What Does Collette Do?

Capturing images of our cherished family members is so important to me. These photographs create lasting memories of their joy and love.

As pets age or pass, these images remind us of our shared moments and the happiness they brought.

My aim is to capture stunning photos that celebrate your pets individuality and preserves their spirit for years to come..

 FAQs

  • Not only can I provide you with exquisite images of your beloved pet, I also know the how important it is to capture the memories of them.

    With a deep understanding of animal behaviour, you can entrust me to provide a calm, relaxing and fun shoot that really helps their personality shine.

  • If you’re looking to go ahead with a shoot, just hit the enquire button and complete the form or send me an e-mail.

    From that point we can book in a date and time, choose a location and wait patiently for the fun to start. The photoshoot is required to be paid for up front to secure your booking.

  • The shoot itself will last anywhere between 1 and 2 hours - depending on how your pet handles the experience.

    I then aim to have the complete gallery to preview within 2 weeks, however this may vary and will be discussed on the day.

  • That is absolutely fine! With a little bit of photoshop magic, all leads and collars will be removed (unless you want them to stay), taking them back to their naked and wild side. All I ask is that no harnesses are used.

  • No worries, really its the same as above. All leads and collars can stay on if needed. Additionally if no tricks (sit, stay, lie down, paws up etc) aren’t known then we can take it slower and build up from what we’ve got to work with. I have worked with many dogs like this, patience and lots of snacks is key!

  • That is also not a problem. We can go to quieter locations or choose quieter times. Muzzles are welcome if needed in the shoots and we can take it nice and slow and work with your dog to still capture gorgeous photos.

    Even those with harder backgrounds or misunderstandings deserve their time to shine.

  • Dog Photoshoot - Jack Russell

    My little dog is a nightmare and is hard to handle at the best of times! Collette was professional and friendly throughout the entire photoshoot even with Lolly being completely distracted and uncooperative!

  • Dog Photoshoot - Collie

    Our mini bluebell shoot with Collette was absolutely fantastic. She was so patient (with our dog, me and my 2 little kiddos too), and so knowledgeable with the right angles and lighting etc, she even managed to get my little lunatic collie to put his ears forward for me

  • Equine Photoshoot - Black Background

    Collette provided a friendly professional service. She was very patient and encouraging as we tried to get the best positioning from my mare, and I'm thrilled with the photos that resulted from the shoot.”

  • Dog Photoshoot - Labrador

    Collette did an amazing job capturing the most stunning photos of our dog. She made the whole photoshoot really fun, and our dog absolutely loved her. She’s incredibly creative and found the perfect woodland spots for beautiful shots. We’ll definitely be recommending her to everyone.
