IβM CHARLOTTE
A passionate pet photographer who is on a mission to capture the unique essence of your furry companions.
As a pet photographer, I understand the challenges that come with capturing beautiful images of our beloved furry companions. It can be difficult to make them sit still, let alone pose and look good for the camera. However, I bring to the table a blend of patience with a unique background in video production, cinematography and my deep love for nature, I bring a fresh perspective to capturing the essence of your furry friends.
My sessions are not just about snapping a photo; they're about truly capturing your pet's personality and the special bond you share. I have an abundance of patience and can offer guidance on how to pose your dog for the best shots, ensuring that your session goes smoothly and that we capture the essence of your furry friend in a way that you will cherish forever.
I take the time to listen to your stories about the love and memories you share with your pet, and I strive to recreate that perspective in the photos I capture. I come from a place of compassion and kindness, aiming to make each session a relaxed, memorable, and confidence-boosting experience for both you and your pet.
Let's work together to capture your pet's unique personality and create beautiful memories together!
My Story
Growing up, my passion for animals was evident from a young age, as I dreamt of becoming a veterinarian. However, it was during my secondary school years that I found myself deeply curious and drawn towards learning about the emotional power of storytelling through visual media.
This curiosity led me to pursue a Bachelor of Science (BSc Hons) degree in "Film Production for the Advertising and Music Industries". During my time at university, I honed my skills in cinematography and learned the art of crafting compelling narratives through video. I also worked for BBC Flog It for a while.
Since graduating, I've had the opportunity to combine my passion for visual media with my love of animals. I now specialise in creating lasting memories of each pet's unique personality, ensuring that every session is a personalized and unforgettable experience.
If you're looking for someone to provide you with beautiful and lasting memories of your furry friends, you've come to the right place. Let's create some unforgettable memories together!
My goal is simply help you to
CELEBRATE YOUR best friend WITH OUR PET PORTRAIT PHOTO SESSIONS.
Meet my Best Friend
Henry
We brought Henry into our lives as a curious puppy, eager to explore the world around him. Over the years, he's grown into a smart, playful, and deeply caring companion. As an English Springer Spaniel, he's now 8 years old and brings joy and laughter to our days.
Henry has become accustomed to my camera and our adventures together. He's developeda a knack for posing and listening to my commands, but he's also clever enough to know when the shutter clicks and to release his pose. I've been using my background in video production to capture these moments, and my confidence in pet photography has flourished since.
Beyond being a cherished member of our family, Henry has played a significant role in my life. During a particularly difficult period, he was my constant companion, offering unwavering support and love. Our walks and explorations became a source of solace and joy, and it was during these times that I discovered my passion for photography, particularly capturing the essence of our furry friends.
Henry continues to be a source of inspiration for me, reminding me of the simple joys in life and the importance of nurturing meaningful connections. His unwavering loyalty and enthusiasm for life have deeply influenced my work, and I'm forever grateful for his presence in my life.
When I created Whiskers & Feathers, I envisioned a space where compassion, confidence, communication, and adventure could flourish. These core values are not just words to me; they are the guiding principles that shape every interaction and session.
I invite you to join me on this adventure, where we celebrate the joy and beauty of our pets. Together, we'll create lasting memories that capture the essence of your furry friend.
Core Values

Pets are more than just animals; they are cherished members of our families. Their unconditional love and loyalty inspire us to be kinder and more compassionate. I bring this compassion to every session, ensuring that every pet feels comfortable, loved, and cherished.

Like many, I started this journey with insecurities and doubts. However, as I explored the world with my own best friend, Henry, my confidence grew. Now, I aim to instil that same confidence in my clients. I want you to feel assured that your pet is in safe and capable hands, ready to capture their unique spirit.

Understanding your pet's needs and desires is key to building a strong relationship. During our sessions, I pay close attention to their body language, ensuring they are relaxed and comfortable. I also keep you informed every step of the way, so you never feel left in the dark. I believe in open and honest communication, making sure you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process.

Life is an adventure, and our pets are our trusted companions on this journey. They inspire us to step out of our comfort zones and explore new experiences. During the Covid-19 lockdowns, I learned the importance of mental stimulation for our pets. I embraced this challenge, finding creative ways to keep them engaged while adhering to the rules.
