Hi, I'm Diane, your photographer
Simply put — I love dogs
I'm a Certified Trick Dog Instructor (CDTI), dog first aider, and professional photographer. I live in Winchester with my partner and our two pups, Dougal the Scottie and Deedee the Irish Terrier
I'm on a mission to create beautiful artwork of happy pooches that you will treasure forever. I believe that each pup is different and needs a unique approach.
Thanks to my knowledge of dogs, I'm confident that we can create stunning artwork of your best friend, no matter how excited, anxious, or goofy they are.
Are You Ready To Celebrate Your Best Friend?
We know how much your pooch means to you and how tricky it can be to capture their unique personalities. That’s why at Dogs in Focus Photography, we specialize in pet portrait experiences that highlight the distinctive character and charm of your furry friend.
Our favourite moment is revealing your portraits to you for the first time. It’s then that you see your pup’s personality turned into a beautiful piece of art. As the artwork graces your home, it’ll become even more treasured with time.
FAQ
My pup can’t be off-leash? Is that ok?
Yes! Most of the pooches that I photograph remain on lead throughout the entire session for their safety. I can even capture some action shots with a special long line...all while keeping your pup safe and sound! The leash is removed through the magic of Photoshop from the final images.
My pup is super nervous of / reactive towards other dogs, where can we go?
No problem, if you need some privacy for your session, I am more than happy to hire an enclosed field that we will have all to ourselves. As an owner of a sensitive, sometimes reactive dog, and a former Training Assistant at Sussex County Dog Training, I am sure I can make your pooch feel at ease.
What if my dog doesn’t sit?
It’s ok! I can guarantee you that I have worked with pups that were more challenging than yours! I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to create engaging images no matter what the obedience level of your pooch is.
What if I have multiply pooches who won't sit together?
Believe it or not, this is not a problem at all. I can take individual images of each pups and merge them together at the editing stage.
Do I have to be in the images too?
You don’t HAVE to be, but I recommend it! There are more ways that you can be in the portraits than just a traditional sitting with your dog and smiling at the camera. We can create images that tell the story of your relationship in a fun and natural way. Remember, you don’t have to purchase any images that you don’t LOVE - so why not give it a try and trust me? You just might be pleasantly surprised!
Can I bring extra dogs or humans to our session?
In order to set your session up for success, please don’t. We want a nice and calm vibe during our session and extra dogs or extra humans can ramp up the energy level making everything too exciting. The only exception is if you have a legitimate pack and you need an extra set of hands to help manage the hounds!
What if it rains? What if I need to reschedule?
We will try our best to hold our session at the agreed upon date and time, however, sometimes Mother Nature has other plans and we will definitely reschedule. If you or our furry model is feeling under the weather, kindly let me know we need to reschedule as soon as you realize.
What about harnesses and head collars, can those be removed?
I cannot guarantee that I will be able to remove harnesses or gentle leaders from your final image. If your pup usually walks in a harness or a head collar, I recommend using those to walk them to the session and in between locations, but if there is any way to have them in a regular flat collar that is ideal. If you have a sighthound or other breed that can easily slip out of a flat collar, martingale collars are ok and preferred over harnesses.
Where should we have our session?
We will discuss session locations during our pre session consultation. Don’t worry! I have a LOT of location options and I can help you determine the perfect one for the look that you are wanting to create and where your pup will be the most comfortable.
How much will I spend?
The session fee for Queen Elizabeth Country Park is £50, which turns into a Product Credit if you spend £950 or more.
As this is a highly customised experience, clients spend only what they are comfortable spending. Most clients spend between £600 and £1500 on their products.
