Dog Photography in Cumbria: A Stunning Start to 2025: Brampton & Carlisle Portrait Sessions
From professional recognition at The Societies of Photographers awards to intimate portrait sessions that celebrate the beauty of your dogs, these first two months have blown me away. Whether you're looking for dog photography in the countryside around Brampton, the Lake District, urban images in Carlisle, or sessions anywhere in Cumbria, I'm passionate about creating portraits that truly capture your dog's spirit.
Capturing an Older Lurcher's Legacy: Paddy Photographed in Style in Historic Northern Cumbria
Against the weathered stones of a historical location in Northern Cumbria, a distinguished gentleman with soulful eyes and the elegance of a natural model posed for his dog photography session. Meet Paddy, an 11-year-old lurcher whose surprisingly boundless energy which defies his years. As a specialist dog photographer in Cumbria, I was delighted to capture his distinctive personality against such a magnificent backdrop near a place where Paddy knows as home.
A Dog Photography Adventure in York Pt. 2
Welcome to Day 2 of my York dog photography adventure! This time, I had the pleasure of photographing two stunning large breeds: Bea the Standard Poodle and Doogle the Old English Sheepdog in the heart of this historic city. With their envious coats and striking presence, they brought a whole new dynamic to my urban dog photography sessions. I’ll be sharing insights into location scouting in York, the challenges of winter light and a spot of rain, and sharing the final images themselves. I’ll also be returning to York in a few weeks for my dog photography calendar project, and after all of these sessions, I know this city will continue to draw me back for more incredible canine portraits.
