Dogs are more than pets—they’re family. Give them the spotlight with a creative dog portrait experience at my Milton Common, Thame studio, set in the beautiful Oxfordshire countryside.

I’m Mark Hewitson, a professional dog photographer, dedicated to capturing your dog’s unique personality through striking, timeless artwork. My studio features crisp, clean backgrounds and a selection of props to complement your pet’s look.

With years of experience photographing dogs of all temperaments, I ensure a relaxed session, whether your dog is energetic or nervous. If needed, I can keep leads in place and remove them in post-editing—around 75% of the dogs I photograph are on a lead!

I regularly get asked ‘What happens if my dog needs to be on a lead?’. Well, during your experience I will direct you how to hold the lead so that I can remove it at a later date and then after your experience with a little magic and polish I can make your dog look like it was never on a lead at all. Take a look at this image and slide between the before and after to see what I mean.

Mark managed to get such beautiful photos of our girl even though she was really excited and struggled to stay still!

I was lucky enough to win a competition for a free photo shoot. The whole experience was a very positive one. Mark is extremely professional and a genuinely nice guy. He was so welcoming and had a very calming effect on my two cockapoos, who were so relaxed and just seemed to take everything in their stride. The pictures turned out to be absolutely amazing. I purchased one of Marks packages and I'm thrilled with the canvas. Would 100% recommend Mark to anyone who would like some fantastic pet pictures.

A fabulous experience. Mark was very proffesional and good with my rogue cocker spaniel. We have a lovely set of photos for a great price and he was polite and talkative.

Mark and his Team were outstanding from start to finish. The whole experience was friendly, professional, and genuinely enjoyable. I won the session with absolutely no pressure to purchase any photography, but the results were pure perfection - I ended up buying every single one, in multiple formats. My fur baby was treated with such care. Mark’s experience really shows; he takes the time to understand each dog’s personality and what helps them shine so he can capture the shots you’re hoping for. It was fun, relaxed, and full of moments I’ll treasure forever. Thank you!

Loverly experience from the very start! Me and my dog FinnIey was lucky enough to win the session through a competition. From initial phone call to having my wall art delivered, the information and service given was great. Mark ensured everything was in place for a calm, safe and fun experience for me and Finn - this was really appreciative given that Finn can be reactive. We went at my dogs pace and 100% respect given from the first meeting to settle him, allowing him to check the rooms out and approach at his own pace. During the shoot Mark was relaxed and happy to work with what Finn tolerated; never pushing him to do more. We went back at a date that worked for both of us to see the results once edited - this was amazing as he’d got better shots than I thought. We went through all the options and different frames/ types of wall art available with no pressure to purchase anything. For me it was hard not to and we have a loverly feature frame in our wall of our special boy! I highly recommend Mark and the team! You won’t be disappointed.

What a wonderful experience. I have never had professional photographs taken of any of our pets before. Mark had loads of patience with Edie and produced some stunning pictures. Needless to say we ended up with a beautiful portrait to be cherished for ever. The service was second to none. Thank you Mark and Val!

I was lucky enough to win a Pawtrait Experience with my German Shepherd, Kairo, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we arrived, Mark was incredibly welcoming, patient, and professional. Kairo can be full of energy and easily distracted at times, but Mark was amazing with him throughout the entire session. He took the time to make Kairo feel comfortable and relaxed, and his calm, friendly approach made the whole experience enjoyable and stress free. It was clear how much Mark loves working with dogs, and his talent really shines through. He managed to capture not only Kairo’s beauty and character but also his goofiness, which means so much to us. The photographs are absolutely incredible and far exceeded our expectations. Seeing the final images left us completely blown away. They are stunning, memories that we will treasure forever. I can’t recommend Mark highly enough to anyone considering a Pawtrait Experience. Thank you for such a fantastic day and for creating such amazing photographs of our boy, Kairo.

Amazing experience. My dogs loved Mark and he was patient with them. Nothing was too much. The prints are wonderful. So pleased, especially as Mark worked on an old photo of Millie, my dog who died in November. Recommend wholeheartedly
