LYNN, GRAHAM & NARNIA

For Lynn and her husband Graham, their Newfoundland dog, Narnia, has brought immeasurable joy, companionship, and a renewed sense of adventure into their lives. Having shared over fifty years of marriage — and a lifelong love of Newfoundlands — Narnia is the latest in a line of gentle giants that have filled their home with love. From the moment she arrived, her affectionate spirit and loyalty have made her a cherished part of the family. Every morning, she rattles the little wooden gate at the bottom of the stairs to let them know she’s awake, ready to greet them with excitement — a ritual that never fails to make Lynn smile and start her day with warmth. The photographic experience was a way for Lynn to celebrate that beautiful bond and the companionship that Narnia brings into their everyday life.

The session was also a way of acknowledging how deeply connected they are to their dogs, and how those relationships have quietly shaped their lives together. Over the years, their Newfoundlands have been loyal companions through life’s changes — steady, affectionate presences who have made their cottage feel full of life. With Narnia now starting her water rescue training, Lynn wanted to capture this special chapter: a reminder of Narnia’s intelligence, devotion, and natural instinct to protect and comfort. It wasn’t about creating a posed portrait, but about preserving the feeling of love and companionship that defines their home.

Their chosen artwork now hangs proudly in the lounge — the heart of their small cottage — where it can be seen and felt every day. It captures not only Narnia’s strength and gentleness but also the love and gratitude Lynn and Graham feel for her. Each time they pass it, they’re reminded of that morning greeting, of shared walks and quiet evenings, and of the way Narnia keeps a watchful eye on them both.

Having this artwork displayed has become more than decoration; it’s a source of daily comfort and joy. It helps Lynn start her day with a smile, grounding her in the simple yet profound companionship Narnia gives. It reminds her to savour the small moments — the wag of a tail, the warmth of soft fur, the quiet loyalty that comes from years of love. Through this, she experiences the world with a deeper appreciation for presence, connection, and the everyday happiness that only a beloved dog can bring.

‘We have had a wonderful time here at the studio with this super friendly team! Narnia loved being a ‘Princess’ and the focus of attention. The photos are fabulous and will be much admired!’ Lynn, Graham and Narnia
