For Maple Cross
Dogs, cats and small pets from Mill End, Sarratt and beyond are photographed with treats, play and plenty of time to settle. We photograph at your animal's eye level, so the pictures feel intimate and full of the character you know at home. We let cats explore the studio at their own pace, and only start photographing once they are curious rather than cautious.
We have handled shy cats, boisterous dogs and skittish horses, and know the trick to relaxing each. We have learned that patience, not force, is what gets the best from any animal in front of the camera.

What we offer
Head tilts, raised paws and mischievous looks, the small moments that make a pet portrait feel alive.
Your favourite images of your animal printed on canvas, made to be enjoyed around the home for years.
Cats, dogs and small furry pets from one household, photographed together or one calm animal at a time.
Local and experienced
We are patient with the pet who hides behind its owner at first, giving it all the time it needs to come round. We make the studio smell of treats and sound like playtime, so pets associate the camera with something they enjoy.
Your edited gallery is ready quickly, and we keep the turnaround fast so you are not left waiting. A studio backdrop can be clean and simple or richly coloured, whichever suits your animal's coat and character.

Of course. Anxious cats just need patience, and we have plenty. We keep everything quiet and calm, let your cat wander and sniff at its own speed, and wait until curiosity replaces caution before we start. Gentleness reveals a shy animal's true nature.
Regularly, and gladly. Those early weeks pass in a blink, so a puppy or kitten session holds on to them. We keep the mood gentle and playful, photographing in short bursts while the little one explores, capturing all the character of those first few months.
Yes. We photograph dogs, cats, puppies and small pets from Maple Cross and the surrounding area, either in our welcoming Northwood studio or outdoors at a park your animal already loves. Sessions are relaxed and built entirely around your pet's character and comfort.
Very. With twenty-five years behind the lens and thousands of sessions, we have photographed dogs, cats, horses and small pets of every age and temperament, many of them from Maple Cross. That experience brings a calm, quick and gentle presence that puts even anxious animals at ease.
Yes. Alongside your edited digital gallery, we offer fine prints, framed pictures and canvases, so your favourite images of your pet can go straight onto the wall. We are glad to help you choose sizes and finishes that suit your home.
