Learn to capture sharper, more expressive dog portraits with Stephanie Thornton, including a live shoot, pro tips and exclusive Wex offers.

Join professional pet photographer Stephanie Thornton at Wex Manchester for a practical, hands-on afternoon of dog photography. Limited to 10 places.

We’ll start with a presentation covering the key things you need to know when photographing dogs, from understanding canine behaviour and reading their body language to working safely and confidently with different personalities in front of the camera.

Steph will then take you through a live dog photography shoot, demonstrating how she approaches lighting, posing, handling and directing a session in real time.

Then it’s your turn.

You’ll have the opportunity to photograph the dogs yourself, put what you’ve learned into practice and experiment with creating your own images with Steph there to offer guidance and support.
