Allow me to reintroduce myself as it is a brand new year! 👋🏼

I’m Dani - a passionate storyteller and lifelong animal-lover. Photography has always been meaningful for me having started out way back in 2013. Along my journey I've learned that I’m most passionate about creating beautiful photos that capture natural moments, in the unique story of a person’s relationship with their pet.
Just think of me as a lifestyle family photographer - with pets at the front and centre!

One of my favourite parts of a photo session is hearing all about the bond between pets and their people. Creating Hound in Hand has allowed me to combine my love for natural, authentic photography with the unconditional love between people and their pets.

Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk - I hope we can become real-life friends soon!

Before we head out and vote for the country's next Prime Minister, let's use our voting powers to celebrate some VIPs (Very Important Pets).
Each of the gorgeous pups that I photographed last year are nominated for 2024’s Dog Of The Year.

It's been a delightful exercise in gratitude to look back over the wonderful faces of all the people and pets that I have had the pleasure to photograph over the last 12 months. Thank you to each of you, who invited me to capture your family either out in nature, in the studio, or in your home. My heart feels full 🫶

There is a grand prize for the winner of Dog of the Year (as determined by most votes), and also a prize to be drawn at random for one lucky voter.

Share your favourite nominees here on socials, but head to my website to cast your vote, and win!

"Everyday life with my dogs is pure happiness, I couldn't imagine not having them in my life. Living life with dogs is just better, I'm never alone and I always feel loved."

Rebel is absolutely correct, living with dogs IS better. This nugget of wisdom and many more can be read in full on Rebel and Kaiya's dog blog - now live on the Hound in Hand site.

Hi y'all!

Signing out from here until the new year. Wishing you a happy, safe and restorative holiday period, however you will be spending it.
Me? I'm off to the Gold Coast, to sit poolside with a glass of bubbles and a family-size Toblerone.

In the interim my calendar is still open for bookings for the new year, and don't wander off too far, because my annual Dog Of The Year comp is just around the corner!

Thank you for your support, as always.
I'm incredibly grateful that I am able to do this cup-filling work, and share it with you all.

With warmth and love,

Dani xx

Here's an argument you can bring to Dad when he says flat out 'no' to getting a dog. Hit him with the facts! On average, a family with pets is a happier family.

A dog will boost your mood through their unconditional love. Give them a big cuddle and your natural levels of oxytocin, the “feel-good” hormone, will increase. (aka get high without drugs).

They will help strengthen bonds within your family unit, teach responsibility and personal accountability, and never ever share your secrets. (aka 24/7 therapy).

Getting outside to go to the park or take a walk when you otherwise wouldn't, is not only good for our bodies but fantastic for our minds. (aka inbuilt daily exercise and fewer gym fees)

Children who grow up with pets are often quicker to develop empathy and responsibility. (aka your very own Mary Poppins)

If Dad comes back citing all the extra jobs that pet ownership will entail, I like to hold gratitude close to my mind.
I haven't "got" to walk the dog, I "get" to walk the dog. What a privilege it is to clean up toys from the floor, because they had a good time playing. It's a privilege to have dog hair in the car because it means that we were able to take them with us. What a privilege that the couch feels cramped because they decided to share in our space for a cuddle. Having to vacuum up sandy floors at home is a tiny price to pay for a fun time at the beach. Unconditional love leads to a more enriched and joyful life, and you can't convince me otherwise.

Sorry Dad. We're getting a dog.

Do you ever ask yourself, does my dog know that I love them?

Well, yes! Absolutely your dog knows you love them. And they love you back in a myriad of ways. While they can't say it, they'll show it.

If your dog greets you enthusiastically when you come home, wagging their tail or jumping around, it’s a clear expression of love.
They might show affection by leaning against you, cuddling, or following you from room to room. Maybe they bring you their toys to 'share', which is them reaching out for a connection. Giving you licks is another natural way dogs show care and affection, which is similar to grooming behaviour in their pack.
Simple things like a relaxed body language, and if your dog sleeps near you or exposes their belly, it means they feel safe and loved. A dog that rests peacefully by your side feels secure and connected to you. There's no doubt at all that they love you right back 💖

Siobhan told me, "Ragu is a social butterfly who loves to play and has a mind of his own. Maple is a little diva who loves attention and cuddles. She thinks she's an actual baby!"

I adored spending time with your gorgeous family of 5. Congratulations on your third born, this time a human baby!

Major and Bernadette. A real love story ❤️

"Major is my everything. I say he is my son, he is definitely a mummy’s boy and follows me everywhere. He makes me smile and laugh so much. If I’m having a bad day he makes it better, and if I’m having a good day he makes it even better still. Coming home to him is the highlight to my day. He is my soulmate"

"Linkin was a happy accident! Daemon went away for work for one night and I went to 'just look' at a litter of puppies owned by a colleague of mine... I picked Linkin up, he fell asleep in my arms and that was it. I was smitten and we suddenly had a puppy!"

Linkin now has his very own Dog Blog! With words from his doting Mum, Cassia.

Sweet and busy boy, Linkin. We trotted together through the bush for our session, where he lead us down to the waterhole for a paddle. He was the only one willing to go in but that didn’t matter, he’s not limiting himself for anyone!

Darling Benji, I only met you for the briefest of moments, but it was immediately obvious that you were an exceptional boy. A huge heart, an old soul, and a most wonderfully kind personality all wrapped up in a little gentle body.

Benji left us just over a week ago and my heart aches. I can't even imagine the impression he's made on those closest to him, but I feel it's safe for me to say thank you Benji, for making the lives of those around you better. Of that I have no doubt.

His Mum Georgie shared with me, "Benji was the most loyal and loving dog, incredibly smart, protective, full of energy and all around the best boy you would ever meet. I hope you’re catching waves and eating all the chicken you want my beautiful boy, Benji you will forever be my soul dog. ❤️🐾"

It's why I do what I do.
Pets are family, and even on the sad days, my cup is filled because your time together deserves to be cherished.
Thank you Danni for inviting me to walk alongside your family, and catch a glimpse of your heart.
