I often meet people who tell me I could never get a good photo of their dog because it's not well trained. I tell them that I do a lot of work with completely untrained rescue dogs and puppies so it's definitely not a pre-requisite. Having said that, it's always a...

While I was away teaching the Zoomies Pet Photography Workshops I received an email from Morty and Archie's owner (we've never met, but we've known each other online for years as both dogs wear Ruthless Leather). I was very saddened to read that Morty had lymphoma at...

You know what I noticed recently? I don't photograph nearly enough Boxers. And then along came Chloe and all was right in my world again. We didn't have dogs when I was growing up (actually we had one but I was very young when he "ran away") but my Mum has always had...
