Who is Tell Tails and Why Choose Me?
Why Choose Tell Tails?
Choose a Photographer to Suit You
- Every photographer has their own style, so it's vital that when you are choosing a photographer for your photo shoot that you explore the type of images they take. Choose the photographer who takes photographs you like!
- Tell Tails specialises in action photography outdoors. Choose Tell Tails if you are looking for fun, outdoor, natural, specialist award winning action photographs.
- Your photo session is tailored to you and your pet. It's important for your pet that they feel comfortable so the session is designed for older pets, young pets, to accommodate numbers of pets together, with or without their humans. I spend time ensuring that the environment will work for you. For example, ensuring that the location is secure, or coming to your property for very young or very old pets.
What Do You Want?
- Every photo session I run is fun for the animal and for their humans. If we're not enjoying ourselves there's something wrong. The fun always comes across in the images. Unfortunately a pet's biggest downfall is that they rarely live as long as we do, so providing you with images you can treasure forever is vital.
- Whichever photographer you choose, make sure you do your research so that you know the sort of images you want. If you know what you have in your mind, you can communicate your vision to your photographer so that they can meet your expectations. I would love to help you get the images you dream of!

About your Photographer
I'm Louise Farrell, and I work as a professional pet photographer based in the south of England. I'm a Qualified Member of the Guild of Professional Photographers (QGPP) and have won various awards for my images including from the Kennel Club Dog Photographer of the Year competition in 2019.
I capture the personality and character of pets and their humans for private and commercial use. I'm based in Berkshire, Oxfordshire, and Pembrokeshire and I'm happy to travel.
My dogs are rescue border collies called Meg and Jake. I also have rescue cats who are moggies called George and Dylan. My old dog, Bo was my muse and inspired me to set up my business in 2014. I haven't looked back.
My aim is to put a smile on your face whenever you see the photographs I've taken for you.
I adore what I do and hopefully that comes across in my photographs and the feedback from my customers, many of whom have now become friends!

Volunteering at DBARC
I also volunteer at my local dog rescue photographing their animals who are looking for their forever homes - they tell me it's helpful to have a professional photographer working with them and from my point of view it's a privilege to be able to give back and help the rescue centre.
