Dog
“Her fascination with the characteristics of different breeds, her instinctual eye and her innate ability to move with each animal into a moment of photographic clarity have never faltered."

“Throughout her work Samuel consistently captures the spirit of her subjects in a style that she has made her own.
‘You have to have a lot of patience and an ability to isolate the moments that best define the nature of the breed, but also the character of the particular dog.
You need to be “in sync” to draw out these qualities, and it requires you being in touch with your intuition.”

"Dogs brought me back to the two things I love the most ― animals and photography."
Deborah Samuel
Her unrivaled technical ability and impeccable taste and you have an artist who consistently produces memorable images that matter ― to her. And because they matter to her, they matter to many of us. Samuel achieves a visceral connection to a viewer that much contemporary art, aimed at the curator or the dilettante, does not.
