Pet photography
Our focus is on highlighting the
I have kept dogs [ and horses] most of my life, and I love meeting new ones!
At the moment we have two Saluki X- Spot and Lily,
I am happy to travel anywhere in Lincolnshire and beyond to a venue of your dog's choice for their photography session or you can come to me to the studio, or garden studio in Ruskington.
We have natural light and wonderful places for doggie posing – the best environment for photographing your four-legged friends. Studio shots are available for a more classic look.
A typical session will take about an hour – depending on how excited your pet is! I come armed with my camera, balls and toys and a few treats!
What to expect
Our bespoke sessions are fun and relaxed to ensure that you, your family and pet(s) enjoy your time during your photography session.
My role to capture those moments that can not only be seen but felt too. Not only that, but we will be on hand to offer you photography direction and plenty of posing advice throughout the whole process.
Each shoot is unique just as is every pet and your relationship with them is. However, our process is simple, and our aim is for it to be one full of laughter. From introductions to setting up the locations, and those final fun shots, you’ll be smiling from ear to ear.

Private shoots are the perfect opportunity to get photos of you and your furry friend in your favourite places. Using the stunning backdrops from your chosen location, we can craft a unique and special collection of horse photos to treasure forever.
The sky is the limit: the beach, your favourite park, a city, your home, etc..

Capturing your pet's personality at our Dedicated Pet Photography Studio
In our friendly and warm studio pet photography sessions offer you the chance to have unique portraits of your pets whether they are furry, feathered or scaly. Our studio sessions are conducted at your pet’s own pace. We take our time to get to know them a little so that their distinct characters are captured perfectly.
We’ve designed our studio sessions to be fun, relaxed and most importantly tailored to you and your pet’s personality. Our goal is to give you an enjoyable experience with your pet and beautiful artwork to display in your home.
I also offer a pop-up pet studio where I can bring my portable battery operated set up that will turn any area into a pet photography studio. With full creative control over the lighting to perfectly highlight each horse’s beauty. I bring 3 backdrops with me to compliment any animal. They are simply secured grip clips depending on the venue. With the portable lighting I can move the light to each backdrop so we can create different looks to each photo, giving a great variety to the end results.
Prices start from £45
Details of Your Pet Photoshoot
- On the day of the shoot, the first 5-10 minutes will be used to get to know everyone and plan any particular shots you have in mind.
- Everyone (including animals) taking part in the shoot should be clean and pampered before the session begins.
- A quick survey of the area and background will need to take place before the session can begin.
- Different outfits are recommended to add variation to the photoshoot. Comfortable is ideal, for both humans and animals alike
Andrea
Danielle is one of the most humble people you will ever meet. Her photography skills, knowledge and patience with animal (and human) clients is exceptional. She never rushes a shoot and ensures she captures the client's perfect moment ALWAYS. Danielle listened to my ideas, and with her expertise she made suggestions, culminating in exactly what I wanted and more. Post shoot Danielle arranged a viewing to go through the photographs and I placed my order. When it arrived...... Well..... I was elated, to say the least. Even the packaging was beautiful. So many added finishing touches to Danielle and her work, I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Don’t Stress & Relax
When booking a photoshoot session with us, don’t stress if things are taking a little longer than expected. Also, we recommend keeping your day after the session free, so we can ensure to secure the perfect images of you and your horse.
We all know that animals are emotionally sensitive. If you feel tense or get stressed, they will pick up on it. There's no picture limit or strict time demands, so if we need to, we can take the time out and ease back into it.
Bring the Family & Enjoy
Your relationship with every family member (two & four-legged) is unique, if you would like to we would love to welcome your family also.
Make sure to enjoy it. Go with the flow, your happiness will make every shot all the better. Your job is to have fun, ours is to capture that. If you put your trust in us, it can become a true celebration of the relationship you’ve built with your horse.
What Next?
You know that wall space you’ve got? You know, that big empty wall in the dining room just begging to be filled? Annoying, isn’t it?
What better way to fill it than with a stunning image of your horses, dogs or whole family? And not just to hide the hole and the edge shadows.
You just know it’ll be a glorious conversation piece. But first, there’s a process to follow.
Step 1 ~ CHOOSE YOUR PACKAGE
Once you’ve decided, we need to get your deposit paid to secure your date and start to prepare your session. My portfolio is a good place to start choosing the type of photos and poses you like
Step 2 ~ ENJOY THE SESSION!
I show up, look around, and find (or make) great locations. If you have booked a studio session I will need you to show me the space and I will set up. You can change outfits. So can your horse or dog. Swap if you like. I shoot in a relaxed and natural format. I just mean that I document your relationship with your horse. Sort of ‘day in the life’, reportage style. So we keep it real, work around you and your animals to make it a great , fun memorable experience.
The more relaxed everyone is the better the results. I know if it were me booking a session, these are the kind of memories I’d cherish forever. And I know as a photographer, I can get really immersed in my subject and feel your relationship.
If it is a studio session I will set up my battery operated light and backdrop to turn the indoor school or barn into an equine photography studio. Ready to bring your horse in to acclimatise them to the slightly unusual situation. My approach is slow, calm, and quiet. I have lots of tricks up my sleeves to get your horses attention and looking just where we want them, but an extra pair of hands is always helpful!
Step 3 ~ VIEW THE RESULTS
We book a viewing date for two/three weeks later. Where I will invite you round to my little garden studio to show you a full slide show of your images.
I go home, have a glass of something, then edit furiously. I usually post a couple of sneak peaks on my Facebook page usually because I cannot resist and to give you a taste of what's to come!
The date will then arrive for your viewing. I will show you all of your finished images on a slideshow and then you choose the images you love most to put in your favourites folder. From there you choose how you want to display them and with my assistance we reach your final choice. If your package already includes products, then we select the photos for this. Please feel free to bring family and friends to this viewing. Cake may also be on the cards to help with the choosing process!
I will then upload all of your images onto your own private gallery on my website, send you the link and password so that you can look at them over and over again. As well as share with family and friends! I will also complete the order for your chosen products and hand deliver or post them to you as soon as possible
