he's an amazing photographer and is very patient (and quiet) when he's taking photographs - I took SIL's pup a few years ago for a test photo shoot for an ad with him and he and the handlers manage to get the pups to do amazing things (all with the help of roast beef and chicken and a very very good eye
)
I think SJP put a link up to his book? He has a fantastic one on horses too
as for the equipment Fionad it's out of this world and worth tens of thousands - lots of Hasselblad and prime lenses - I was very very envious
