Welcome To
The Darkroom Photography
Hello & welcome to The Darkroom Photography, my name is Mandy and I specialise in Dog Portraits/Dog Photography & Equine Photography. I am the current Regional Pet & Equine Photographer Of The Year 2022, with a worldwide following and an instantly recognisable style. I qualified as a Fellow of the Master Photographers in Dog portraiture in December 2021 and in January became the International Illustrative Photographer of the Year 2021, which is the achievement I am most proud of to date.
My photography style is cinematic, dramatic and technically of the highest of standards. Each piece is meticulously edited to produce a unique & breathtaking statement piece for your home. I use one of the UK’s leading print houses to ensure your pet is displayed on the best quality materials, with the correct fixings and most importantly a large choice of options to suit your personal taste.
Your pet is an individual and your photography experience will be too. The photo shoot itself is relaxed and informal so that your four legged friend will have the best possible experience. My customers often describe their shoot as a lovely walk, with a new friend and a camera. Once your shoot is complete the best photo’s will be selected and professionally edited to create something truly unique and special.
If you would like to find out what to expect during your dog photography or equine photo shoot experience then please get in contact or take a look at what my customers have to say.
I hope to hear from you soon,
Mandy Newby FMPA

PHOTO EDITING
Over 20 years experience using industry leading editing software
One of the questions I get asked a lot, often by other photographers is, how do you edit like that? I cannot stress enough that this style of photography is not point and click with a preset added in bulk. You will not end up with a thousand photo’s that all look vaguely similar from me. The best photo’s from hundreds taken on your pet photo shoot will be selected to be professionally edited in Adobe Photoshop. My work is a blend of traditional pet portrait photography and digital art. This part of the process is what takes up over 80% of the time in creating your pets gallery and the results are quite dramatic. This skill in post processing is the reason most people choose me to photograph their pets. You will come away with a totally unique, one off piece of artwork that cannot be reproduced.
Wall Art & Prints
Unique statement pieces for your home
Having a professional photographer photograph your pet is an experience you will never forget. Images that wouldn’t look out of place in an art gallery are created especially for statement pieces take pride of place in your home. For more information on what products are available please check out my products and pricing page.
The photo shoot fee includes travel to the location of your choice and a minimum two hour photo shoot with your pet (s). After the photo shoot several hours will be dedicated to going through the hundreds of images taken during our shoot, only the very best will be selected for a full edit. Five images will be artistically edited to complement the model and their surroundings. Each edit takes nearly two hours to complete so your completed image gallery will be ready to view in 5 working days. Additional edits can be purchased if requested.
You will also receive one mounted Photo Rag 300gm Fine Art print which you can pick once you’ve seen your gallery. You are under no obligation to purchase any other products but if you would like too please take a look at our product guide. Our product packages offer a significant reduction from the retail price list.
*Travel over 25 miles is charged at 40p per mile
