exactly how your chosen portraits will look in your home at different print sizes.

    This means each piece is as unique and special as your dog.

FAQs

  • Your dog’s safety is my number one priority. Your dog can comfortably remain on a lead for the entire session whilst I provide clear instructions on how to position it to ensure it can be cleanly removed in retouching. It is far easier to remove a lead from a photograph than it is to add a dog back in.

  • The wonderful thing about photography is that it captures an instant, which means it only takes a split second to catch your dog in a pose. I will work as fast or as slow as your dog needs.

  • Each dog I work with is an individual, and I adjust my approach to meet their specific needs. I have worked with dogs known to be nervous, reactive, or even supposedly to hate men. My calm demeanour and willingness to let them set the pace of our interaction have always meant I can achieve results my clients are happy with.

  • Your session can take place anywhere in Kent. I’m happy to provide personal recommendations for picturesque locations that I know will work well, or to join you at your dog’s favourite walking spot.
    I also offer Mobile Studio Sessions that can be held in the comfort of your own home.

    Sessions outside of Kent are subject to travel and accommodation expenses.

  • My standard Portrait Sessions accommodate up to two pets from the same household. I am happy to work with more, though this will require more than the typical two hours, and the session price will vary accordingly.

  • Having a professional photography session is certainly a luxury experience. However, you receive a guided experience from start to finish, and you need to put in little to no effort to achieve high-quality results and premium artwork you can cherish for years. I have never had anyone say that my prices were too high for the service they received.

    Our dogs are also an invaluable part of our lives, and unfortunately, they are in it for such a short time. There is nothing more saddening to me than when I hear from people that they wish they’d booked a session while they had the chance.

Dog photograph of a Belgian Malinois outdoors at a woodland in Kent

Conor responded to me very quickly, and we had a great conversation about LuLu and her background, as well as mine. I was pleasantly surprised by his genuine interest in getting to know both LuLu and me, which demonstrated his professionalism.

LuLu was the final piece of our family puzzle, so capturing a professional photo of us together was a top priority. She adored Conor, who took the time to build trust with her quickly. The two hours flew by! LuLu was engaged the entire time, her excitement unwavering as she enjoyed all the treats and affection.

It was an amazing day with an incredible person who is outstanding with my dog. LuLu was happy, and the pictures are stunning. Honestly, we couldn't have asked for more from this session and experience.

Photograph of a cat sat next to a premium quality matted print of itself

“Conor brought over the edited shots for me to pick which were printed. He even hooked up my TV to show me the shots on a slideshow. I am very picky about a lot of things, and I was worried I would irritate him by wanting to change small details about how my products were printed. But far from being irritable he was enthusiastic about every change I wanted to make, however small. In fact he and his assistant helped me try several different formats for my kitties names so they fitted neatly on the front of the photo keepsake box!

A final but important note, unlike can be customary in these roles, Conor didn't "upsell" me, or pressure me into purchases out of my budget. He was very happy to work within whatever figure I gave him, and I believe would have treated me the same if my budget was £100 or £100,000.”
