Pet portraits in Enfield
- Included in the session: A patient, treat-friendly session where your pet sets the pace, with or without you in the frame, and the chosen portraits finished as prints, framed pieces or canvases if you want them on the wall.
- Where we photograph in Enfield: Your home or garden, or a walk at Forty Hall Estate grounds, Trent Country Park or New River Loop and Town Park. We travel from Northwood, about 15 miles away. If you would ever rather come to us, the Northwood studio is an option.
- To book: Use the form at the end of this page, or call or WhatsApp 07956 505383, and we will arrange a date and place in Enfield.
Thirty to forty minutes is the working window, and it is short on purpose. We start with the still, attentive frames while concentration is intact, then move to movement, recall down a path and the daft ones, which need no concentration at all.
Bring whatever your dog will genuinely cross a field for, and a favourite toy in reserve. Pictures come back in colour and in mono, with a square version included for the ones heading straight to a phone.

We had a fun and relaxing family photoshoot. Kaushik managed to make us all at ease and smile, especially our 1 yr old son. He was very efficient, professional and friendly. We viewed the beautiful images promptly, without any pressurised selling. Can't wait to receive the photos. Thanks for the great photoshoot!
We had our family portraits done many years ago with Kaushik Bathia and we loved them so we have now returned again this time with new additions to the family. On all the occasions we went Kaushik Bathia has taken care of everyone and made everyone laugh and smile especially the children in order to get the best photos.
We had a great experience with our family photoshoot. The photographer made everyone feel relaxed and comfortable, which really shows in the final photos. The images are natural, well-captured, and beautifully edited. We’re all really happy with the results and would highly recommend.
What we offer
Pet photography in Enfield
At the animal's level
Sessions are kept short and shot at the dog's own eye level, built around attention span rather than a list of poses.
Cats and small animals
Cats, rabbits and nervous or elderly animals are photographed at home, where they are already settled.
Why choose us
Pet sessions that follow the animal
The animal sets the length of the session. When a cat has given fifteen good minutes, we stop, because carrying on only produces pictures of an annoyed cat. We watch each animal's body language and give it a break when it needs one.
Close details, such as paws, whiskers or an older dog's grey muzzle, are taken alongside the full portraits, because owners treasure them. Feeding a dog a little later than usual on the day makes treats considerably more interesting, though water should never be restricted for a session.

Enfield parks and dog rules for a pet session
For a dog, we would pick open ground well away from traffic, such as Trent Country Park, reached from Oakwood and Cockfosters stations, and keep to whatever lead rules apply there. Each place below links to its source; in enclosed gardens such as Chase Green Gardens and the walled garden at Forty Hall, Enfield Council's order requires dogs to stay on a lead. Travel from Northwood is set out in your written quote before you book.
- Forty Hall Estate grounds. The Forty Hall Estate is a 273-acre Grade II listed landscape with an ornamental lake, medieval fishing ponds, a walled garden and one of the oldest Cedar of Lebanon trees in England. 1
- Trent Park House of Secrets. The mansion at Trent Park, the base of a Second World War surveillance project, now houses the Trent Park House of Secrets museum, which opened in July 2026. 2
- Chase Green beside Enfield Town (EN2 6SD) is a 3.44-hectare remnant of the Enfield Chase hunting park and the first public open space in Enfield, with a fragment of oak woodland and the Cenotaph Garden war memorial at its southern end. 3
- Enfield's parks. Enfield Council lists parks with toilets including Broomfield Park, Bush Hill Park, Forty Hall Park, Oakwood Park, Town Park, Trent Park and Whitewebbs Park, and publishes a map of its Green Flag parks. 4

Good to know
Pet Photographer in Enfield, FAQs
Yes, gladly. Owners and pets together make some of the most touching pictures. Step into the frame with your pet, or stay just out of view to keep them calm and looking our way.
Thirty to forty minutes of photography, with the walk to the ground on top, which matters in a park the size of Trent Park. We agree a meeting point near the parking rather than deep inside it, so the clock starts with the dog still fresh. Most dogs give their best work in the first ten or so minutes, and everything loose and daft comes after that.
Yes, and gently. Rescue cats from London are always welcome, and we never rush them. For a nervous cat we would suggest photographing at home, where it is already settled, and we begin only once it is relaxed. A timid animal shows its real character through patience, never pressure.
Yes. Enfield is a north London borough and we drive over from Northwood for it, along with Southgate, Palmers Green and Winchmore Hill. Home visits suit cats, rabbits, and dogs that are nervous or elderly, since an animal photographed in a room it already lives in settles far quicker than one taken somewhere unfamiliar. Light comes with us, so a dim hallway is not an obstacle.
You receive an edited gallery that shows your pet's character. You can then pick prints, frames or canvases to display at home in London. The turnaround is quick, so you see the pictures soon after the session.
Serving Enfield
A pet photographer near Enfield
Pet sessions take us across London within about 20 miles of Northwood, and Enfield sits around 15 miles from our Northwood base. It sits close to Barnet and Haringey, which we cover too.
Trent Country Park covers about 320 hectares and is reached from Oakwood and Cockfosters Underground stations, while the wider Forty Hall Estate has 273 acres of listed landscape around its ornamental lake. Enfield Council's 2025 Public Spaces Protection Order requires dogs to be kept on a lead in places including Chase Green Gardens, the walled garden and front lake at Forty Hall and the Trent Country Park Water Garden, so off-lead frames need open parkland.

Trent Park earns its place for dogs on practical grounds rather than picturesque ones. The A10 Great Cambridge Road carries fast traffic across the borough, and the park's interior sits far enough from all of that for a dog with unreliable recall to come off the lead without the session turning into a risk assessment. Where the lead has to stay clipped we use a long line, keep it slack, and take it out afterwards, which is much less obvious in the finished picture than most owners expect. Coat colour decides where we stand more than anything else does. A black dog in woodland shade is two dark things with nothing between them, and no amount of exposure repairs that, while the meadows at low sun put a bright edge along the spine and the separation arrives for free. Pale and sandy coats have the opposite trouble out in the open at midday and do better under the canopy. The lakes are a mixed blessing. An open sheet of water behind a dog gives a background nothing else in the park can match, and it also gives a dog an excellent reason to stop listening, so we take those frames early and let any swimming happen once we have finished. Nervous animals and old ones we would keep away from the park altogether. A garden the dog already uses, photographed low down at chest level, produces a calmer set and a shorter day than any amount of open space.
