The Approach
Location-Based Portraiture
Relaxed, Bespoke Sessions
Dogs. Architecture. Landscape
DOGS / PLACE is a contemporary photographic practice specialising in bespoke portraits of dogs within architecture and landscape.
Working across Derbyshire and the Peak District, I create considered, natural portraits that explore the relationship between dogs and the places they inhabit.
Each session is shaped by the individual dog, the character of the location and the available light. Rather than relying on elaborate staging or familiar photographic conventions, my approach emphasises observation, composition and authentic moments.
The result is a collection of distinctive photographs, created to be enjoyed as individual works of art.
Bespoke photographic sessions from £295, including an archival fine-art print.
Museum-Quality Prints
Every portrait is produced as a beautiful fine-art print, using premium papers chosen for their rich tones, detail and texture.

Handmade In-House

Kind Words
I had some lovely photographs done by Dan at Bolsover Castle. He captured her just right. I'd highly recommend him to anyone wanting special photographs of their dog to treasure.
CYNTHIA SMITH
Dan took some lovely photographs of my dog Ronnie, capturing her personality amazingly in a stunning Peak District setting. He has a great eye for dog photography and made the most of the surroundings to create really special images of her.
SALLY BAWDEN
10/10! I would recommend Dan to anyone looking to get some lovely pictures of their dog. He takes a lot of pride in what he does and was so patient, really taking his time to get the most beautiful pictures. Amazing! Otis loved every moment.
