EXPLORING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN DOGS AND ART
ANSWERING THE QUESTION: TED THE COCKAPOO
As somebody who doesn't own a dog, I often find myself faced with questions like 'so, what's your favourite breed?' and 'when you do get a dog, what do you think you'll go for?'. For the longest time I couldn't answer. I've never had a dog, yet I'm lucky enough to...
FEATURED ARTIST: JENNIFER GENNARI
I'm a huge believer that inspiration can be found anywhere. Just because I'm a photographer, doesn't mean that I only seek out dog photography for inspiration and ideas. We can learn valuable lessons from studying art outside our own niches, which in turn can inspire...
A TRIP TO CAMBRIDGESHIRE: MILLIE THE BORDER TERRIER
It's safe to say that my work takes me to a lot of different places, from photographing rescue dogs on the sun-soaked coastlines of Mexico and Costa Rica, to shooting clients way out in Texas, USA! But when I'm back home in the UK, it's actually quite rare for me to...
MR APRIL: FLASH THE BORDER COLLIE
Okay, so I'm running a little bit behind on my calendar project... But I have been managing to time each session to its corresponding month (yay!) which has meant that - for the most part - the resulting photos have been a good representation of the season. Probably...
PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: FINE ART PRINT FOLIO
As much as I love big beautiful framed artwork, not everybody has the space for a 30"x20" portrait on their living room wall! In fact, it's not unusual for my clients to seek out smaller alternatives. Previously I've offered loose prints as an option for anybody...
MARKING THE OCCASION: BEANS THE SIBERIAN HUSKY
People commission dog photography for a variety of different reasons. Whether they're looking for a unique gift experience for a loved one, or commissioning a portrait session for their own hound, the underlying reason is usually the same. A photography session is an...
CANINE CINEMA: MY TOP DOGS IN FILM
Cannes film festival is well underway this week, and it got me thinking (as I usually do) about cinema. Anybody who knows me will know that I’m a serious film lover. From Disney classics to the latest offering in foreign film, I’m game for anything. And if it happens...
CELEBRATING THE CORGI: GLADYS AT CASTLE ASHBY
You may have heard the sad news earlier this week that Willow, the last corgi of Queen Elizabeth II, passed away – marking the first time that the monarch has not owned a corgi since the end of the second world war. In fact, Willow was the 14th generation descended...
PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: WOODEN PHOTO BLOCK
The launch of The Artisan Hound has been so much more than a new name and website. It's created a stronger connection between me and my artwork, and it's also been an amazing opportunity to me to revisit exactly what I offer my clients when they book a photography...
