Welcome to Second Shot

Hi! I'm Paula. UK born and bred, now living in Virginia with my husband, 2 horses and 7 cats.

In my photography I focus on two things which I enjoy in life; Pets and Weddings!

I've been a lover of animals for as long as I can remember, giving me a natural-eye for animal photography.

I love to capture weddings in a documentary style, getting the candid and un-posed moments. The excitement of a wedding day is a unique experience and one which I love to be a part of.

Your most loyal friend

Canine Portraiture

Your dog is not just your dog, but a family member too. Loyal, fun, protective and always happy to see you.
They grow with your family and share the precious moments of your life. Honor them with a portraiture shoot and hang his / her pictures next to your family's.

Your feline friend deserves to be shown-off to your friends and family in their very own portraiture collection. Turn your cat into a work of art with a wall-art piece.

Equine Portraiture

The bond between you and your horse is one not to be reckoned with. Special moments are shared, secrets are told and tears are cried, yet your horse stays true to you, without judgement and without opinion.

Keep your special bond alive for years to come with a portraiture collection of your horse and you (optional). This can be shot in a natural setting or accentuated with a black background session.

Alternative Pet Portraiture & Fine Art

Not all pets come in the shape of a cat or dog, but they are still as precious to you. Whether you have a lizard, Tortoise, or even an Emu, you want to capture memories which will last a lifetime.
