Brimpton, West Berkshire, Berkshire
My business operates from the family home in a purpose built studio within a redesigned, beautifully laid out garden, backing on to countryside. I offer a studio shoot with a very short walk from the studio to open fields, woodland and streams to achieve those all important action shots.

I can't thank Karen enough for such a fabulous photo shoot with my three dogs. I was given the photo shoot as a birthday present, something that had been on my wish list for a long time! From the moment I met Karen, I knew that it was going to go well because of her lovely friendly, relaxed nature, that the dogs also picked up on from the start. Nothing was hurried, and I felt that the whole morning was dedicated to me and the dogs. I can't recommend Karen highly enough. More...

Karen took some fabulous photos of our dog Pippa. I cannot recommend Karen enough.
Karen is very professional and managed to capture Pippa how we remember her.
...Sadly Pippa passed away recently, but thankfully we have the wonderful photos as memories and keepsakes of our wonderful girl, so glad we took the time to have Karen capture the fantastic images...You never know what is around the corner, so take time to have photos taken of your beloved pets - Karen is the one you should contact.....

I have now had two amazing photo shoots of my dogs with Karen. The first was in the summer whilst we were messing about in the river with my two older Labradors.
One of which is black which has got to be any photographer’s worst nightmare. Nothing was too much trouble and Karen made us feel totally at ease, setting up the photo shoot to accommodate both the still and action shots I wanted. Karen had to have her whits about her though, especially after a number of challenging jumping shots into deep water, the wake created by my dog nearly breeched the top of her waders!
The second shoot Karen did for me was at home in the garden with my 3 month old puppy. It was ideal to have Karen come to our house so that she could capture the puppy at play in a familiar environment. Karen spent hours laid out on the lawn while we enticed the puppy to play taking the most amazing shots which we now have proudly displayed in a wall mounted montage.
I hadn’t appreciated that there were different types of glass to use in picture frames until I met Karen, and I have to say the art glass she recommended displays the pictures off at their very best.
Karen is a very talented photographer and she manages to capture the essence of your pet as only you see them. I highly recommend Karen to anyone considering having their photos taken either with their beloved pet, or indeed on its own.

Karen asked me what I'd like from the shoot and made it happen.I wanted one photo of all three of my black Labradors capturing each of their personalities. What I got was far more than that, a lovely experience that was great fun.Karen made so much effort to really get a great selection, I fellove in love with several photos and would hesitate to recommend her.

Having a Karen Bennett photograph is about more than just the end product. The entire experience is something you're unlikely to forget and how she manages to capture the real essence of what she's photographing in a still is magical. She's a genius. :)

Karen managed to juggle a 3-part photoshoot involving myself, a rather shy colleague and my over-active 9-month-old puppy Sammy. The results were amazing, and we couldn't wait to upload them to our business and personal social media accounts and websites. Sammy looks as though he is posing for Crufts, but that's a result of Karen's professionalism, experience and a lot of patience! I have no hesitation in recommending Karen for either personal or business photography (whether human or animal!) and would encourage any dog owners to get in touch for an amazing experience. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I get to spend a lot of time with your much loved pets :)
What inspired you to start your own business?
My own dog Bugsy showed me the path to continue my journey around animals. I’ve spent a lifetime around animals, studying their qualities, mindfully watching their antics and getting them to trust me behind the camera. Pet photography is not just a job or diversion for me. It’s a real labour of love
Why should our clients choose you?
If you love your pets then I will too !
I think it’s sad when people don’t have time to enjoy their photographs, archived in computer files or fading memory banks. So I will encourage you to tell me what you most love doing with your pets and families. Then photograph the story of a day in your lives, at home or somewhere you love to visit. I tease out the unique personality of each pet, child and family member, relaxed and at ease in each other’s company. I especially love to create photobooks, integrating your treasured photographs with mine to celebrate a personal moment in time you can always cherish.
