Over the past few months, I’ve transformed a small, unheated double garage into a fully functional, dual-purpose studio. This space isn't just for photography; it’s also my creative hub where I make props and work on projects like 3D printing. From using magnetic backdrops to swapping out Santa’s sleigh and a dog-sized aeroplane, I’ve turned limitations into opportunities, maximising every inch.
In today’s blog, I’ll dive deeper into how the festive setups come together and how my trusted Cockerpoo, Sabi, helps me test everything before clients arrive.
Sabi, My Trusty Test Model 🐾
Meet Sabi, my three-year-old Cockerpoo, and the real MVP behind the scenes! Sabi helps me test every set and prop before the clients step in front of the camera. From Santa’s sleigh to the dog-sized aeroplane, Sabi is always the first to give them a try, making sure everything is perfect for your furry friends. Whether it’s posing with the kiddies’ sit-in car or modelling on our Christmas backdrop, Sabi’s joyful energy ensures that every set is designed to make your pets feel comfortable and look their best.
A Festive Wonderland for Everyone
With Sabi's stamp of approval on each set, you can rest assured that your pets will feel right at home. The props, including Santa’s sleigh and the aeroplane, are sized perfectly for little ones and dogs alike. Whether you're looking for a portrait with your family or a fun holiday shot with your pets, these festive setups are designed to bring out the holiday spirit.
