Outdoor dog photography workshops

My “Mastering outdoor dog photography” workshops are fun for both you and your dog

Have you been trying to take a photograph of your dog? Tricky, isn’t it.

But don’t worry because my fun and relaxed workshops are designed to deliver an immediate improvement.

This is real life dog photography - not in a studio and not in an enclosed garden with a dog on a lead, this is all-out dogs running free and happy with all the distractions and difficulties that can entail! This will teach you how to deal with all of it. It's not supposed to be easy but with a few tips and tricks you will get far more than you think.

I’ll show you easy-to-use techniques that you can start using straight away. You don’t need a posh camera. You’ll learn skills and ideas that work with any type of camera, even your mobile phone.

I run two workshops: Essential and Advanced skills, each lasting 3-4 hours and for up to 4 participants and their dogs (you do not need to bring a dog).

Here's what they cover:

Essential skills

• Making the best of lighting

• How to engage your dog and keep them interested

• The use of angles

• The importance of background, setting the scene and the rule of thirds

Advanced skills

• Shutter techniques – capturing dogs at speed

• Aperture techniques – creating beautiful portraits

• How to photograph more than 1 dog at a time

• How to photograph dogs with people

How much does it cost?

• £150 for both workshops - Essential and Advanced workshops in a day as part of a group

• £295 for a day’s one-to-one workshop, covering both Essential and Advanced. A day tailored to your exact requirements.

Dates -  (group workshops do not run in Dec/Jan/Feb). 1-1s run all year round.
