Stress-Free Family & Dog Photography
Studio Established 2008
It’s easy to think you’ll book that photoshoot “soon”… until life gets busy. Puppies grow up in a blur, older dogs slow down quietly, and the little expressions you love most change before you realise. Many Market Harborough dog owners tell us they’ve waited because they wanted something that felt considered and worthwhile, not a quick photoshoot that didn’t do their dog justice.
At John Jenkins Photography, we create timeless dog portraits that capture your dog’s personality, from playful grins to calm, soulful moments and turn them into beautiful wall art for your home. For a lot of families around Market Harborough, the end result matters just as much as the experience, especially when the portraits are going to live on their walls every day. If you’re based in Market Harborough, Great Bowden, Little Bowden, or Lubenham, our calm indoor studio in nearby Lutterworth is an easy, straightforward drive.
The studio is private, quiet, and designed to help dogs feel relaxed and secure. With patience and gentle guidance, we allow your dog to settle naturally so we can capture portraits that truly reflect who they are.
📍 Market Harborough dog photographer John Jenkins Photography is based in a cosy indoor studio in Lutterworth – just a few miles from Market Harborough town centre and an easy drive from Great Bowden, Little Bowden and the villages along the A4304.
We had a fantastic experience with John at John Jenkins Photography. From start to finish, he made the whole photoshoot feel relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. John was brilliant with our puppy, Nala, showing plenty of patience and understanding, which made a huge difference and put us all at ease.

And if you’re not sure what to wear, when to book, or whether your dog will cooperate (they might not, and that’s okay)—we’ll talk through it all. This is your session, not ours. Have a look at our guide ‘How to Prepare Your Dog for a Photo Shoot‘. Or give us a call to go over your ideas.
We recently won a competition with John Jenkins Photography and had a wonderful experience whilst there. John himself was not only great with us, but also our dog, Maxy… the kind of dog that you instantly regret taking out in public!

There’s no hard sell, just a simple, elegant range of products with both traditional and modern finishes, and some digital special offers too. All the choices are yours.
Seeing the photos for the first time was amazing. John captured our dog’s personality perfectly and we honestly struggled to choose because we loved so many of them. The viewing session was relaxed and enjoyable, with no pressure at all.

Hi, I’m John, the photographer behind John Jenkins Photography. With over 30 years of experience, I opened my Lutterworth studio in 2008 and have since photographed thousands of families and dogs, learning how to keep sessions calm, flexible and genuinely enjoyable — even when dogs have their own ideas.
I specialise in family and dog portrait photography, creating natural images designed to become beautiful wall art for your home. Every session is private and fully guided, and you’ll work with one photographer from start to finish for a consistent, relaxed experience.
I’m a member of the British Institute of Professional Photography and the Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers. With over 140 Google reviews and plenty of experience as a dog owner too, my focus is simple: a stress-free experience and portraits you’ll truly love.
EXCELLENT Based on 141 reviews Posted on Deanna MathiesonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with John at John Jenkins Photography. From start to finish, he made the whole photoshoot feel relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. John was brilliant with our puppy, Nala, showing plenty of patience and understanding, which made a huge difference and put us all at ease. What we appreciated most was his approach - there was absolutely no pressure or sales push, which we respected and valued highly. The focus was clearly on capturing great moments and making the experience a positive one. We would very much recommend John to anyone looking for a professional, friendly photographer who truly cares about their clients.Posted on Kirsty SpibyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Would definitely recommend ❤ so professional and marley loved it. wonderful communication after the photoshot. Fantastic quality of the photos much appreciated of your time and energy 👏Posted on Kirsty WalshTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow is all i can say. We won a dog photography shoot and framed photo with John this month. We've been back to see the images and we had no words!!! From the start John was incredibly friendly, and welcoming. Our autistic daughter (who's very unpredictable) loved the shoot and when she had had enough, she had breaks, and John focused on our dog whose photos are beyond what I imagined they'd be. We have purchased all the images (with absolutely no pressure from John, who was adamant there is no expectation to purchase from the beginning). But to lose them would be a tragedy. The photos will be treasured forever and we can't wait to have them on display in our home/in an album. And we're pretty sure they'll be in our families homes too once they see them! 😍 thank you so much 💓Posted on JuanitaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I ,1000% recommend John Jenkins. Our photos are absolutely amazing. He made us feel comfortable and right at home. But the one thing that really stood out is that my autistic son felt comfortable. Brilliant brilliant work.Posted on Chris BrendTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Visited John recently with my partner and our two young daughters (5) & (2) John was great, made us feel at ease from the beginning and despite our daughters not wanting to sit still for long at the best of times he managed to get some great photos that we’ll have as memories forever. Thanks JohnPosted on Terri BeechTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Would 100% recommend this photo shoot with john jenkins photography.

It was a very hardworking day especially when both dogs are extremely curious however John was brilliant from start to finish. And today I took my sister and sister in law to look at the photos and omg they were absolutely amazing and it was really hard to pick a favourite as I loved them all. I cannot wait to get them all back. I would like to thank John for doing an amazing jobPosted on Hannah ConnollyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Dogs change quickly, especially in the early years. One minute they’re all paws and mischief, the next they’ve grown into themselves. And if you share life with an older dog, you know how precious those quieter, gentle seasons become.
The sooner you create your dog portraits, the sooner you can enjoy them as beautiful wall art in your home. Seeing your dog’s face on the wall, not lost in your camera roll, brings a smile every single day and turns ordinary moments into something you’ll treasure for years.
Our studio sessions are deliberately limited so every dog gets the time, calm attention, and patience they need. If you’ve been thinking about booking “one day”, this is your sign to do it while this chapter still feels like now and turn today’s memories into wall art you’ll love for a lifetime.
