A Little About Me (and My Approach)
Behind the camera, my work is guided by a simple philosophy: letting animals just be animals. For over forty years, animals, dogs in particular, have been a central part of my life. Over the decades, I’ve learnt to read their subtle body language, anticipate their next move and quickly figure out your pets unique personality.
The Secret is the Energy
A big part of why these sessions work so well comes down to a quiet atmosphere. I am naturally a very calm person and animals pick up on that vibe immediately. Because animals mirror the energy around them, keeping our time together patient and unhurried allows even the most high-energy or nervous animals to settle down completely.
Just a Walk in the Hills
We don’t force poses or stressful setups. Instead, a session feels just like a relaxed weekend walk in the hills. My job is simply to keep the environment peaceful, let your animals enjoy the outdoors, and wait for that split second where their true character shines through naturally.
