Deborah Barnes Animal Photography

Why hire a professional animal photographer?

You may already have a "million" pet photos around your house.  Little furry friend pics displayed in prime locations -
dog pictures and cat pictures peppered through your social media, or a fun horse portrait as your wallpaper on your computer.
Maybe you even have a few animal photos of beasts you don't even know!  They just make you feel good!

A professional animal photographer, or pet photographer is a specialist.  And that's what I am, an animal portrait specialist!
I have only one focus - to give you a portrait that you can't stop looking at, that you will treasure forever.
I give very focused attention to lighting, composition & subject & I work the image in photoshop.
Result?  A gorgeous Fine Art animal portrait suitable for framing and showcasing.

I have 40 years experience photographing animals.  I understand an animal's body language.
I can see a dog's, horse's, or cat's personality as it unfolds at the other end of my lens.
My eye is always watching for that animal magic, and my finger is Fast to capture the moment!
It's a zen like thing.

As a woman, I am very aware of how difficult it is to have your photograph taken.
If you choose to be in the portrait as well, I promise to pay very special attention to make sure you are captured in a flattering way.
The light will be fabulous - and because I am a photoshop expert - you and your furry friend will look their picture perfect best!
