HANNAH, STEPHEN & STANLEY

Stephen and Han had often talked about capturing their dog Stanley properly, but like many people, life always seemed too busy—until it wasn’t. After experiencing the loss of a close family member, they were gently reminded just how important it is to hold onto the things that matter most. Stanley, their cheeky, clever and deeply loving cockerpoo, had been their constant through everything. The photographic experience became a way to pause, reflect, and celebrate the quiet but powerful role he plays in their lives.

Stanley isn’t just a pet to them—he’s their comfort, their routine, their emotional anchor. With demanding jobs and life’s inevitable ups and downs, he has this remarkable way of knowing exactly when he’s needed. Whether it’s sitting close after a long day, gently grounding them with his presence, or simply bringing joy as he bounds along the beach, Stanley helps them reset and reconnect. The experience gave them the opportunity to capture that feeling—the calm, the love, the togetherness—that can be so easy to overlook in the busyness of everyday life.

Now, their artwork takes pride of place in their lounge, where they spend most of their time. It’s more than just a beautiful piece on the wall—it’s a daily reminder of what truly matters. Every time they see it, they’re brought back to that sense of warmth and gratitude. It shifts their focus, even on stressful days, helping them slow down, breathe, and appreciate the life they’ve built together.

Having this displayed in their home has subtly changed the way they move through life. It’s a reminder not to wait for the “right time,” but to celebrate the present. To notice the small, meaningful moments. To feel proud of their little family. And most importantly, to recognise that the love we experience every day—often quietly, in the background—is worth capturing, holding onto, and celebrating.

“We cannot thank you enough for capturing our beautiful fur baby as amazingly as you have! We aren’t fans of having our photos taken (apart from Stanley), however you mad bus feel so comfortable and that shows in the photos. We will treasure them for a lifetime and are so glad we chose you to capture the bond we have with Stanley and each other.”
