“I can’t speak highly enough of Alex and the photographs he took of our two dogs. He was absolutely brilliant with them, and the whole process was really enjoyable and relaxed. Our dogs are quite a handful so it could easily have descended into mayhem in less calm and professional hands! The images are just beautiful.”
“Alex’s professionalism and efficiency was inspiring. His natural comfort and ability to work with my dog Teddy, a somewhat nervous and cautious rescue, achieved greatness.”
“Alex was such a pro with my dog, Bullet. He created a super chill and relaxed environment for the dog to be in, she was incredibly calm considering she can sometimes be shy and nervous in new situations. I will definitely be letting other people know that Alex is the guy to go to for their pet portraits.”
I'm Alex Wallace, owner and dog photographer for The Dogs By Alex, combining my love for dog training and behaviour with beautiful dog portrait photography.
Growing up in a dog-loving family, they’ve always been part of my life. We adopted our own rescue Jed when I was a nipper, I volunteered in rescue centres, fostered and finally adopted my own wee boy Ludo in mid 2018, and five years later my other rescue lass Norah early in 2023. I love meeting new dogs, big and small, hearing their own stories, and experiencing the different personalities of each one through my dog training and photography.
I come from a portrait photography background (www.alexwallace.co), working for advertising, PR and editorial companies. Now applying my style to dog portraiture I aim to create stylish and characterful photographs of our canine pals.
My dog training has come from years of working with rescue dogs and through continuous study. My aim is to develop a close-knit bond between dogs and their owners - one that’s clear, fun, balanced, and built on trust and love. There’s something really special about seeing dog and owners totally in sync, and through clear direction and practice I believe can be reached by anyone.
