Brand Photography - something different in lockdown. Like thousands of other photographers, I haven't been able to photograph family portraits, weddings or family events during the lockdowns over the last year. Apart from the lack of income, it's really frustrating not to be able to do the things that [...]
Will you photograph more than one dog? Many of our dog photography clients have small breeds and tend to have more than one dog. Three is a popular number. As a cheshire based dog photographer I'm often asked if I wouldn't mind photographing three or more dogs at a portrait [...]
Liverpool is my favourite urban photography location Every city, town and village has its own photo opportunities but Liverpool is abundant in it' sheer range of amazing locations and backdrops for location portrait portrait photography.

Capturing the true character of a dog in a photograph is paramount. It turns a good photo into a great photo. Capturing the true character of THREE dogs in the same photograph requires more than skill and experience – it demands patience. Good job I have it by the [...]
