Remember every detail you love long after your time together has passed.

The velvet nose, the warm breath on your neck.

The adoring eyes and enthusiastic wiggle dance when you come home from work.

The special connection you share, the depth of which others don’t understand and words can never explain.

As Seen in

Absolutely incredible. Having two energetic young kelpies to deal with on my own, Michelle was amazing. The photos we have of our girls are absolutely perfect! We can’t wait to come back soon for some proper family ones ?

Worried your horse isn’t well trained or your dog can’t be off lead?

With years of experience owning, photographing and working with horses and dogs of different breeds, temperaments and personalities, beautiful portraits of even the most challenging subjects are guaranteed.

For safety reasons, nearly all pets photographed are haltered or on a lead which is removed afterwards in photoshop and they only need to stay still for a moment to capture a beautiful moment in time.

FAQ – Your Questions Answered

I sure can! Lots of patience, years of experience and a bag of tricks allows me to take photos of even the most challenging of subjects. I share my home with four Border Collies so understand the needs of energetic and reactive dogs!

I have a Patience Policy that ensures the comfort and happiness of the animals I work with is always my top priority.

The vast majority of the dogs you see on my website were photographed on lead for safety and handlers/leads are removed afterwards in photoshop.

Don’t worry, I’m fast, I know what shots look good for horses (and which don’t) and will still be able to create lovely portraits even if your horse is restless!

I’ve owned and been around horses for nearly 40 years, I understand their body language, behaviour and movement and use this knowledge to create beautiful portraits you will love.

If your horse is normally stabled I do recommend riding, lunging or paddock exercise several hours before the session just to take the edge off.

Sessions include up to two horses, dogs or other pets from the same household and their immediate family.

Additional pets can be included for $50 each.

Sure can – in fact I encourage it!

The deep connections we share with our beloved animals is a bond we treasure for life and there is no better way to remember them than with beautiful, emotion filled artwork that will only become more valuable with time.

Absolutely!

I’ve been a professional pet photographer for nearly 20 years and while horses and dogs are my speciality, I regularly photograph livestock such as cattle, sheep, poultry and goats for private and commercial clients and have also worked with cats, reptiles, rabbits and deer.

You can view my portfolio of other animals here.

Premium weekend vacancies are currently booking out 2-3 months in advance.

Weekday studio sessions (including commercial projects) can usually be secured within 2-3 weeks of booking, please allow a longer lead time if your session requires travel to you.

I predominantly work from my farm studio in Boyup Brook in the south west, but have limited availability to travel for private lifestyle photography sessions and commercial photography assignments throughout Western Australia.

Travel for studio black background horse photography at suitable locations is available for group bookings, please contact me for details.

Welcome

Pet’s are the best people, don’t you think?

If you are searching for a professional photographer who loves and understands animals and believes that our special horses and dogs are not just animals but important members of the family, then you’re in the right place!

I can’t wait to meet your special four legged family member and tell your story through beautiful art that celebrates your time together!
