We received an amazing gift 🎁 to have a shoot done with Carolyn. What a lovely lady and the best photo experience you can have, no posing, no unnatural smiles just a relaxed easygoing experience where she catches amazing shots. I’ve only seen a preview and was blown away. Can not recommend enough to create memories and very special photographs x thank you

I can't thank Carolyn enough for our wedding photos, they are just beautiful. She captured the day perfectly and was so lovely to have around on the day. Her style isn't intrusive and she seemed to really enjoy being there, even though she was poorly!!
Our photos are everything we could have dreamed and more, and we won't hesitate to book her in the future for family shoots!
Highly recommended

Thanks to Carolyn, we got some beautiful photos of our girl Sophie before she crosses the rainbow bridge as she really isn’t too well. The amount of care and compassion that went into the shoot was unreal. We made some lovely memories with our girl and now we get to keep them too. To anyone else in our situation, I cannot recommend Carolyn highly enough. She is amazingly kind and the photos we have are gorgeous and are going straight in a big frame on the wall. Thank you Carolyn of Small Adventures

Do not hesitate to book with this wonderful lady! Carolyn immediately put us at ease and I knew straight away that she would capture the type of photos that we were after, casual and cute!! Our dog Bonnie loved her and we all really enjoyed the walk whilst getting the pictures albeit in mixed weather. The range of photos that we have received is fantastic and better than I thought. Keep it local and book with Small Adventures Photography! Thank you Carolyn!

I would like to thank Carolyn for bringing our photo shoot forward and being so accommodating as we had the awful news our dog Scooby has relapsed with lymphoma and isn’t going to be with us long, We had a brilliant afternoon and she managed to capture some beautiful shots of my family with Scooby and I can’t wait for the canvasses to arrive, Carolyn immediately put us at ease and we really enjoyed the afternoon and couldn't be more happy with the fantastic photos we have to keep, hugs mx


Kirsty Lane White · I was thrilled to receive a gift of having a photo shoot with my family & crazy labradoodles. Carolyn was absolutely brilliant. The photos amazing. Carolyn is an incredible photographer & made the whole experience wonderful. Loved the whole experience

Couldn’t recommend Carolyn from Small Adventures Photography enough! So helpful before, during and after the shoot and instantly made us feel comfortable! We originally booked for earlier in the year but Carolyn let us postpone the shoot due to bad weather which was really appreciated as the weather on the day of our second shoot was perfect! The photos are beautiful, everything I wanted and more, I honestly can’t thank Carolyn enough for capturing them! She managed to capture Sully’s goofy personality perfectly in every photo, I’m so over the moon with them



Summer Johnston
We booked a family session with Carolyn recently and were beyond thrilled with our pictures. Carolyn made us feel so relaxed and captured the most beautiful pictures of my family that I can't wait to print them big and display them at home. She has a real talent and I am already planning the next session! Thanks Carolyn, you are brilliant xxx


Cheryl Bale
Just received our photos from our ‘Small Adventure’ photo shoot. Even the pouring rain didn’t spoil our afternoon walk with Carolyn and she managed to capture some fantastic photographs of our very handsome boy Freddie. She even managed to get some brilliant photos of our daughter (who was determined not to get wet) and Freddie!! Would highly recommend xx

Lucie Woods  recommends Small Adventures Photography.August 3, 2019 · 
We had a lovely family session with Carolyn! I really wanted to just capture us as a family having fun. I don’t often get to be in photos with my girls as I am usually taking the pictures so this was so special for me to see us interacting and mucking around. I will really treasure these memories and I cannot wait to print some for my home 😍🙌🏻💗 Thank you so much


Nicola Jayne 
I had my wedding photos done by small adventures photography, they are amazing. I love how informal and perfect they are. All my guests said that she is a lovely lady and was not intrusive and they felt at ease to have their photos taken. Absolutely can't recommend small adventures enough. Just perfection!

Carol Cooney
Carolyn has created some lovely photos of our crazy whippets, she even learnt the sighthound sway so she could get the action shots! You won't get better value for money if you buy a gift voucher for friends and family and they will love you for it.

Bethany Dexter 
Where do I start?
I should probably start with me hating photos of myself. I don't like being photographed, and I don't like seeing pictures of me. However, being photo'd is sort of expected at a wedding!We contacted Carolyn following a recommendation from a friend and were not disappointed. She is so relaxed you almost forget she's there to take pictures of you. We also had some special requests which she's managed to accommodate which we are grateful for.
.All in all - lovely person and fantastic photos

Sara Simpson
Carolyn came to do a session with our dogs, as we find it very difficult to get good pictures of two jet black dogs. She was very friendly but professional and even my normally timid, barky youngest dog took to her straight away! She was good enough to come with us on a somewhat muddy walk to get some action shots and even lay down on the floor to get the best angle! We're thrilled with the photos and spoiled for choice for the ones we're going to get blown up on canvas. Absolutely recommend Small Adventures Photography, in fact I'm thinking of the next session with my horse......

Rachael Bury 
Last year I was lucky enough to have Carolyn do the photography for my wedding and to say she went above and beyond doesn't cover it! Carolyn did a fantastic job and captured every moment perfectly and thanks to her I saw some amazing things i didn't even see on the day. Carolyn was also brilliant with me and my husband who are very awkward in front of the camera but she had us relaxed and laughing in no time! Thanks again Carolyn could not have got a better photographer hopefully we can have you do some more photos soon :) xxxxx

Chris Lamble 
Very talented and Versatile photographer who makes the very best use of natural light. Brilliant wedding, portrait and animal photographer who I would highly recommend for uniquely styled images to be proud of. Best value photography you'll ever buy.

Rachel Kirkham-Moore  
 One word... Wow!
Carolyn certainly had her work cut out with me and the hubby, a pup that wouldn't sit still and two little girls that didn't listen!!
Talk about dedication - Nothing was too much trouble she even went home in dirty clothes from where she lay on the floor or was sat to get the best shots.
We have seen few that she has posted up and they are amazing and just what (if not better) than i'd hoped for.
I will he recommending Carolyn to all my family and friends. ...
Truly Amazing thank-you so much for a wonderful experience xx

Leanne Goodwin 

Fabulous photographer but also such a lovely lady! We were very nervous for our family photoshoot but there was no need to be at all, Carolyn put us straight at ease and it couldn't have gone better! Lots of brill ideas for pics and having just received a sneak peek of what's to come, I'm very excited and so impressed. Thank you Carolyn!

Caroline Moore 
What an amazing photographer. Thank you so much for Making a very nervous bride and groom feel so relaxed. So much so we loved having our photos taken. Can't thank you enough. The photos are amazing. Xx

Emily Dott 
The pictures that Carolyn took are absolutely beautiful. I can't recommend her enough. I'd never met Carolyn before our session but I felt so relaxed around her and felt like I'd know her for years. Carolyn not only cooed over our beautiful Penny she made sure our gorgeous son Lucas wasn't left out. Everyone I've shown the pictures to can't believe how natural they are yet capturing the love between our little family. Thank you so much

Jenny Taylor 
Recently had a shoot with Carolyn, mainly of my newborn but also with myself, husband, 2 year old and dog. My 2 year old wasnt playing ball on the day and i was worried we wouldn't have any nice shots with her smiling. But Carolyn had the patience of a saint and it paid off! We have just received our photos and they are absolutely gorgeous, even managing to get some fab shots of our little madame!! Cant wait to display our photos around the house. Carolyn was very calming, patient and easy to get along with which made the shoot relaxed and enjoyable. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!

Michael Martin 
First off, Carolyn was very easy to deal with, coming up with a nice location to do the photos. Carolyn joined my wife, my 2 sons and myself for a walk, whilst at all times looking for that photo opportunity.
She certainly got the best out of my 2 boys, with them posing on occasions and at other times just busy playing as she caught the impromptu shots.
A week later we got the disc with the photos on and as a family we sat down to watch them. The images brought back what ...was a lovely family walk with the boys having a laugh and play and even mummy and daddy entering in to the spirit of it.
We were all very impressed with the pictures she had captured and i would not hesitate to recommend Carolyn and her work to anyone.
I really do wish Carolyn the best of luck with this venture. But to be honest with her abilities and the results that she gets, it is more talent than luck that will make this venture work, so a bright future ahead i would suggest. Thank you


Lisa Green
Carolyn has an exceptional eye for beautiful photographs. She is quick to capture perfect, fleeting moments and in committing them to photographs, make those moments last a lifetime. Her ability to sense the action or movement seems as though is directing the subject, and yet she does no such thing, she simply lets the people/pets/events unfold organically, without interference. You can see for yourself that the moments that are captured are beautifully natural, with a life, and a feel all of their own. As someone who has used Carolyn for dog photography, I can say with absolute confidence that she has an incredible manner with dogs, and can amazingly predict what they're up to with startling accuracy! Our dog took to her immediately and was very quickly eating out of the palm of her hand. Carolyn is very likeable, great to work with and be around during the shoots, and her service to the customer is excellent

Becky Matthews 
Booked a gift voucher for my mum's birthday.. From start to finish everything was brilliant! The gift voucher arrived super quick and the afternoon of the shoot was so much fun. We went on the usual route that we walk the dogs on. Carolyn was very relaxed and friendly and instantly knew which areas would make for the best pics. We had 3 dogs, 3 adults and a toddler so she really had her work cut out for her..we were definitely not disappointed though. The standard of Carolyn'...s work is unbelievable! Every image was so polished and emotive. We were all bowled over when we received the full set. Now we have beautiful images and memories to keep forever! I have had so many compliments from people that have seen the pics and have recommended Carolyn and Small Adventures to everyone. We will most definitely be booking you again!!

Received a gift voucher from a friend for a photo session. We had a wonderful afternoon with Carolyn photographing our Springer Spaniel, Charlie, in our garden & on a walk to nearby fields. Carolyn immediately interacted with Charlie and knew how to get the best out of him in some great nstural movements & situations. She immediately had Charlie eating out of the palm of her hand (figuratively & literally) and he responded so well to her. Our sneaky peek pictures really impr...essed us and I csn honestly say we have been overwhelmed with the quality of Carolyn's work on the full set of photographs. She has a great eye and really caught the best side of our gorgeous boy. I'm so pleased and really proud of her work! I love the variation in composition, lighting, focal points and she has managed to capture some really spectacular detail in split-second moments. I would not hesitate to recommend Small Adventures Photography, a pleasure to spend time with too. Thank you so very much xxxx

Carl Anderton 
We can't recommend Small adventures photography enough . Carolyn made our wedding day very special and personalised for us and our guests even the four legged one . Captured some great unique images . Made us all feel relaxed . Can't wait for another photo shoot with her . Thank you . Louise ,Carl

Cameron Abercrombie 
I know Carolyn from a local photography group and knew she was a professional photographer with fantastic skills but with a natural eye for capturing amazing moments. We hired her for our wedding in May this year and we were overwhelmed by the amazing photographs that she had captured. During the wedding no one felt her to be intrusive and felt very comfortable having their photographs taken and many of my friends and family told me that she was friendly, professional and such a lovely person. If anyone reads this and is looking for a recommendation then feel free to ask me to show you the photos!

Uma Cutting 
Carolyn I can't tell you how pleased I am with the pictures you have taken but more than that the kids had a fabulous time as well. I would recommend Small Adventures to anyone. Thank you

Cassie Bond 
As a fellow photographer I chose small adventures photography to come and take pictures of my dogs, one being very poorl...y girl that I wanted to be in pictures with. I've looked at many other photographers before but liked Carolyn's style of editing and I wasn't disappointed with the end results. I've laughed and cried at the photos taken and now have beautiful ones to cherish. All three of my gang loved her during the shoot and she was very relaxed around them and not fussed about being mugged for kisses or precious about her camera if they came to close. Also didn't push for more than needed and was understanding of Harley's (my poorly girls) limits. Her involvement in rescue and ethics are also fantastic, which is close to my own heart. Would highly recommend and thank you Carolyn xx

Steve Morgan
 

What an amazing photographer, We cannot thank her enough for the brilliant job she did on Friday, you wouldn't have known she was there she spent all night making sure that we got the natural pictures we wanted and she went out of her way to ensure that we got pictures of certain people that we had told her were important (brides dad!) and boy did she get some spectacular shots that we can treasure forever! Cannot recommend enough, simply brilliant!! Thank you x

 Helen-Jayne Jones
I couldn't recommend Carolyn and Small Adventures Photography highly enough. Carolyn is so calm and patient (needed when there are 8 of you) and everyone was really relaxed and took to her straight away! I had no idea how the pictures would turn out, but they've exceeded every expectation. I'll definitely be booking again! Thank you for everything

Niki Martin -
We wanted photos of us and our 2 dogs and loved the work that we had seen on the Small Adventures website. What we got was something more than I ever expected; the photos captured some beautiful moments, but they also captured something more precious - the personalities of our dogs. I wanted real memories and I got more than I ever hoped for. The photo shoot was fun ( I hate photos of myself usually) and Carolyn has such an eye; there were photos taken we hadn't even realised were being taken. I wouldn't hesitate in highly recommending Small Adventures

Alison Slater .
Had photo session with Carolyn at the end of May. She was absolutely great, put us all at ease. Only just seen photos due to holidays, they are great! Would have no hesitation using her again for any occasion.

Sammy Hebblethwaite
Absolutely amazing pictures!! Would highly recommend!! Captured every moment of my wedding day and I'm pleased to of shared it with Carolyn. She is such a lovely person and has some amazing photo opportunity ideas!!!!

Zowi Whittaker
Small Adventure Photography completed a photo shoot for our website. Carolyn was amazing - she came on location numerous times and went above and beyond to get some absolutely amazing shots! 
Her professionalism and dedication was brilliant throughout and we have some amazing shots that are exactly what we wanted. 
I would recommend Small Adventure Photography to anyone - we anticipate top up shoots for work when appropriate and I personally will be using them for family shoot for years to come!


Gemma Duxbury
I did one of the most scariest shoots for me yesterday with a photographer that put each and everyone of us at ease, the pics so far are amazing and I loved every minute of it.
Thank you so much carolyn xx


Tom O'toole

Such an outstanding photographer. Candid and natural images. Seeing things from a brilliant perspective. Love my images, now got the problem of which ones to print!! Brilliant lady, takes great pride in her work and clients, who I now call my friend! I can't recommend her enough to people I know!! You won't regret booking with Small Adventures!!

Lara Watts
Carolyn is absolutely amazing! So lovely to work with and some brilliant photo ideas turned into perfect photographs can't wait for an excuse for our next lot of pics!

Margaret West
I am the proud foster of a deaf puppy with several learning issues. We needed some photos for a magazine article after several failed shoots Carolynn offered her help the results are amazing and breathtaking. A million thanks from a small rescue, a long term foster and an over active highly strung slightly mad puppy

Bev Dean
Fantastic photographer. She knows exactly how to draw you attention to the photo and has a talent for capturing those special moments that are sometimes missed by the naked eye. Highly recommended

Amy Cook
Beautiful pictures of our little boy and our first family photos. The whole experience was brilliant from start to finish. Made to feel comfortable and relaxed during shoot. Would definitely recommend!! Think Archie agrees too

Sian Fitchett
We had our bump photo shoot & will be having our newborn shoot in a couple of months! We absolutely loved how comfortable we were made to feel throughout the shoot & are over the moon with the pictures!! They are already ordered to print, Thankyou so much! Would definitely recommend to everyone!!

Tracy Haslam
WOW WOW and WOW!!!! Superb photos,great photographer,me and the dogs had a great time and felt so relaxed,highly recommened xxx

Paul Bentley
Carolyn is frankly the kindest and most professional photographer. You need her for all your photography needs, we can't recommend her enough. Try her

Joanna Henry-Jones
Absolutely loved our photo shoot today, fantastic pictures done by Carolyn who didn't mind all our family, there were 25 of us all together including lots of kids and dogs, that kept on asking if they could have a picture with this person and that person and she just kept on pointing and shooting!!! Would definitely recommend and would love to do it all again !!

Jade Kenny
Cannot fault this lady and her amazing talent! Had such a fun afternoon, I was a bit nervous at first but soon relaxed as we started our photo shoot, with Carolyn's friendly but professional attitude. We've got some beautiful pictures that will stay with us forever. Thanks again! X

Michele Fielding Was Mclaren
This lady is amazing, even before she came to photograph our Gino she found out what kind of photos we wanted and even sent us some ideas that she thought would work well. Carolyn really made us feel at ease throughout the photo shoot and because of that our photo's have a completely natural feel to them. We can't believe some of the shots she managed to get, they completely capture Gino and our... personalities and we will treasure those snapshots of our family forever. I cannot recommend Small Adventures Photography enough, Carolyn has a huge talent and somehow manages to get in every detail and instinctively knows what's going to make a great picture. Very very impressed and couldn't be happier with our pictures

Judith Mallinson
There really aren't enough superlatives to describe Carolyn and her work, she captures the essence of her subjects with no apparent effort and minimal stress. I can't recommend her enough

Alison Critchley
We had a photo shoot yesterday with Carolyn and we absolutely loved it! She was so very patient with myself, my daughter and especially with our lively saluki, Chance. The photos I've seen so far are just stunning, so very natural and being in the outdoors was just brilliant! Only ever had studio photos done before so this was a whole new experience but very enjoyable! Carolyn is so chilled and so it was very easy to feel relaxed and just enjoy our day. Couldn't recommend Small Adventures Photography enough. Good luck for what can only be a fantastic future! smile emoticon xxx

Matt Jarvis
Had our photo shoot last Saturday and received the disc today and every photograph is fantastic. Such a lovely lady and brilliant eye for a good picture. We will definitely be recommending you and booking again. Fantastic and thank you

Millie Ruby Murphy
I asked Carolyn to produce some photos for our new website, she has a real eye for a good picture, especially animals!! During our photo shoot she knew exactly how to deal with my dogs to get them to do what she wanted which isn't easy sometimes !!! Carolyn understood and reflected in her photos what our business is all about, thanks very much Carolyn & we will definately coming back when we need tweaking or updating xx

Michaela Howard Holt
Thankyou soo much for soo kindly donating your time today to help raise funds for Rossendale Responsible Rescue. The pictures are amazing. We're truly grateful ♡♡♡


Dan Holder
A great day had for the photoshoot. Felt very relaxed, and so did my 1 year old and dog. We got fantastic photos - and very quick turnaround. Thank you
