Dog-Led, Never Rushed

Every session moves at your dog’s pace. If they need time, space, or a break , we slow down. Calm comes first, always.

Artwork, Not Just Photos

Your portraits are thoughtfully designed to live in your home with guidance on sizes, finishes, and placement, so nothing feels overwhelming.

Personalised Guidance From Start to Finish

From planning to your artwork appointment, we’ll take care of everything together so you never have to wonder when to book or what to choose.

If you want to celebrate your dog in a way that feels calm, thoughtful, and true to who they are. You’re in the right place.

Happy Clients

“Paul took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for. On the day, the session was emotional, but the photos we ended up with are beautiful — memories to treasure forever.”

“Paul was extremely kind and patient with our elderly dog. We now have photos of our gorgeous boy that we will treasure.”

Jan Peldan

“Paul was very thoughtful in his approach and took time to understand our lifestyle and personalities (including the dogs!), so he could capture that in the photos. The dogs really enjoyed the experience — and we could not be happier with the result.”

Our Story


Paul Elby Photography was created to give dogs the time, care, and presence they deserve and to ensure your experience of capturing their story feels calm, supportive, and uncomplicated for the people who love them.

Time moves quickly. Dogs change quietly.
And it’s easy to keep meaning to do something meaningful… until the moment has passed.

That’s why every experience is designed to remove pressure and guesswork — from planning and pacing, to choosing artwork that truly suits your home. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is forced. And you’re guided gently at every step, so the process feels as considered as the final pieces you take home.

The result isn’t just beautiful portraits.
It’s artwork that feels honest, intentional, and deeply connected to your dog’s story.
