The Crazy Dog LaDIES BEHIND HAPPY PAWS STUDIO PET PHOTOGRAPHY
Here at Happy Paws Studios we’re passionate about creating unique and personality-filled portraits of your beloved dog that you will cherish for a lifetime.
Meet Anne
Hi, I’m Anne, crazy dog lady, ‘top dog’ photographer, chief puppy cuddler and guilty of having serious conversations with my dogs Eddie, Denny Crane (yes, he’s named after the character in Boston Legal) and Tess.
While I’ve always loved dogs, I wasn’t always a pet photographer. My photography career started as a way to escape the grind of my corporate career. I needed a hobby, a creative outlet and something I felt passionate about. At the prompting of my family, I tried landscape photography.
And I was hooked. It was the perfect way to get in touch with nature, to relax, and an outlet for my creative energy.
There was something uniquely satisfying about creating beautiful, landscape photographs.
I’ve even won lots of international awards for my art.
As I grew tired of the corporate life, I realised I wanted more. I wanted a career I loved, one that excited me and one I looked forward to each day.
And so, I decided to combine my two biggest passions. Dogs and photography.
I mean, what better way to spend a day than playing with gorgeous puppies and dogs?
I’d found my dream job. But I wanted a friend to work with. And Julie was the perfect fit.
Meet Julie

I’m Julie, also a crazy dog lady and resident puppy wrangler!You’ll find me behind the scenes, doing all the boring business stuff while Anne gets creative, photographing, and cuddling dogs.But that’s okay.

The SUPPORT Team
Tess – Manager of Toys
Looking after the toys your pet may wish to play and pose with is a very important role. Tessy ensures the toys are well tested and cuddled before handBuddy – The Exercise Manager
Buddy was a very over weight rescue dog when Julie and family adopted him.
Regular walks and helping keep Julie fit saw him slim down to a lean fitness machine. He is now a regular on the walking track around the lake and likes to make sure his Happy Paws Studio employees are fit as well.
Denny Crane – The Manager of Rest Breaks
Yes, Denny Crane likes to ensure all dogs have a break to relax and chill out. Maybe a quick swim in the pool.Eddie – The Manager of Loves
There is nothing Eddie loves more than showing humans how much he loves and appreciates them.
