all about our photography sessions
You have the choice of either a Dog Photoshoot session or a Horse Photoshoot session which can include your dog too. We offer this as most equestrians have a dog and we just can’t exclude a member of your animal family. Our photoshoots are all about capturing their character and some special memories for you to look back on forever. The sessions are all about fun and relaxation so we will always take time and allow for moments of downtime during the shoot as this is still a very different experience for your furry friends and we want them to feel at ease and look stunning. Whether you have purchased one of our Voucher options or received a session as a gift or as a special giveaway from us you will always receive the same care and attention.
Take a look below at the Steps of a Session for a general idea. You can find more specific information on the Dog and Horse Photoshoot pages (see the links below or follow the menu links). If you have any questions or would just like to chat please do not hesitate to contact me.

Step 1Choose Your Session Whether you have a dog or horse session your images will always capture those memories of the special experience and the character of your special friend. Once you've made the decision to celebrate your relationship, we'll organise a date and time. |
Step 2Enjoy Your Session At the start, we always have a meet & greet time to ensure everyone is relaxed for the photoshoot. During the session, I will always check if anyone needs some time out to relax, and take time to discover and show the bond between you with some beautiful images. |
Step 3View The Results After the session, we will discuss and look at some options for displaying your favourite images. We will also arrange your viewing session for about a couple of weeks where you will view the final images to make your choices, if you can. It's always worth having some tissues to hand! |
Frequently Asked Questions
The Photo Session
We meet with you at the arranged location and after taking some time to chat about the session and meeting your furry friend we head off to create your special and individual images.
Viewings
Our viewings are conducted via Zoom and we organise this at the end of your Photo Session. We ask that anyone who should be involved in the decision making be at the session. We offer viewings in the evenings as well as daytime so for those who work we consider this when organising times. It is important to watch the viewing on either a computer or TV screen preferably not a tablet and definitely not a phone.
Nervous Animals
Nicola is very used to handling horse and dogs and understands how to relax them during the shoot and not create situations that will upset them or put them under pressure. We always ask if there are any situations or things that will distress them so we can avoid these. So do let us know.
Can I be in the Photos
Absolutely! With horses the majority of images will include you and we always discuss your outfit choices so you look great too. Its a good idea to bring a selection of outfits so we can make choices on the day and also have backups for when your horse manages to drool on you during the session.
With dog sessions we always suggest having at least a few together even though having your photo taken is something you generally hate. After all it is about your relationship and if you really don't like them there will be plenty of others to choose from. Remember we are used to this situation and will relax you and not pose you feeling awkward but will create fun and loving moments for you and your dog together.
