What a great day

What a great day! My beagle isn’t the most obedient, as he is totally obsessed with food, but Graham made us all feel so comfortable, despite having to do things quite a few times.
The photos he has captured are amazing and I can’t wait to bring them home.
Thank you again, you have captured moments we can cherish forever

Dogs and cat photo session

We had a great photo session with Graham. It was a bit of a challenge with our 3 which included a Cockapoo puppy and a Maine Coon cat. Graham was very patient and he got some amazing photos in the studio and in the woodland.

A fantastic day - making lasting memories of our hounds.

What a long, but fantastic day, with some brilliant photos as lasting memories of our hounds.

Despite it being the peak of a heat wave, Graham made sure both humans and hounds were comfortable. The studio was in a lovely location and the outside photoshoot was in adjacent woodland. Graham knew his spots, and how to get the best from the dogs, even if this did mean a few extra treats.

While Graham did the necessary editing we popped to the Donkey and Buskins Pub, just down the road for a bite of lunch (Very dog friendly).

Then we returned for the impossible task of picking our favorite photos and deciding how best we wanted them presented. Throughout this process Graham was helpful and informative, there were no pressure sales and we were given ample time and space to consider the options.

Oscar and Enzos at Dogodog

What can I say? Myself, wife and our dachshunds Oscar and Enzo met Graham today for a photo shoot and I have to say it couldn't have been any better. Oscar and Enzo loved meeting Graham and even though Oscar suffers with anxiety he was totally at ease. We had several pictures taken in different settings and the outcome was shocking. Graham is a true professional and his love for animals stands out. Thank you very much for our wonderful experience and we are looking forward to receiving our products

Fantastic experience resulting in gorgeous images

We had a lovely morning having our 'character' of a dog photographed.. He really did test Graham's patience im sure.. but he was so good with Arlo, allowing him time to settle into the shoot.. the facilities are lovely and the surrounding woodland is splendid! Such a great place to capture the beauty of our spotty boy. We cannot wait to get our order!

A pawsome day!

My three mini sausage doggies and I had the most amazing and special day with Graham, on our "Indoor and Outdoor" photo shoot this past week! Graham took the time to get to know Phoebe, Frank Junior and Charlie before we set to work on the studio portion of our session, sharing treats and fuss and generally making friends 🙂 Graham was so patient with my fidgety and excitable trio, two of whom are very nervous and it was lovely to see them warming up to him and trusting him as our session progressed. The four of us were made to feel so welcome and we had so much fun. The viewing session on the day was also amazing and I was blown away by the results! An incredible set of photos that beautifully tell the story of our special day. I'm now patiently waiting for our presentation box of prints and our special wall art that I have ordered, I loved the results so much! I highly recommend Graham and Dogodog Photography! A totally pawsome day with my precious pups 🙂🖤🤎🐾✨

Have a great day with your dog and Graham

We had a lovely day with Graham. The photos were really amazing and I couldn't believe how emotional I felt upon seeing them on the 'big screen', they were doggy photos for goodness sake! He is so patient and obviously loves his work with the dogs. If you want a fantastic picture of your furry friend this is the place to go.

Graham was brilliant

Graham was brilliant with Max, and made sure he was comfortable and settled before starting the photoshoot.

We started indoors shoot with various backgrounds and platforms, allowing a variety of different photos to be taken. We loved seeing both the more serious shots, and those showing Max's goofy side! Graham was great, making sure Max stayed happy without, and giving him breaks to sniff around the workroom when needed.

We then went for the outdoors photos in the local woodlands, getting some posed and some natural shots. Some of our favourites are from here, showing a spaniel in its natural habitat - the muddy outdoors!

We can't thank Graham enough for the fun we had on the day, and the amazing photographs we received. We can't stop showing everyone, and would recommend him to anyone wanting some professional photos of their furry family to keep forever! Max's canvas now hangs in pride of place in the front room and we couldn't be happier.

Graham is so welcoming and friendly…

Graham is so welcoming and friendly that we all felt at ease. He was amazing at getting our dog to trust him, before taking the incredible photos. It was such a lovely day, with a top notch recommendation for pub grub while we waited for our photos!

Amazing photos and experience

Graham was incredible with our dog! Everything went seamlessly from the very first message, and we thoroughly enjoyed the walk/session through the woods. The breathtaking photos were irresistible—we knew we had to have them. Despite our request for a non-standard package, Graham effortlessly adapted to our wishes and exceeded all expectations. To top it all off, he personally delivered our order just before Christmas, adding a truly special touch. We wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book Graham again!

Would have been 5 Stars

We took our new rescue dog Honey to Dogodog Photography and found Graham to be very friendly with us and more importantly with Honey. The studio area was relaxed and then we went into a woodland area for some outside shots. This was lovely and we found Graham very easy to chat to as we walked along to areas he felt were right for Honey’s photo. After a while we returned to the studio where Graham started to sort out our photos and we went and sat on a grassed area under a tree, (there was an option of a nearby pub but we didn't fancy that). On returning Graham took us into a room to view the photos. There were so many to choose from but neither of us felt rushed to make our choices. Graham explained the choices of packages we could purchase and we made our decision.
The only issue we had was the time taken to get our photos but this could well have been out of Graham's control. When we did get them we were both extremely happy and we're looking forward to showing them off.
All in all we would definitely recommend Dogodog Photography/Graham to anyone looking to get some excellent photos of their four legged friend.

Excuisite photography, lasting memories, can't wait to go back!

We had a fantastic day with Dogodog Photography! Graham was friendly, professional and clearly passionate about his craft. His tremendous sample shots were displayed beautifully all over his studio, simply stunning photos of dogs of all shapes and sizes. He was confident and playful with our labrador immediately, made us feel welcome and at ease. He explained the process for the day and how the timings would work. We had our studio session first. Graham had treats on hand for positive reinforcement during the shoot, and great props for our dog to work with. He was incredibly patient with our lab as he explored the different shots, having a squeeky toy on hand to get his attention for the best pictures. Graham was calm and confident, and knew his craft well, so my husband and I were able to relax and enjoy the experience too. After the studio, we moved onto the woods where our dog was free to explore the area safely. Graham had dedicated spots within the woodland that he knew would produce beautiful final pictures. He paid close attention to the changing light and adapting certain shots accordingly. Graham and I chatted the entire time; he spoke about his journey into photography and we shared different tails about our dog. It felt more like a lovely day out. Once the shoot was finished, Graham recommended a delightful local pub where we enjoyed some lunch. Once the shots were developed, we were welcomed back to the studio and sat in a comfy nook to 'ooh' and 'aah' at the shots Graham had achieved. It was so hard to pick a final selection, all of the pictures were stunning! Graham had so many printing and digital options available, we were spoilt for choice! We cannot wait to receive our prints, and will absolutely be revisiting Dogodog in the future! If you're looking for a competent, patient, passionate dog photographer who will not only give you gorgeous photography, but a friendly and professional experience, please get in touch with Graham at Dogodog Photography.

Inside and out photoshoot experience

Fantastic day spent with Graham, at his dog friendly and warm welcoming studio. Upon arrival a warm greeting was given to me and my dog! Graham also respected my pre warning given through previous conversations had to organise the shoot that my dog could be protectiveness of me. Due to this the introduction was smooth sailing and he had won my dog over with tempting snacks and respect.

After a little tour, we headed into the studio where we had a smashing 1 hour session using varied backgrounds, props and poses. Graham used all his knowledge to get my dogs best side (using hand signals, sqweekers and vocal sounds). Little breaks and snack rewards helped make it fun.

Once complete we headed outside for the woodland shoot. This is great, a huge space where nature and dog get to explore and play with what’s around and get some fantastic shots . Graham is not afraid of mud or bushes to achieve the best angles for you and pooch. All while keeping you and dog comfortable and easy conversation.

Once shoot complete, discussed next step and advised on a wonderful pub 2/3 mins down the road while we waited for our images to be reviewed and prepared for us to see. Upon returning another friendly greeting given and preview of images was gone through: this is the difficult where you choose the pictures you like.

Precise and well informed information was given in what products/packages are available. They also have samples for you to see to gauge what size, materials and display options you may like. At this point Graham went above and beyond working with me on what I liked/ wanted to come to a fair agreement.

Payment was agreed and forms signed, all well explained written and verbally to me. Conversation continued to follow throughout even after payment, there was never any rush to get us out the door.

I am looking forward to seeing the final products upon collection soon. I highly recommend this experience to all dog lovers!

Amazing experience

What a day we had. I turned up with 4 dogs and 2 grandchildren. Graham was wonderful with us all, he was gentle and funny with the dogs, understanding with the children and professional with me. He did a studio shoot and an outside walk and shoot. He helped re-position the dogs very regularly as two of the 4 were on 3 months old. I haven’t yet received my order, but I’m so happy with the shots I have ordered. I can’t wait to show them off to everyone. Thank you for such an amazing experience.

Very welcoming and extremely talented!

I had a wonderful day with my 6 month old puppy; Graham was so patient and accommodating when she struggled with staying still, and I never felt rushed or under pressure. The photos are absolutely beautiful, I’m so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him.
