No More Home Sweet Home: Why I Dropped Backyard and In-Home Sessions – Bark & ​​Gold Photography

You may have heard the cliché “fence-sitting gets you splinters.”

Well, there I was, straddling that darn fence desperately trying to keep those pesky splinters from invading my you-know-what, fully knowing in my gut that it was time to make a bold decision.

I needed to say goodbye to backyard and in-home sessions.

Implementing that decision was a real tug-of-war for me. I’m talking about the extra jerky, rip-your-arm-out-at-the-shoulder-socket, WWE Smackdown kind of tug that your pup delivers when playing with his Mammoth 5 Knots. I grappled with the conflicting desires to accommodate everyone’s needs while pursuing a path that

5 Ways Fresh Air Helps Make the Most of Your Dog’s Photography Session – Bark & ​​Gold Photography

As a professional dog photographer, capturing beautiful and lively images of your dog extends far beyond simply having the latest camera or editing software. It’s also about understanding and capturing the unique personality of him.

One way to bring out that personality is by allowing your dog to get fresh air every day.

Although encouraging your dog to get out in nature prior to his session may not be the first recommendation you may think can improve his portrait experience, the benefits of taking in a breath of fresh air extend far beyond the advantages it provides to his overall

Husky dog ​​photoshoot in Middlesbrough by Hairy Dog Photography

Today found me in Middlesbrough taking photographs of Bruce the Husky. Dog portrait sessions quite often end up with other family members involved and today was no exception. They all said it; “Kids and animals son, just say no!”. But I didn’t heed the advice and shooting dogs and children is just huge amounts of chaotic fun! You can see Bruce’s full gallery, along with other dog photo sessions HERE, in the Hairy Dog Photo gallery.

First up is a Christmassy type of portrait – I have to admit that I pulled

Upcoming work for Hairy Dog Photography in the North East

Commercial dog photography in Newcastle and the North East, plus exciting tie-in with the new Grooming Parlor!

Just a couple of exciting bits of news to share this morning. Commercial and advertising work is something I’ve done a little bit of in the past, so I was delighted to get a call from Jo at Newcastle based professional movers and storage expert, Quicksilver.

Jo’s beagle Rio is very much an office dog and the plan is to get a good range of photographs of Rio climbing around Quicksilver’s new, branded boxes, then plastering the huge images all over their new

Kasper and I had a fantastic, muddy, slippy woodland walk today. It’s been at least a week since I took any photographs of the poor dog, or even sat him down for a portrait session. This neglect had to end, so we sallied forth into the north east countryside for a pet portrait session (formerly known as a ‘walk’).

This is what Hairy Dog Photography does best – I love nothing better than

Jamie Emerson runs Hairy Dog Photography in the North East of England covering Durham, Newcastle, Darlington, Northumberland and beyond. Bespoke pet photographer, specializing in outdoor, lifestyle portraiture.

Almost every time I step out for a dog walk…

…I’ll have a camera of some kind with me. Sometimes I’ll also have high hopes of a decent photograph but usually it’s purely a force of habit. Today looked ‘interesting’ outside – huge rolling fog banks drifting through hollows, causing trees to suddenly loom up before being immediately wreathed in mist again.


So rather than the usual point and shoot, or small DSLR
