Because the places we walk with our pet become part of our story
Where We Walked is about celebrating the connection between people and their pets through the places that mattered most.
A favourite beach walk, a quiet woodland path, the garden where they waited for you every day. These are the spaces where memories were made. I turn those moments into bespoke illustrated pet portraits that honour your shared journey.
The story behind the illustrations
Where We Walked began from a belief that the most meaningful memories are the ones quietly lived. Our pets share our everyday walks, turning familiar places into symbols of love and connection. My illustrations focus not just on your pet, but on the place where your story was made.
What makes Where We Walked different
Every illustration focuses on:
Your pet, seen from behind - just as you remember walking with them
A meaningful location chosen by you
A calm, illustrative style designed to evoke memory and emotion
By placing your pet within a familiar landscape, the artwork becomes more than a portrait. It becomes a moment you can return to.
Celebrating memories -
past and present
Where We Walked illustrations are created for many reasons.
Some celebrate the joy of a pet who is still very much by your side. Others are made in memory of a beloved companion who is no longer here.
Memorial illustrations are approached with particular care and sensitivity, capturing a peaceful place where your pet felt most at home - a space that reflects love, comfort and remembrance.
About the artist
I’m Emma, an illustrator based in Lincolnshire, UK. My work is inspired by nature, quiet moments and the emotional connections we form with the animals in our lives. And of course the pets that are and have been in my life.
Every illustration is hand drawn digitally, using your photographs and descriptions to ensure each piece feels personal and true. I work closely with each client to understand their story, because no two walks and no two pets are ever the same.

If you’d like to turn one of those places into something tangible,
a piece of art that tells your story, I’d love to work with you.
