About this episode
Elke Vogelsang based in Germany began photographing as a way to tackle some hard emotional challenges presented by a series of personal family life events. The camera, the pictures, the animals, became a mental refuge. Published in The Sunday Times, National Geographic and Taschen she has earned the title of Europe's top pet photographer. Look into the eyes of her subjects and you'll see a dog or cat, not just looking back, but talking to you. But initially, self doubt, held her back.
