Sadly, there comes a time when we must bid farewell to our beloved pets . As difficult as it may be to confront the end of life, there is profound beauty in the opportunity to reflect, remember, and celebrate their lives. In recent years, a growing movement within the photography community has emerged, offering a unique and compassionate service known as end-of-life photography. The Tilly project, begun by Lauren Smith Kennedy in 2021, was named after her soulmate cat Tilly. It seeks to match photographers up with those who want to capture images of their pets who are at the end of their lives. I have been part of this project for several years now.
