There are moments in dog photography that stay with you — not because of the light, the composition, or the setting — but because of the feeling.This was one of them. A quiet morning. Just me and three of the dogs I know best: Fen, Abi, and Eli.No fancy setup, just trust. And something simple: a paw in my hand. What followed became one of the most meaningful sets of images I’ve taken — because they captured what I like to call the power of a paw.

When I head out to events like local markets, country fairs, or dog shows, I bring more than just framed photos and a camera—I bring a story, an experience, and a celebration of the bond between people and their dogs. The two images here show the heart of my mobile setup, a space I’ve carefully designed to reflect the warmth, character, and emotion behind every image I create as The Outdoor Dog Photographer.
