This project began with a chance discovery—a 1979 Tamron 80-210mm lens found in a local charity shop. Intrigued by its character and nostalgic feel, I set out to test it in a modern setting, capturing the personality and charm of dogs and their owners in the local community!

The result is a series of timeless, emotive portraits that blend the warmth of vintage photography with the clarity of contemporary digital techniques. This experiment evolved into Studio Reginald, offering bespoke pet photography and personalised keepsakes that celebrate the bond between pets and their humans.
