Only 10 Charity Sessions Available During the Bloom
The heather typically peaks from mid-August through September.
I only open up 10 charity sessions to protect the experience and ensure quality.
These are first come, first served - and once the heather fades, it’s gone until next year.
Why Dogs Trust - and Why Now?
As a lifelong dog lover and portrait artist, I know how important dogs are to the people who love them. Sadly, not every dog has found that kind of love, yet.
Dogs Trust helps thousands of dogs each year find safety, support, and forever homes.
This promotion is a way to celebrate the dog who’s already part of your life and help the ones who are still waiting for theirs.
Your £35 donation goes directly to Dogs Trust.
And you will walk away with memories you’ll treasure forever.

FAQs
Just in case you've got some questions first...
How well trained does my dog need to be?
While it would be useful for your dog to have a basic sit/stay, especially for studio sessions, I have worked with many dogs of mixed abilities over the years. We will work together at an appropriate pace to create the best images possible while ensuring that your dog isn't under any stress.
My dog is too nervous and doesn't like cameras.
I've incredible amounts of patience and will never put a dog through anything they are not happy with for the sake of a photograph. Unlike your camera phone, I can work with my camera from a distance away which often means the dogs don't even know they are being photographed..
Can I bring more than one dog or person?
Of course! I love multi-dog sessions and bringing along other family members or a friend makes for great images...or even just a helping hand during the session.
My black coloured dog never photographs well.
As the owner of blacks dog myself, I appreciate how hard they are to photograph. My many years of experience means that I know how to capture their dark fur perfectly. You will love how stunning they look in your finished artwork.
I'm not quite sure what I want as artwork.
The same day, super-relaxed, design appointment allows me to use my years of experience to help design the best possible artwork from the images you selected and your own home.
Will I be expected to buy something?
No pressure at all. You’ll see your photos and can use your £75 credit toward any artwork. Products start from £195, but most clients choose to spend from £500 and upwards, but that’s completely your choice.
