Clara Allansson Dog Photography

Clara Allansson Dog Photography puts you and your dog first, bringing you along for an experience that you’ll remember every time you look at your artwork. Your dog will be photographed doing what they love most, exploring the outdoors with you, resulting in beautifully vibrant portraits captured in a woodland setting in or around Hampshire, West Sussex or Surrey.

My photography experiences get the best out of all dogs to create timeless printed artwork you’ll want to display at home. Perhaps you have a dog who is a ball of energy, or a timid dog who needs their own space, or you might have a dog who needs to stay on lead? Whatever your dog’s personality, I’ll work with you to let their best selves shine in front of my lens.

Put your trust in a photographer who has an eye for detail and delivers a truly unique experience. Tell me more about your dog and find out how you can have something special created by filling out the contact form below, or send me an email, and I’ll get back to you very soon.

Your Experience

  • You’ll want to know how everything works, so reach out and ask for a complimentary call. Tell me everything about your dog(s), and discuss potential locations and goals for your session. It’s the perfect chance to see if I’m the right fit for you and your dog.

  • You’ll join me for your photography session either early morning or shortly before sunset for the very best light of the day. Many clients say that the experience is just like a relaxed dog walk in the woods as we’ll stop at beautiful spots for some pictures, making sure your dog is rewarded lots along the way. They might just end up making a new best friend by the end of their session…

  • A few weeks later you’ll join me to view the results of your photography experience, either at my place, yours or online. Watching a slideshow of your gallery is an exciting and unexpectedly emotional experience - be warned, tears have flowed! You’ll make important decisions about what you’d like to take home while getting some expert advice about how best to display your memories.

  • Having viewed samples of all our beautiful products at your reveal, your bespoke artwork order will be finalised for production. Made from the finest materials right here in the UK, our curated range of products are the perfect complement to your chosen session images.

Who is Clara Allansson? Find out here!

I waited 23 years to meet my best friend Echo, a whippet, but my love for animals - particularly dogs and horses - goes way back to my childhood. I spent a lot of my days taking care of my own horses and finding any excuse to spend time with family members’ dogs. I couldn’t have my own dog until I moved into my own home, but he was more than worth the long wait. 

Echo has opened up my world to so many wonderful dog-centered activities as we have done so many things together: showing, obedience, lure coursing, swimming… way more than I can list here. In fact, I’ve been showing my own dogs at championship dog shows, including Crufts, for 8 years now and have been a dog show judge for 4. 

I now have two whippets as Tee joined our family in 2018 as I really wanted to give Echo a little brother, but Tee now towers over him! It’s not possible to imagine my life without my dogs - Tee especially wouldn’t ever let me, as he follows me absolutely everywhere! It’s safe to say that nowadays my life is completely filled with dogs, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. 

Echo and Tee have shown me the importance of capturing the moments you share with your dogs and freezing them in time. My photography aims to showcase the individuality of each and every dog, as well as the unique bond you share with them. Some of my most treasured images are those of me with my boys, so I want to provide you with your own special pieces that you can hang up and smile at each time you look at them. 

I’m so proud of my journey to becoming a dog photographer, and I’m extremely excited about what the future holds. My images first caught people’s eye on social media and people began to ask if I could photograph their dogs just like I captured Echo and Tee. Only a few years later, I am now a qualified Licentiate with the British Institute of Professional Photography (BIPP) and the Master Photographers Association (MPA) and have won multiple awards with some of the most prestigious photography organisations in the UK.
