So you’re looking for an adventure instead?
What is it like to work with me?
-
Our chapter together begins with a simple conversation, a chance to get to know you and your beloved dog.
Every family is different, and so is every session. Each one is thoughtfully tailored to reflect your own unique story waiting to be captured.This is the chapter where I learn all about you and your beloved companion, their favourite trick, the place they love most, and the little moments that make up your everyday life together. It’s these details that help me tell your story in the most authentic, heartfelt way possible.
-
We let your dog.. be a dog. And you.. just being you.
Every session begins with time for your dog to sniff, explore, and get comfortable in their surroundings while we chat and take a relaxed walk together. From there, we’ll laugh, play, and enjoy the moment, I’ll be right there on the ground (with muddy knees!) capturing those little, genuine interactions… and probably being a treat dispenser.
Our session should feel less like a photoshoot and more like a walk with a friend — where your dog can simply have fun being themselves, and you can relax and enjoy the experience.
-
Our final chapter unfolds at your viewing gallery, where you’ll see your beautiful photographs for the first time and select your favourites. The collection is personally curated to suit your family and is a mix of formal group photos to natural documentary-like candids of you and your dog.
From here, you can choose how you’d like to bring your story to life through bespoke artwork designed to complement your home and style.
I’ll be there to guide you through every step, ensuring you never feel lost in the process. Each image is individually and thoughtfully edited with meticulous care and attention to detail — your story, handcrafted and defined, ready to be cherished for years to come.

I cannot thank Jocelyn enough for the beautiful photos she took of my boy Dio. Dio is currently in palliative care, and knowing that our time together is limited made this photoshoot incredibly emotional for us.
Jocelyn was so gentle, patient and compassionate with Dio. She made him feel completely comfortable and captured the most beautiful, natural moments between us. These photographs are something I will treasure for the rest of my life and will mean more to me than I can ever put into words.
Thank you, Jocelyn, for giving us these precious memories of Dio and for treating him with so much kindness and love. I am incredibly grateful.

Amazing photographer!
Very patient & understanding, an absolute magician getting so many stunning photos of what seems like a fairly average day - and capturing the dogs' personalities, fun, and love for each other & their human is an unimaginable skill!
The prints are highly recommended to get; the quality is 100%, the colours, and Jocelyn's quality control process. Will definitely get more photos with Gumtree Studios again!
— JennaBrilliant. We went for a sunflower shoot recently and the results were absolutely amazing.
Jocelyn is patient and kind to both human and dogs. My boys had a blast romping around the sunflowers while we chatted throughout. It was so much fun for everyone involved.
I’m going back to her again for a shoot near and dear to my heart shortly. If you’re looking for a photographer, look no further. Jocelyn is amazing.
— Frances Jocelyn was amazing in our session.
I felt incredible awkward going into it as I had never done something like this before and she made the comfortable and fun, she was also naturally fabulous with the dogs and understanding if they had silly moments without any judgment or frustration.
We’ll be back 200%
