A dog is never just a dog. They are a best friend & the heart and soul of the home. Whether you have a lively puppy or a old loyal companion, let’s celebrate them together with their own photo adventure.

“We had a great time at our photo shoot today, despite the miserable weather and the dogs loved all the attention. Even our springer, who is usually very nervous of strangers, spent the morning wagging and jumping at her new best photographer friend!”

FAQS

  • Once you decide whether you’d like a Forest, Beach, Mountain or Urban dog portrait session, I’ll then offer my recommendations. Ultimately we work together to pick the best location for your dog.

  • Of course, it’s your adventure shoot. We’ll chat in advance about what you’d like to achieve from the adventure shoot & we will then work to that plan. The shoot can be all about your dog, incorporate a few of you with your dog or focus on the humans with a little sprinkling of dog photography.

  • I don’t expect your dog to be anything other than its awesome self. I work with your dog to capture them at their best. If they are excitable or a little on the shy side we can do the entire photoshoot on lead and then I can remove this in post production.

  • The portraits sessions start from £85 for a private session & collections have been designed to maximise value & to compliment different lifestyles.

    My Portrait Collections can be seen on the Sessions page. Full product guides can be requested prior to booking. I offer digital & wall art packages so you can pick the option that fits you & your budget best.

Gail’s Success

Kathy Lowry

On recommendation I booked Gail for an adventure shoot of my two girls (age 2 and 5) and our 10 year old Doberman in a location very close to our hearts. Gail was amazing, she was so patient, gentle and just let the girls take the lead. We had the photos very quickly and I was blown away by just how beautifully they turned out, they captured the bond between all three so perfectly, and you just know they had fun getting the photos taken. In the words of the 5 year old, "Gail was kind and lovely and we had so much fun, can we do it again?"

Belfast’s Outdoor Dog Photographer

The Backyard Photography Company

My favourite adventures have happened at home in Northern Ireland with my dog by my side. We’ve taken road trips to the Giant’s Causeway, climbed in the Mourne Mountains, battled the wind & rain at Murlough Beach and enjoyed quiet strolls together in more forest parks than I can remember.

My dog, Phoebe, comes alive when we are enjoying adventures together in our beautiful Backyard of Northern Ireland, that’s why I am an outdoor dog photographer. I create beautiful photographic artwork by combining relaxed walks with stunning scenery & incredible dogs.
