Dominique Barendregt

About me
I’m Dominique, a photographer with a passion for capturing the unique bond between humans and animals. Through Dominique Feline Photography, I create images that go beyond just a beautiful picture – I strive to capture the soul, the emotion, and the story behind every moment. My main focus is equine and canine photography, but I also love working with people who feel deeply connected to their animals or to nature. What sets me apart is that I don’t just look at the outside – I tune into the energy and the bond that’s present. That’s what makes every session personal and a little bit magical. I work in different styles: from my beloved “Magical Realism” in nature to intimate studio sessions on location. Wherever light, atmosphere, and connection come together, an image is created that touches you and becomes a meaningful memory for years to come. The greatest joy for me is when someone sees their animal captured in a way they’ve never experienced before – a look, a posture, a moment of pure essence. That’s exactly what I freeze in time through my work. With my camera, I tell stories of love, trust, and freedom. Photographs that are not only beautiful to look at but that also feel like a part of yourself.
Selected photos
114th Collection
This was actually my first time photographing with a horse in the portable studio. I just loved the outcome of it and will definitely do some more of this!!
114th Collection
I was shooting with this dog and he was an absolute gorgeous model, but it missed something. Then i saw the scarf in his basket. And my brain started to work it needed to be in the photo. I absolutely love the outcome of it!
