Fine Art Studio Dog Photographer in West Sussex
Located beside the peaceful Wey and Arun Canal in Loxwood, on the West Sussex/Surrey border, Life and Landscape Photography Studio offers a truly personal Dog photography experience.
With a thoughtful and patient approach, we capture the essence of your dog — their personality, their presence, and the moments that make them so special.
Each session is shaped around your dog’s comfort and personality, creating timeless portraits that reflect the beautiful bond you share. Art that tells your dog’s story and brings their light to your home.
“We recently had a photoshoot of our dog Mabel with Sara, and the photos are absolutely stunning. Sara has the ability to capture a dog’s personality, but also those sweet, meaningful moments that we love so much about Mabel. We would 100% recommend Sara. The photos and prints we received are perfect, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.”
— Lori & George
Because they make your house a home.
When their portrait lives on your wall, it becomes a quiet reminder of the love, joy, and companionship you share. Unlike images lost in the cloud, a printed photograph is always there—welcoming you home, making you smile, and turning a simple space into something deeply personal.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
This is the number one concern I hear and honestly? It's never a problem. Dogs are in a completely new environment with unfamiliar sounds and lights, so it's natural for them to be a bit excitable or nervous at first. That's why I spend the beginning of every session letting your dog explore, sniff around and get comfortable with me and the studio. We work entirely at their pace and I've got a bag full of tricks— treats, toys, and plenty of patience to capture their personality.
-
Before we meet, we'll talk about what makes them nervous and what helps them feel safe. On the day, there's no rush—they get time to adjust to the studio, we work at their pace, and breaks happen whenever they need them.

I know it might seem like a big investment, but the price covers so much more than you'd think! It includes all the time we spend together in the studio capturing your dog's personality, the editing process where I perfect each image, and a relaxed Viewing and Ordering Session where we'll go through all the photos together. You'll also receive a beautifully printed 10x8 photograph (printed by a professional lab, not your high street printer!) and you can choose between £75 credit towards framed products or 5 social media sized files - all included in the price.

I'm calm, patient and know how to work with all types of dogs—from nervous rescues to energetic puppies. I understand their body language, which means I can read what they're feeling and adapt the session to their needs. I have tricks to capture their attention and personality, but more importantly, what makes them special to you.

Dogs grow up so fast, and they deserve to be celebrated for the huge part they play in our lives. Professional portraits capture the bond you share and give you tangible artwork to treasure for years to come. Because they are family.
