FAQ

I specialise in natural light canine and equine portrait photography, I also photograph people and families in natural settings.

All my photography is done on location in and around Oxfordshire, sometimes further by arrangement.

If you are outside my area and would like me to photograph for you there are a couple of options:

1. If you would like a dog shoot you could bring your dog to one of my Oxfordshire locations, as many clients have done. 

2. If you prefer I can travel to your location by arrangement. I currently charge 35p per mile for any additional mileage. This is something I do frequently, especially for equine photography when visiting stables.

The total distance that I am able to travel depends on several factors, please feel free to contact me to discuss.

A typical shoot usually takes around an hour, although we have no time restriction so we may take longer as necessary. This all depends on the number of animals, how they behave, the weather and various other factors.

It is best if you allow a morning or afternoon of your time so you can relax and enjoy the experience without feeling you need to rush off somewhere.

I only take on one shoot per day so you have my total attention on making your shoot special for you and enjoyable.

Absolutely!

 We make things as easy as possible for you by coming to your location at a time that suits you. During the summer months we also offer evening shoots to take advantage of the beautiful golden light.

Simply put, if you are not delighted with the results from your shoot I will refund, in full, any shoot booking fee you have paid.

You can book with the confidence that you'll love your photographs or you'll get your money back.

Yes, we offer exceptional value framed wall art packages and collections.

Yes, we can supply digital files in bundles. These are high resolution and fully retouched.  

Because I work on location every shoot is different.

You should be able to see and select your photographs on the same day shortly after your shoot.

This is best done in your own home because we can position wall art samples and styles in different rooms and decide where you would like to locate them.

We always do a weather check the evening before a shoot and if constant rain is forecast we contact you to reschedule your shoot. 

If we meet for the session and the weather prevents us from completing the shoot I will arrange another date with you at no further cost.

Prior to the shoot, please give some thought about any characteristics that really capture their personality. Our aim is to provide you with special memories for years to come.

We all want your dog to look at their best so remove any sleep from their eyes and brush and groom as you would normally.  

Exercise your dog at the shoot location prior to the session so they can burn some energy and familiarise themselves with the environment.

If your dog is anxious don’t worry, you can stand close by to reassure them. I bring along slip leads for this purpose, and these can be edited out in post-production.

If they do not socialise well with other dogs, please let me know so we can choose a quiet area. 

Bring some treats, their favourite toys and some water too!

Don't worry, it only takes a fraction of a second for a great photograph!

For a portrait you can keep your dog close to you on a slip lead (we can provide these) which can be edited out of the photograph later.

We also use fast shutter speeds to capture split-second moments of action shots for you to choose from.

Our photo sessions are fully guaranteed, so you are assured of a great result, or your money back.

We take all the time necessary to help you choose your photographs during a guided design consultation. We select your favourite pictures and discuss the various finish options based on your chosen images and the location for your bespoke wall art.

This is a fully guided process and I am with you to help you make the right choices. We start with a slideshow overview to give you a feel for what we have captured, then we filter by choosing those special pictures which impact you emotionally.

Remember, your wall art is with you forever so the right selection deserves a little time.

When you have placed your order I spend time enhancing your images to really make them pop.

I will then send you a digital proof for you to approve prior to print. Once approved the images are sent to our lab to be hand crafted for you. You can expect to receive them within six weeks, although it will often be sooner.

I will notify you of any updates and when your wall art is ready I will arrange to deliver your order in person, whenever possible, or directly to you via courier.

Yes, I carry full public liability insurance.
