Lou shared about her start with photography and some great tips. **Please introduce yourself** Hi, I'm Lou, and I live in Yorkshire, UK, with my partner and twin daughters. As well as loving doing pet photography, I work part-time for the NHS, helping facilitate a democratic group for people with complex emotional and mental health needs, which I also love doing.  ![Lou Adams pet photographer](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/Lou-Adams.jpg) ## **How did you get started with photography?** About 20 years ago, I came across an old SLR at a car boot sale. I'd never done any photography before aside from a few holiday snaps with a point & shoot, and I pretty much figured it would be a bit of a fad and I wouldn't really bother with it, or I'd get bored of it within six months. Something clicked, though, and I discovered I loved taking photographs of animals, and I'd spend my spare time & money on having fun taking images and getting them developed. Over time I met some wonderful people who helped me improve my photography & I gradually progressed to transparencies and then onto digital. After having my daughters in 2011, I spent some time doing maternity, newborn & child photography, which I enjoyed, but after a few years, I went back to following my main passion of pet photography, which I now do either in the wild, on location or in my studio. ![Lou Adams Photography cat](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000_0007.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams ![nPhoto Folio Box Lou Adams Photography](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000_0019.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams - 5x7" Folio Box in H16 textile on outside & inside, laser etched on the front cover; 5x7 Prints. ![Lou Adams Photography rabbit](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000_0005.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams ![nPhoto Photo Book Pro Lou Adams Photography](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000_0029.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams - Photo Book Pro in E6 Leatherette on the outside & A19 Textile on the inside. ![Lou Adams Photography dog](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000_0001.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams ## **What is your #REASONTOPRINT?** For years I didn't print many of my images, mainly due to lack of funds and space, but I always had the desire to see & feel products. I've never personally been one to have photographs on walls, but I absolutely love folio boxes. The ability to have various images beautifully presented with the option of changing which are on display is something that really appeals to me. I love the tactilness of holding and seeing my images on something other than a screen and being able to show clients what their images can look like. ![nPhoto Complete Album Set Lou Adams Photography](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000%20b_0009.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams - 10x10 Photo Album Pro in A49 Textile on the outside & matching Album Box Classic in the same material. ![nPhoto Folio Box Lou Adams Photography](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000%20b_0007.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams. - 10x12 Folio Box in H16 Textile on both outside & inside, laser etched on the front, board mounted prints,  ## **What business tips/advice would you give to other photographers?** Doing what works for you would have to be my main advice! I don't feel particularly qualified to answer this question, as the business side has never been my strong point, but I tend to know what doesn't feel right for me personally, and I use that as a guide to try and find something that does. It often feels like a slow process, but it's definitely evolved over time, and I'm excited to see where it leads in the future.   ![nPhoto Complete Album Lou Adams Photography](https://blog.nphoto.com/hubfs/(C)%20Lou%20Adams%20Photography%20%202000%20b_0010.jpg) Pictured: Artwork by Lou Adams.
