ABOUT US

Brisbane-based Rod Scott is a self-confessed animal lover from way back. Having worked as a traditional photographer for many years, he says, it was the timely arrival eleven years ago of a cheeky Kelpie x Cattle dog named Ringo into his life that inspired him to focus his work entirely on animal photography and portraiture. Rod Scott has spent many years observing the many nuances of animal behaviour; the way they move, the vast array of different facial expressions they make, the way the eyes and ears “speak” for the animal. Many years of capturing so many different kinds of animals through the lens of a camera has given Rod Scott the ability to anticipate each of his subject next moves in an almost uncanny way. In order for Rod Scott to so vividly capture the true spirit of your pet, he has to get to know and truly understand who your pet is and how he thinks. How he manages to do this has often baffled and amazed the many delighted pet owners who have commissioned a Rod Scott photo portrait of their pet.

Before long, Rod Scott had earned himself a reputation for capturing each pet’s characters so accurately on camera in a way that had pet owners absolutely thrilled with the results and the buzz quickly spread. Recognition for Rod Scott’s talents recently earned him Runner Up First Class pet Photographer in the SE Queensland 2009-2010 Paws & Claws Awards and he Qualified again last time as Runner Up. Rod Scott is also a qualified picture framer specialising in unique hand-made custom frames. His Fabulous Art Storyboads are becoming Extremely Popular along with Large Custom Canvases.
