What Our Clients Say
What a great experience watching Robert photograph by spoodle X Lulu. He is very professional, patient and fun to watch.Lulu can be rather nosy and easily distracted, but he had treats and squeaky toys and got some very special photos.I thoroughly recommend Robert to take special and memorable photos of your pet too.

Robert photographed my hungarian vizsla Hunter over in the Redwood forest and did an amazing job! scouted the location forst had tons of creative ideas and learnt all about hunter so he could capture the personality I know and love. I got an amazing mix of portraits, incredibly majestic photos that will end up on the walls and then just goofy funny loveable photos. would highly recommend Robert to anyone.

They say never to work with animals or children, but Robert makes the process seem so effortless! My dog is a complete nut job but with a fair amount of sweat & tears (mine), Robert was able to get some amazing shots of Ted! The incredible image Robert captured of Ted now takes pride of place in our family room to be admired by all.

Robert did such an amazing job getting shots of my 2 chihuahuas, one being blind and the other only a 3 month old puppy. He managed to capture so many gorgeous images regardless of how difficult taking photos of a blind dog and nervous puppy can be. We will definitely be booking in again when my puppy is older for a follow up shoot. 100% recommended his service - incredible value!

My pup is young and can be reserved around new people, especially men but not with Robert .. animals recognise a kind human and Robert is kind and very talented. I am thrilled with my photographs. I highly recommend Robert!

We contacted Robert when our boy Chester was diagnosed with cancer to capture some last memories and we are in love with the photos. Robert was so helpful, fitting us in last minute as we had limited time left with Chester. Robert was also so mindful of Chester, especially as he wasn’t 100% healthy and it was so evident how experienced Robert was. We sadly lost Chester this week, but we are forever grateful for Rob for giving us these precious memories of our ball obsessed pup. Thank you SO much!

Absolutely stunning work and lovely man.
We brought Poppy, our rescue dog, to see Rob at one of his free shoots in December.
He was fabulous with her, she really liked him (the treats helped) and she was very comfortable and happy!
The whole experience was wonderful.
The photos are stunning, we are over the moon and we can’t thank or rate Rob highly enough!

The highlights were being involved in the process as a family, assisting Rob to get the best out of our dog + cat.
And the amazing canvas that resulted. We love it and we didn't go with the intention of making a purchase but we couldn't resist.
It has pride of place on the kitchen wall and makes us smile every day.
Rob really does capture JOY.
Highly recommend.

It has pride of place on the kitchen wall. 🥰🐾

Our vets where advertising a free pet portrait session at the practice on Facebook and I decided to sign up for it on a whim.

Rob shortly contacted me to take some information such as what type of pets I'd like to be photographed and we had a nice chat about what to expect. I expressed some concerns that my two cats (a Bengal & Mainecoon) wouldn't behave since they are not the fondest of the vets. Rob explained all we can do is try and if we where not successful i was under no obligation to buy any photographs.

The day came and Rob and Nadia where amazing. We managed to get some really good photos of our girls together, they ended up being really relaxed and chilled out. It is clear Rob knows exactly what hes doing. Rob, his assistant Nadia, My wife and I all worked together in the photo shoot. It was a fun experience to actually be part of the shoot and at the end of the day we got some really good photos.

I took the opportunity to have my cats photographed on a whim because I didn't know then it was something I needed, now after seeing my two cats professionally photographed i know now otherwise.

I would whole hardheartedly recommend.

Would use his services again!

This is the first time I have used Rob, but it wont be the last.
Rob knew exactly how to get my Beagle to sit, lay down and be camera ready for every shot!
Thank you Rob for making us feel at ease through the whole shoot and for capturing our best boy so perfectly. We have photos that we will treasure forever

Rob came to the house for a photo shoot with our 3 spaniels. He was very patient with them as they are 13 years old, 8 years and a 4 month old puppy with varying degrees of concentration. Rob was here for over 5 hours until we were happy with the results. His tactics at keeping their attention was great fun for us allWithin a short time he sent us digital images and then our problems began as we had to choose from many high quality images.When we eventually chose which images we wanted Rob quickly fulfilled our order and we are thrilled with the results and would recommend Rob highly.

I cannot explain how overjoyed I am with my finished print of my lovely Dolly and Cooper. Rob was brilliant from start to finish plus extremely patient with my two very lively Jack Russell’s. I would not hesitate to recommend Rob for all of your pet photographs. He really does capture your pets character in a picture. Thank you.

I saw Robert's work in the press a while ago and thought the photographs were fantastic so when we decided to have some pictures taken of our dog, I immediately thought of him. It is very difficult to get our dog to sit still but Robert's skill and experience ensured that we got some fantastic shots. I was also very impressed at the way the shoot was organised ensuring that the pets do not get restless. I cannot recommend Robert highly enough, thank you!

After researching for a pet photographer in my area I came across Rob’s page. I loved the style of his photos as I noticed he captured real quality moments and character of each animal. I contacted Rob and he got back to me straight away. The next day Rob came to my house and we completed the photo shoot. Rob is very friendly and professional and his love for animals is class. I had the picture done for a present for my partner. When my partner opened his wrapped picture of our dog, my partner was brought to tears (of joy) he captured the perfect picture of Nelly. Thank you again Rob for your time, patience, expertises, and speed of the final product. We love our picture and hugely recommend Rob.... what a lovely experience it was and a huge pleasure to meet you.Melissa Turner x

Rob is a lovely guy and made both nelly and I feel comfortable. We did the photo shoot in the comfort of my own home and captured some amazing pictures, so many that I found it difficult to choose from. Thanks again Rob and will deffo be contacting you again in the future for some outdoor captures 😊

Had a great time at the photoshoot with Rob at my local vets. We took my cat Dixie to get some photos done and although cats aren't the most cooperative, Rob remained calm and professional throughout. He was very patient with Dixie and caught some beautiful shots of her which we absolutely loved. I can't recommend Rob enough!
Becky Whitaker

I can't recommend Rob highly enough. I have been wanting to get a portrait of my Staffy for quite some time now but to say she is boisterous would be an understatement. She will not sit still for a second so I was doubtful that Rob would be able to get any good shots. How wrong I was. I eventually chose this one as a present for my husband and we are both absolutely delighted with it.

Rob is fantastic, I came to him with the unusual idea of wrapping my dog van with images of my 4 dogs. Rob jumped at the opportunity and quickly booked me in for a photoshoot at his studio. My dogs each have their own issues but Rob was great at making them feel welcome, and working around their nerviousness. After the shoot, we worked with his re-toucher to perfect and size the images for printing on my van. Rob, being the perfectionist he is project managed everything including dealing with the 3rd party sign writer. The final result looks great and i couldn't be happier. I have and will continue to recomend Rob at the various competitons I attend. Thanks, Nathan.

Fantastic service. I wanted a professional shot done of my two greyhounds. Working with two dogs that are not used to a situation like this is quite challenging but Robert was very patient and put my dogs well being first throughout. I absolutely love the finished product, it's exactly what I wanted and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone. Will definitely use his services again when needed.

Well, I don't think there are enough words to describe how happy my daughter was with her pictures of Rex & Charlie! They are both reactive, rescue German Shepherds and yet Robert and his wife managed to make them feel really relaxed and took the most amazing photo's she could have hoped for. Now we have a lasting memory of our dogs which completely captured their character. We would absolutely recommend Robert and we will definitely be using him again in the future.

We have just picked our portrait up of Morgan no words can express how pleased we are with the finished product. When we arrived to have Morgan's picture taken I didn't anticipate the care ,devotion , patience and professional attitude Rob would give towards both Morgan and ourselves . Every single frame we had taken was to perfection . I would 100% recommend anyone to give Rob a try you will not be disappointed . Thank you so much Rob it's a portrait in a million .

Rob was amazing when I took my dog and cat for a photo shoot. It could have been really complicated but the results were brilliant. Wonderful photos of Hope, my dog and Fernando, my cat, but what was great was that Rob was able to take one of them both together. I had wanted one of them for so long and he made it surprisingly easy. A great pet photographer. Thank you Rob, have already recommended you to friends who love the results of my photos.

We have had two pet portraits done now by Robert, and they are truly stunning. Partly down to our cats Smokie and Meg being very well behaved and staying still for the camera! Robert knows how to capture their personalities and gave us plenty of beautiful shots to choose from.

Very professional, very skilled photography. The best part of the whole morning though was Robert’s concern over my dog Finlay. He was constantly making sure he (Finlay) felt safe and secure and was always happy and comfortable. Huge thanks Robert and a full recommendation to anyone as the outdoor shots we did at Lyme park are terrific!

We had a really good day with Robert. We went to a local country park. Robert was very relaxed and patient. He explained the best positions for Izzie to be in so that he could get some good shots, he took his time and ensured that she was happy and relaxed.The photos he produced were stunning, truely capturing the essence of Izzie.

Thank you very much for the photography session which we had with you and our beloved poodle, 'Thomas'.We thoroughly enjoyed the photo session. Your natural calmness put us all at ease from the start. We knew that we would have some great photos from the minute that you took the first picture. The anticipation that he showed made such a great picture, anybody who has a Poodle will know that they can become incessant in their pursuit of a ball, stick or Frisbee!A true professional who knows his job!Thanks you!Russ, Andrea and our lovely Poodle Thomas.
