Where a deep understanding of dogs and landscapes combines to create art.
Located in Devon we offer bespoke, natural light photography in stunning landscapes across the UK.
The Brief Story of Wolfie & Lil Photography.
I’m Lil, an internationally recognised, fine art dog photographer based in Devon, who photographs beautiful dogs all over the UK. But I’m also an award winning geoscience researcher, show dog handler, and dog sport competitor, which gives me a unique skillset when it comes to understanding both dogs and landscapes. In 2025 I took the decision to leave academia and launch my photography business, allowing me to share my love of being outdoors with dogs and my camera with you.
This is why I can guarantee three things about your portrait experience:
Your dog will take the lead. Everything is kept within their comfort zone and a combination of play, treats and social reward will be utilised throughout, to ensure they are happy and engaged throughout the session.
You will come away with stunningly retouched pieces of wall art, curated to match your home aesthetic.
Your session will be filled with fun facts about the landscape we’re in, I might not be actively researching anymore but my love of a periglacial landscape still remains!
FAQs
-
I believe the best images come from trust, not pressure. My sessions are completely dog-led, meaning no forced poses, and we will always keep stress and pressure to a minimum throughout a session.
Your dog’s comfort and wellbeing are always the top priority and we can create magic from the most simple of set up.
-
I’m based on the Devon/Dorset border, but specialising in wild, natural locations I do not limit my session locations geographically. Sometimes travel is required for those perfect beaches, forests, and moorland spots.
During your pre-shoot consultation I’ll help you choose a setting that suits your dog’s personality, your own personal limitations on travelling distance, and gives us the most magical light and backdrop.
-
Every session includes a pre-shoot consultation, a bespoke outdoor adventure in a handpicked location, and a fully guided experience tailored to your dog. After your shoot, you’ll be invited to a relaxed viewing appointment where you can choose from a carefully curated range of luxury artwork and digital collections.
Realistically, most clients invest between £500 and £2000 on their session and final artwork - but there’s no minimum product spend and no pressure to purchase. You’ll only ever invest in the images you truly love.
You can view my Portrait Collections (including investment details) on the [Sessions] page, and full product guides are available on request. Many clients come back time and again - not just for more photographs, but for the experience of celebrating their dog in such a meaningful way.

No problem at all! Safety always comes first, most of the dogs I photograph stay on lead and I use a little post-production magic to remove it from the final images. I will often offer a thin show lead for clients to use, but only if their dog is able to offer a steady position.
I prefer to use a loop lead (often used to show spaniels and terriers), as this style can be gently tightened to ensure the dog can’t slip out but won’t tighten further in the same way that a slip lead would should the dog move. BUT if your dog is uncomfortable in this set up we can work with their standard collar and lead, this is not a problem and I can just as easily remove this with a bit of editing magic.
