This is George a member of the Warwickshire flyball team, taken when I visited them for a training session earlier this year. I love the emotion captured in this pet portrait, with one leg off the ground and focussed on his trainer.

It is important when you take a dog portrait to have someone else behind you to ensure that the subject is looking towards them.

It was a ‘reet good day’ in West Yorkshire.

Early one Shropshire morning, I got the call. I know it was early, I was only on my second cup of coffee.

Did I fancy coming up to West Yorkshire to take some portraits of a horse and its owners. Did I ‘eck?

As fast as it takes a Yorkshireman to bemoan the state of English cricket since the heady days of Geoffrey Boycott, I’d packed my kit and was off.

Now while I was experiencing the joy that is the Manchester ring road, the owners were grooming their horse. So that by the time I arrived, I was looking at stunning creature. Poise and power fused into one sleek, shimming body.

But for all the owners’ cooperation, the weather was still planning to ruin the day. However, nothing was going to stop me.

I worked quickly between showers.

When the sun came out, we made the most of it and when it started to pour, we carried on shooting in the stables.

And this flexible approach worked, so that before too long I had a series of beautiful portraits of the horse and rider working as one. The time the owners having spent braiding the mane and brushing the horse’s coat really paying dividends, adding to the quality of the shots.

When I finally called an end to the day and packed my kit away, I left two happy owners with a series of portraits that they will treasure for years to come. 

And that in my books, is a reet good day.

Elveden Dog Day - The official photographer's perspective

Now in its third year, the Elveden Dog Day continues to grow in popularity – and it’s not hard to see why.

On Sunday, 14^th I stepped into the Walled Gardens of The Elveden Estate in Thetford and instantly was in what can only be described as doggie heaven.

There were competitions for the dog with the waggiest tail and the most handsome pooch. There were brightly coloured stalls packed with treats for both dogs and owners (and yes, I’m facing a constant battle with my ever expanding waistline). And naturally there were children chasing dogs and dogs chasing children.

So pausing long enough to grab a small pork pie, I made the most of what promised to be a great day and as the official photographer, I did what I do best. Strolling amongst the bustling crowds I started capturing those magic moments. The quick sideways glance. The instant of sheer pleasure as a dog shows off to its owner. The child cuddling its loved one. I’d like to think I got it all. From Jack Russells to Dalmatians, Beagles to Sausage dogs.

And through it all, the sun shone down. Casting a golden light on the day’s events.  I was in my element.

By the end of the day I had all the photos I wanted; you can see them here http://goo.gl/OO96KM and I’d finally earned a cool pint.

If you visited my stand on the day, thank you and if you’d like to contact me about any pet photography that I could help with, then I look forward to hearing from you.
