Relaxed outdoor dog, horse and pet photography across County Durham, Darlington, Teesside, Newcastle and the wider North East.
I’m Sarah Johnson, the photographer behind Sarah Johnson Photography and North East Pet Photographer.
As a dog owner myself, I know how much our pets mean to us. They are part of the family, full of personality, and deserve to be photographed in a way that feels natural, relaxed and completely them.
Through North East Pet Photographer, I create beautiful outdoor portraits of dogs, horses and pets across the North East, capturing the connection, character and little expressions you never want to forget.
North East Pet Photographer is the dedicated pet photography side of Sarah Johnson Photography.
My love of photography began with my own dogs, and as anyone with pets will understand, they quickly become part of the family. They make us laugh, keep us company, get us outside, and leave pawprints all over our lives.
Through relaxed outdoor pet photography sessions, I capture the character, connection and little expressions that make your dog, horse or pet completely unique.
Whether you have a dog, horse or another much-loved pet, my sessions are relaxed, patient and centred around your animal’s personality.
You don’t need a perfectly trained pet or a dog who can sit still on command. Sessions can include movement, play, quiet moments, lead removal where suitable, and natural portraits in outdoor locations across County Durham, Darlington, Teesside, Newcastle and the wider North East.
From bouncy puppies to older dogs, nervous dogs and dogs who would much rather sniff than sit, sessions are planned around your dog and what makes them feel comfortable.
Natural images that capture the connection between you and your horse, whether you want portraits, detail shots or relaxed photographs at your yard or chosen location.
Beautiful, natural photographs of the pets you love, with a calm approach and plenty of patience so the session feels enjoyable rather than stressful.
