It has been quite a number of years since I last saw Jackie and her family. It was the Confetti Fields back in 2020. Click here to view the photos from that shoot. This time, Jackie wanted pictures of their new puppy, Fliss, and what a cutie! I was booked for a 40 minute shoot, and we got plenty of lovely photos. Jackie received 51 in total, and below is a small sample.

If you have a dog or other pet that you would like photographed then please get in touch using my contact page or send an email to info@mouseabouttown.co.uk. All pictures are included in the price of the shoot. Alternatively, give me a call on 07983 465414. I'd love to hear from you. Thanks.

Dudley

November 09, 2023 by gill thomas

Claire was given her 40 minute photo shoot by her friend, who purchased it as a gift voucher to say thank you for making her wedding cake. As with all my gift vouchers, there is no expiry limit to them, so client’s can relax and book the session at a time convenient to them.

I met Claire and her dog Dudley in Pittville Park last Saturday. It was a fairly chilly, overcast day, but the grey clouds complimented Dudley’s coat beautifully. Dudley was a very sweet natured little dog, all be it a little wary of the camera. We tried to incorporate some of the Autumn colour, as well as the stepping stones, which I suggested, as Claire wanted some photos of him looking clean before he started tearing around on the grass! The stones elevated him a little and kept his coat dry.

Cooper, Edie, Eddie & Luna

Jessica booked me for a 60 minute shoot with herself and her four rescue dogs. We met early on Sunday morning in Pittville Park, while it was still fairly quiet. It was saddening to hear the back stories about the dogs. I always find these animals so good natured, it’s difficult to understand the neglect people can inflict on them.

We had our work cut out getting the images that Jessica wanted. When one ran off in one direction, you could guarantee the others would run off the opposite way! It was great fun though, as always, and by the end of the shoot, we had all the combinations of dogs that Jessica had wanted. Below are just a small selection from the 45 images that Jessica received.

Pip & Mable

May 30, 2022 by gill thomas

Mable and Pip’s owner, Tim, booked me for a 40 minute shoot to capture some shots of his two dogs. I headed over to his house in Winchcombe and from there we took a short stroll to a nearby meadow. Mable and Pip were not the easiest subjects to photograph together, what with one being so big and the other being so small! Mable, being just a ten week old puppy, was also a complete tear away! Such great fun though and Tim was really pleased with the images I captured. Head over to my review page to find out what he thought about his experience with me. Below are just a small sample of shots.

Charlie

Last week, I met Emma, Charlie’s owner, at Crickley Hill for a 20 minute photo shoot. it was bitterly cold so we kept moving, which was inevitable given that Charlie is just a little puppy! Great fun, and ultra cute, we got some lovely shots of him! Below are a selection.

Milo

December 17, 2021 by gill thomas

Claire, Milo’s owner, was given this 20 minute photo shoot as a gift. I suggested we meet in Pittville Park as it is super dog friendly and provides plenty of space to run around. Milo was incredibly good natured and although he had trouble keeping still at times, always had a smile for the camera! Below are a selection of images from the shoot.

Dexter

May 26, 2021 by gill thomas

Dexter’s owners had been given their photo shoot as a gift voucher during last year’s lockdown. There is no expiry limit to my gift vouchers, which has been very welcomed given the pandemic.

We met at Lassington Woods, just the other side of Gloucester. The bluebells here always make for a lovely backdrop and we’re always very careful not to squash the flowers. Dexter was full of energy! We managed to calm him down with treats and his ball, both of which he loved. It’s always a great challenge to photograph dogs, and a great privilege too.

Sorin

July 27, 2020 by gill thomas

It has been great to be back outside working again after spending many months in lockdown. This 30 minute photo shoot at Ashton Court Estate was fun with a capital F! I love photographing animals and Sorin was no exception. A very handsome rescue dog, he enjoyed leaping around and posing for the camera, helped along by a couple of treats!

If you have a favourite pet or other animal you would like photographed then I'd love to hear from you! Just get in touch using my contact page or give me a call on 07983 465414. Thanks!

Monty & Ralph

February 07, 2020 by gill thomas

This full on 40 minute family shoot was great fun! With four children and two dogs, there was much running around for everyone involved as dogs headed in one direction and children headed in the other! The main focus was on the dogs, as one of them had cancer with only a few months to live. I had my work cut out to get all the shots Mum wanted, but she was very pleased with the final images.

Bailey

November 25, 2019 by gill thomas

This 40 minute photo shoot was given to Bailey’s owner, Greg, as a gift voucher. It was purchased late last year and, with no expiry limit, he was able to redeem it at a date and time convenient to him. The main focus of the shoot was Bailey, with just one or two shots of Greg and his partner. We made the most of the beautiful Autumn light and the reflections on the lake. Bailey was the perfect model!

Plato & Diesel

September 07, 2019 by gill thomas

Crickley Hill is always such a fabulous spot for a photo shoot. It has stunning panoramic scenes and plenty of space. It was on a rather windy day a week or so ago that I met Plato and Diesel, accompanied by their owner Nicola. Photographing animals is always one of my greatest challenges, but also one of my greatest loves. These two pooches were no exception. A delightful pair and quite clearly best friends.
