Authentic, story-telling photography, for pet-parents and brands

 

Because the best photographs aren't posed.
They're the muddy paws, the sleepy cuddles, the windswept walks and the tiny moments you'll want to remember forever.

“We have used Emily for our photography for a number of years now. Her style, professionalism, and talent are unmatched. The models and locations she sources for us really take the stress out of
pre-production logistics.

I would 100% recommend Emily to anyone looking for high-quality photography that oozes personality and showcases love and connection between pet and owner.”

“Emily was fantastic with our dog who is reactive and nervous about meeting strangers. She knew exactly how to calmly interact with him and I love her approach of just letting the dogs be themselves and capturing their personalities. The photos we received are incredible, my most cherished photos by far!”

We have a range of shoot packages available where your pet takes the lead. The whole photoshoot is about the two of you/the whole family just doing what you usually would.
