TEXAS

Playful. Puppy. Personality.

There’s always something special about working with a young dog — so much to see, sniff, and explore.

From my side of the lens, there’s nothing better than capturing dogs being dogs… with a bit of guidance along the way.

Texas was brilliant from start to finish. Took everything in his stride — already a natural in front of the camera.

A lot can change in a few weeks when you’re a pup — it doesn’t stay like this for long.

I think a follow-up might be needed…
Texas, take two.

Be the hero of your own story.

This was taken on our recent road trip to Ireland — one of those quiet moments where everything just came together.

It’s since been recognised by both the UKPPA and the international WPE, which makes it even more special.

Wall worthy?
I’d say so.

TRACKER

Friendly. Proud. Curious.

Broadway is always special — but this one hit differently.

Completely relaxed in front of the camera. Immaculately groomed. Quietly self-assured. Tracker brought everything.

This image went on to become a finalist in the UK Photography Print Awards — earning double silver from both the UKPPA and the international WPE. Watching five industry-leading photographers review and critique it was an incredible experience.

A collection of firsts.
First Airedale I’ve photographed.
First print competition entered.
First finalist.

We didn’t set out to create an award image.
We set out to create something honest.
Something 17eight.

FOX

See. Point. Go!

Kicking off 2026 with the fantastic Mr. Fox.

Nothing beats a good swim, whatever the time of year — especially if there’s a stick involved. To Fox, everything wooden is a stick… regardless of size, or whether it’s still attached to the tree.

There’s never a dull moment when Fox is around.
His dad’s pretty cool too.

Authentic dogs, real moments — so 17eight.

REX

Bold. Playful. Water-obsessed.

From bush-sprinting to surprise water dives, Rex brought his whole self to this outdoor dog photography session. And his face? Every look told a story — the kind of personality that makes natural dog portraits so special.

We often hear: “My dog won’t sit still.” But honestly, that’s okay. Every dog photo session is tailored to your pup’s pace — zoomies, calm moments, and everything in between. Real moments make the best images.

Your bond with your dog is where the magic happens. It’s never about perfect poses — it’s about connection, trust and capturing who they truly are.

And if your pup chooses a puddle or a pond halfway through? That’s a yes from me.

Dogs being dogs always makes the best memories.

LILY & KIM

The. Best. Pair.

From Mykonos to Warwickshire, these two have shared quite the journey - learning, growing and adventuring together through all of life’s highs and lows.

From the moment we met, we knew this session was going to be something special. The soft morning light, the stunning location and the bond between Kim and Lily made for the perfect shoot.

Kim and Lily are the perfect example of how a dog and a human can come together and complete each other’s lives. And we were lucky enough to capture it 💕.

Watch out for our first blog post featuring this team..!

CARLTON

Dependable, Best Friend, Life Line.

Now this guy was special. A dream to shoot with, modelled like a pro and found all the best angles. A true professional inside and out even on his days off.
When Carlton isn’t exploring the woodland on a weekend, he’s working in the week training to be a guide dog. His guardians wanted to capture life with Carlton before he moves on to his new home helping people navigate the world - which is truly incredible.

It was a real privilege to shoot with Carlton and we just had to make time to let our hair down and run around like crazy before we got back to business.
⁠
Carlton, we salute you.

Winners all round at Lily the Lab and Friends Ale and Tails Show last weekend 🐶✨ What we expected was to capture dogs enjoying musical sit, the best biscuit catcher and the waggiest tail rounds – what we got was even better. Genuine connection through the little looks, the soggy cuddles and the unshakable bond between pups and their people 💛

TIZER

Determined. Athletic. Unstoppable.
From the moment Tizer hit the moors, there was only one thing on his mind — the ball. The wild Peak District winds didn’t stand a chance against his laser-like concentration. Eyes locked, muscles coiled, ready for action.

Every throw was a challenge he rose to meet, no hesitation, no distraction, just pure focus. That single-minded drive is what makes him extraordinary — a dog with heart, power and purpose.

Got a ball? Tizer’s ready. Who’s up for the next throw?
