The photographer

Hi, I’m Sophie.

Welcome to my website and thank you for visiting. I have had a real passion for taking photographs from a very young age and up until the last couple of years it has always been just for fun, often photographing my partner and two children, family and friends and pets.

I spent most of 2023 being taught so much creative knowledge by the wonderful Angela De Groot, whom I owe a lot for providing me with so much support along my journey into professional photography - Thank you for giving me so many skills, support and advice that I find myself considering in everything that I capture.

My biggest passion lies in pet photography, capturing the unique personalities and special moments of beloved animals. I especially love documenting the candid interactions between pets and their owners, highlighting the joy they bring to each other’s lives. Whether outdoors on a forest walk or in a cozy home setting, I’m always drawn to photographing animals in their natural environments. Alongside pets, I also enjoy capturing wildlife, nature, and cherished moments with my own family.

Commonly asked questions

Quick answers on sessions, pricing and turnaround. Can’t see what you need? Just get in touch.

Where do your photo shoots take place?

I travel throughout Dorset, offering versatile shoots tailored to you — a scenic outdoor session at the beach or woodland, or on location at your business or home. I specialise in on-location photography and don’t currently offer a studio service.

How much will my photo shoot cost?

Cost depends on the type of photography, location, duration and your specific requirements. I offer tailored packages for everything from corporate headshots and pet portraits to events and property. Get in touch for a personalised quote that fits your needs and budget.

When will I receive my edited photos?

I take great care over every image and typically deliver your final photos within 28 days of your session. If you have a tighter deadline, just let me know and I’ll do my best to accommodate you.

How long will my photo shoot take?

It depends on the session. A corporate headshot typically lasts about an hour, while pet portraits may take a little longer so your furry friend feels relaxed. Events and property shoots can run several hours. Every session is tailored so we’re never rushed.

What locations do you cover?

I currently cover most of Dorset including Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Wimborne, Blandford, Wareham and the surrounding areas.

We had such a wonderful experience with Sophie. She was incredibly kind, welcoming, and friendly from the moment we arrived. She captured the most beautiful, completely natural photos of our black lab — images we’ll cherish forever. She’s exceptional at what she does.

I first met Sophie at a business networking event that I was attending with my dog, Dougie. They made firm friends and we booked in for our first dog beach shoot with her. We have had multiple photo shoots with Sophie since. She is a lovely person, an amazing photographer and always listens to your ideas, even when you suggest a Christmas fancy dress beach photo shoot for your dog 🤣 ❤️

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! Photographing a litter of puppies can’t be easy, but you captured them perfectly. Your patience, professionalism, and obvious love for animals made the entire session enjoyable and stress-free. The quality of the images exceeded all our expectations, and we were amazed by how many beautiful moments you managed to capture. If you’re looking for a photographer who is talented, creative, and wonderful with animals, I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for giving us such stunning memories of our puppies that we’ll cherish for years to come!

Sophie did the most amazing photo shoot with my 3 dogs. She is so patient and able to capture the true character of the dogs in the most beautiful way. She had her work cut out for her dealing with a bunch of young labradors being a 1 year old, 2 year old and 10 week who wanted to kiss her every time she was on the floor (which was 95% of the time) but somehow she still produced stunning photos of them all. I cannot recommend her highly enough so if you want a fantastic experience with amazing results this is who you need. Thanks again for a wonderful experience for us all.

Sophie was amazing from start to finish. She was incredibly patient, friendly, and clearly understood how to make dogs feel comfortable and relaxed. The photos captured my dog’s personality perfectly. The quality of the images are outstanding and I will treasure them forever. Thank you ❤️ I highly recommend Sophie to anyone looking for a talented and professional dog photographer! Can’t wait to book another shoot 📸
