for the love
of a dog
The moments that alter us seldom announce their arrival. They gather quietly, in familiar rituals and faithful companionship, weaving themselves so completely into the fabric of our lives that they become part of who we are.
Shadow taught me to see those moments. To understand that the most innocent stories are not measured by grandeur, but by presence. By the extraordinary privilege of sharing a life with a soul who asks for nothing, yet leaves us forever changed.
Chasing Shadow Photography emerged from the inescapable realisation that the stories we hold closest are the ones we cannot bear to lose.
The Promise
the observer
I have always been instinctively drawn to the fragile moments that disappear almost as quickly as they arrive.
When time with Shadow began to feel heartbreakingly finite, photography became something else entirely.
It became the only way I knew how to hold still what life never could.
From that quiet realisation, Chasing Shadow Photography emerged.
Not simply just photography, but as a pursuit of purpose.
A promise to slow down.
To honour the legacy.
To stay curious.
To chase the magic.
To find the wonder.
To come outside, barefoot on the sand, and simply play.

Tails between Tides
A dog effortlessly changes someone's world. Those are the stories waiting to be told.
Tails between Tides is the first community storytelling project curated by Chasing Shadow Photography, thoughtfully seeked and crafted through honest conversation and bespoke visual narratives.
It celebrates the magical bond between dogs and the people they choose. Each story invites us to pause, look closer, and recognise the moments that are stunningly ordinary, yet become the ones we carry with us.
To celebrate the launch of Tails between Tides inaugural season, a limited number of complimentary experiences are being offered as the first collection comes to life.
Discover the project. Share your interest. Become part of the first chapter.
