Maria Michael is a Specialist Pet Photographer who has been running her own business, Detheo Photography, for over 13 years.  She has won a number of awards for her images, is a regular speaker at the annual Intentional Photographic Covention in london and has spoken at The Photography Show, NEC, Camera Clubs, Universities and offers her own 121 training.  Maria’s passion is the bond between humans and their pet and working with the natural behaviour of the animals she is photographing.

"I will be sharing things I have learnt over the years, including tips. I do not choose to use expensive equipment etc, instead prefering to use a basic set up when at shows and simple lens set up when out on location.  I aim to do things on a budget.  I will explain how I try to incorporate everyday items into my studio shoots, along with the kit I take with me on location."
