Immerse yourself in a full day of creativity, learning, and inspiration amidst two enchanting forest locations close to York. Over six unhurried hours together, we’ll explore the art of dog photography at its most beautiful, with time to pause for a relaxed lunch and thoughtful discussion between locations.

I’ll personally source and arrange two or three gorgeous dog models to join us, giving you plenty of opportunities to capture a variety of portraits and action shots in natural, beautiful settings.

Throughout the day, I’ll share my thought process and professional techniques, guiding you through how I see, shape, and capture each image.

Together we’ll explore topics such as creative camera settings, composition, working with natural light, and the subtle art of connection between photographer and dog.

You’ll leave not only with a collection of stunning images, but with the insight and confidence to create your own signature style.

If you wish, we can begin the day with an intimate café-based theory session, the perfect setting to enjoy a coffee while we discuss vision, preparation, and approach before heading out into the woods.

To book your place, simply purchase a session through my shop, then email annie@thephodographer.co.uk to arrange a date that suits us both.
