Erin’s work has proven that she is a true pet lover!

“Not only is Erin a very talented & professional photographer, her work has proven that she is a true pet lover.
She captured the essence of my dogs spirit and their ultimate devotion to me. I had the most amazing experience from photo shoot, to choosing photos in the showroom, to receiving my albums. I was blown away with the final result.
I would highly recommend Erin to any true dog lover, a must do once in your dog’s life time.”

Welcome to Erin King Photographer

PROFESSIONAL PET & DOG
PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER IN MELBOURNE

My love for animals has driven my desire to become a pet photographer and my pet photography sessions are based on a desire to capture that love for others.

I’m an award winning, experienced, AIPP Master and accredited professional pet photographer in Melbourne. Not to mention, I’m also an avid animal lover, crazy dog lady and proud dog mum, supporter of animal rescue and animal rights.

Nature is my studio and I specialise in working with natural light to capture fun, natural and creative environmental pet portraits in vivid colour. I’m passionate about providing you with beautifully finished printed images as treasured keepsakes.

I understand the close relationships we share with our pets because I have this with my own dog, Peanut. She has brought so much joy, love and laughter into my life and as a result has become so much of my inspiration around what I do and why I do it! It’s this very special and meaningful love and relationship that I want to capture for you, through my pet photography.

Watch my video below to get an insight into what happens during your pet photography session. See my shooting style and the final image results unfold.

Boho Chic Styling

For Your Pet Session

Being such a passionate animal lover and wanting to further delve into my creative side, alongside my professional pet photography, I am also a modern macramé maker having recently created The Boho Pet Products.

The Boho Pet was born to adorn your pet with hand made bespoke decorative textile dog collars, leads and bandanas. Constructed using macramé knotting techniques and patterns with a distinctive bohemian style.

As an added accompaniment to your pet photography session, you can now add some of our handcrafted macramé dog accessories to elevate your dogs style and have them looking super chic!

Styled sessions include a $50 voucher to put toward your favourite item to wear at your shoot.
