Fine Art Dog & Horse Photography
By multi-award winning Mandy Newby
Welcome to The Darkroom – where timeless moments meet artistic intention.
Internationally acclaimed artist Mandy Newby creates striking, limited-edition works that celebrate the enduring bond between dogs, horses, and the wild beauty of the world they live in.
Mandy’s new signature style brings a dreamlike, painterly finish to each piece—rendered in two distinct moods. This unique editing treatment debuts in the collection Shadow & Light. Designed for rooms that want breathing space and a touch of fantasy.
Her other collections are deeply considered, visually powerful, and rooted in story. From the cinematic landscapes of Guardians of the North to the elemental motion of Fire & Water, each image captures a moment that lingers.
Alongside her fine art work, Mandy also leads Hound & Hedgerow—a growing community project that invites everyday dog lovers to be part of something beautifully nostalgic. This collection is a celebration of dogs in our everyday lives, set against the backdrop of British beaches, pubs, phone boxes, and village greens. It’s a love letter to a country of dog people.
Whether you’re an art collector, interior designer, or simply someone who still believes in real photography—welcome. You’re in the right place.

Fire & Water
Fine Art Horse Photography with Energy, Motion, and Grace
Where hooves meet water and muscle becomes movement, you’ll find Fire & Water — a study of the horse as a force of nature.
Featuring a Friesian and an Andalusian stallion, this project is all movement, power and grace – horses in their element.
Photographed in The Netherlands this collection captures what words often fail to: the fierce beauty of the horse.
Created for those who feel the thunder before they hear it.
Hound & Hedgerow
A Community Art Project – A Portrait of English Companionship
This one’s close to home — and close to the heart.

From windswept beaches and red phone boxes to pub garden picnics and rainy-day BBQs, this project captures what it means to share a life with a dog in Great Britain.
These aren’t just photographs — they’re love letters to a way of life.
A 12-piece release, with limited edition prints, calendar, and coffee table book to follow.

Bringing Britain to Life — Through Dogs
