HELEN CARTER PHOTOGRAPHY

WELCOME TO HELEN CARTER PHOTOGRAPHY

Pet, Equine & Family Portraits in Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire & South Northamptonshire.

Why work with me?

Hello, my name is Helen. I am a lifestyle and fine art photographer specialising in pet, equine, and family portrait photography in Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and South Northamptonshire.

I have been photographing families since 2012 and, after some specialist training with an internationally renowned Photographer, I decided to branch out. Alongside my love of family portraiture, it is clear to me that our four-legged companions play such an important part in our health and wellbeing and are very much part of the family. I now specialise in Pet and Equine portraits and offer the opportunity for woodland or urban photoshoots to create beautiful wall art for your home for your four-legged companions.

While on location, I use a combination of documentary-style and some posed images and I will then artistically modify them post production to into your own masterpiece. I will take photographs as the situation unfolds and place myself unobtrusively around the action to anticipate what might happen next. I am passionate about capturing those special moments depicting the essence of each individual, family and animal.

I would also love to work with you to capture those special moments and preserve memories for your family by capturing the transition from childhood to adulthood in an easy going, fun way. Since your pet is a part of your family, they are often central to many family photoshoots.

 

Meet the family

Helen was brought up with cats, dogs, guinea pigs, a rabbit and a hamster. Her parents bought their first Birman when Helen was young, and Helen’s grandmother and mother went on to breed.

Helen has followed in that family tradition. Helen now has five cats. Four Birman cats and one black rescue. She breeds with two of her cats and is still a novice at herding cats and kittens, but thinks she has smashed it as a Crazy Cat Lady! Helen will happily chat with you about animals for as long as needed.

Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Photographer

Where shall we go for our photoshoot?

I will work with you as your photographer at an agreed outdoor location in Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and South Northamptonshire.

I have successfully used a variety of woodland venues for photoshoots, including Stoke Woods near Bicester, Shotover Country Park in Oxford, Wittenham Clumps near Didcot, Faringdon’s Folly Tower, Bagley Woods, and River Thames near Abingdon. Urban areas are equally as fun to get some amazing images.

Regardless of your whereabouts, we are surrounded by such beautiful counties, we will have a wide choice of places to meet and get some fabulous photographs, using nature as our backdrop.

Albums, Prints & Wall Art

Your photos are meant to be show off rather than hidden amongst your social media feeds and I can offer you some images that you would be proud to place on you wall. You can choose from a range of wall art, albums and prints within your budget range.

Owning a creative family, pet or equine portrait is an investment that will make you smile for many years. There will be no rush to ensure we get the best photographs possible. I will get to know you before the photoshoot to ensure I understand what you want from your time with me. Overall, we’ll have fun, and you’ll receive some fantastic images expertly captured and edited in your chosen frame.

Please take some time to look at my website and see some of the gorgeous animals that I have had the privilege of taking their photograph. I would love to be able to capture some memories for you too.
