Whenever I’m editing a shoot, I do it in a way that best reflects the animal’s personality – some dogs burst with colour and vibrancy, and others are a more soft and subtle colour pallete to reflect their gentle nature. With Lucy and Tilly, their elegance, sweetness, and loving natures lent themselves so perfectly to black and white. Greyhounds are such amazing dogs – Lucy and Tilly were so gentle and majestic. Both ex racing Greyhounds, the girls are now living their lives surrounded by complete love. Their owner Joy describes Tilly as “shy at first, a bit reserved, but playful, agile, light as air, my ballerina” and Lucy as “friendly, laid back, very sweet, can be stubborn”.
A special thank you must go to Joy, who won this session through a very generous donation to the Melbourne Pet Ambulance as part of their auction last year. MPA is an organisation that helps transport urgent and non urgent pet patients, as well as caring for many stray, abandoned, and injured animals and wildlife.

Joy chose these two photos as gorgeous mounted prints for her wall – they look stunning
