Pet portraits are dull right? They don't have to be... Think different and use the power that a change in your point off view can achieve.

The images in this post were of a lovely little dog called Roxy whose owner fancied a series of images/portraits of her. They had no idea what they wanted, but they knew for certain that they didn't want the same old stuff you see with so many of these 'specialists' in pet portraits. As we are located just outside Winchester in Hampshire (UK), there isn't a great deal to choose from in the local area.

Those of you who have followed us for a while will know we don't do 'specialisms' simply because it is an incredibly quick and easy way to become stale and dull. Creativity is key to us, whatever our subject.

As a result, we draw on ideas, concepts and approaches to our work, from across the range photography commissions we receive.

The style of these images were drawn form an advertising shoot we did. The client loves them, we totally enjoyed doing them and they now adorn an entire wall in their barn conversion. The power of a simple change in your point of view can be quite dramatic.
