Dressing For Photoshoots In The Extreme Cold: 5 Tips For Beginners
We finally did it! We experienced an entire winter in Europe, and we’ve come out on the other side (just about), having survived the cold! WOOOOOHOOOOOOO! Ok, this may not be a big deal for most of you, but for us brought-up-under-the-African-sun, skin-only-equipped-for-heat, cannot-even-fathom-minus-20 kids (can I still call us kids?) this is a HUGE achievement. Especially since we ventured out into some of the coldest climates on Earth this past Winter, including a little place called Jyväskylä a.k.a. Finnish Lakeland, and the Arctic Circle at the top of Norway where the Sami people live (that’s me below, wrapped up and looking fabulous for -35C). Now, if you’re reading this in hope of some serious scientific advice on the exact clothes...

Auckland: Wild Jungles And Beachside Views
It’s safe to say that we’ve spent more time in Auckland than any other city on our travels. It wasn’t planned - it just happened to work out that way…and a lot can happen in 8 weeks, so I’m going to try summarise our adventure, as best as I can. Here goes! We spent the first six weeks looking after an amazing German Shepherd named Maddie (we miss you already Maddie <3), while her owner was away on holiday, allowing us the opportunity to live in Western Auckland in the Waitakere Regional Park (a.k.a The Waitak’s, as it’s known by the locals) for free - side note: the home was INCREDIBLE and we honestly felt like we’d struck house-sitter gold – a...

How Living Like A Dog, Can Make You A Better Human
When planning a sabbatical, people often speak of "enlightenment" and traveling to "find themselves". In our case, we've been looking for creative inspiration and a chance to experiment. So let's experiment with a funny thought. Imagine for a second that you are a dog. I know what you're thinking...
The age-old fray stands – you get people who love dogs, and you get people who love cats. We, proudly, are the former and will stop at nothing to get ourselves in front of the friendly, wagging slobberers. Lucky for us (and the Internet), dog photography has picked up dramatically in the past couple of years, and with it a string of creative pet owners and photo curators. Instagram itself has taken a giant pounce towards supporting furry models with their #WeeklyFluff insert every Monday, and with hashtags like "dog" and "dogsofinstagram" reaching over a hundred million tags, it's no wonder dogs and their humans are getting dressed up for the occasion. With such a rise in well-timed pooch photography, our quest for...

The Ghost Dog Series
Spending over a month looking after Alaskan and Siberian Huskies within the Arctic Circle definitely left an impression on us. Using the landscapes of Northern Norway, and combining them with striking photos of the dogs, we created portraits that captured our time there better than I could have said in words. For more of our creations, follow #HFFH_creates on Pinterest and Twitter....

Huskies Love Taking Selfies More Than You Do
In a world where every man and his dog are taking selfies, we found some Huskies that seem to love themselves more than we thought. This is what happened when they got hold of our camera. SD For more pictures of the pooches we encounter on our travels, follow @PixelPaws on Instagram. ...
