An amazing photographer. Her innate ability to connect and understand my two beautiful rescue dogs one who is extremely fearful- anxious is very inspiring.Her calming aura was infectious to Chester my little rescue dog who is so nervous. Thank you Michelle fur your compassion and patience towards Chester.

A Fabulous photographer, with a wonderful way with words, and loads of love for all the fluffers she meets. Gets the best head tilts outta my Blake.

Sarah, Blake's Human.

Very skilled in all areas of photography, but her real forte and true love is photographing animals, of all descriptions... She is just incredible, and loves every dog she encounters... And it shows in her work!... Every 'Wet Nose' caught in her lens will be the focus of her whole world at that moment... Take a look at her latest pic of the smutt!!!... Thank you so much, Michelle... You've made 'Dougal' look almost sweet!!!... Anyone looking to have their pets 'paw'trait photo taken could do much worse than to visit Michelle in her Wet Nose Studio!...

Carolyn, Dougal's Human.

Michelle has a way with the animals that must be seen to be believed...

What We Do

We create with heart. Our attention and devotion remain centred with what we do best; we don’t divide our time with other fields of photography and design. We limit ourselves to minimum sessions to give each Wet Nose the full amount of time and energy they deserve. Photography and design, for us, must come from the heart, and is not only an extension of our eyes. There are plenty of good enough products out there but ‘good enough’ doesn’t appeal to Wet Nose. We're a movement that wants to make our world a kinder and more sustainable place. When you buy from Wet Nose you’re supporting real life breathing advocates, and all of their passions and endeavours. You’re buying bespoke, handmade, ethical, earth positive and Irish, and you can feel great knowing those values guide everything we do. We work with an amazing tribe of beautiful beings who show kindness, love and support for one another.

We click with heart.

Your light, your narrative, it's what the world needs. Whether it's family portraits for your wall, products for your business, or a gift for your loved one, we want to help you to tell your story through photographs.

We gift with heart.

We don't just gift it, we live it. Caring for animals is who we are and what we do everyday. With every purchase you make, you help organizations who are on the front lines of rescuing and advocating for animals, and causes that align with yours too.

We design with heart.

Our mission is to inspire people to live a sustainable and mindful lifestyle. We design our pieces with intentional consideration of what we wear, what we eat, and how we give thought to our planet, our animals, ourselves and each other.

What We Love.

In memory of Holly. August 20th 2008 - August 20th 2018. The inspiration. The original Wet Nose and heart dog for ten years. Although her velvety ears are no longer within reach and we cannot hear her breathing. Even though life and nature limits us from showing it, love never ends. Do you know that millions of adoptable animals are sadly and unnecessarily euthanised each year? The Wet Nose studio was born in 2012 after three years of photographing dogs in the pound, offering them a chance to have a professional photograph taken at intake to help them to find their happily ever after. "As a photographer, I have often been torn between private commissions and volunteering time to help animals and I believe that if we collaborate to help animals, we can all win. More times than I care to remember I have heard that pound and shelter animals are somehow damaged but this could not be further from the truth". Let’s start having conversations that matter. Feel free to come over to learn more about www.thewetnosestudio.com – where rescued is our favourite breed.
