Jane與丈夫Kim Taylor養了60多只貓，她在二人的攝影棚里為它們拍照，攝影棚位于吉爾福德附近的薩里轉制學(xué)校
Some of these mischievous moggies were captured on film during Jane's final months as she battled cancer
其中一些淘氣貓咪的圖片攝于Jane人生的最后幾個(gè)月，當時(shí)她正與癌癥作斗爭
Jane endeavoured to capture the essence of what every cat lover sees in their own pet by letting her subjects grow up as kittens in and around the studio

Kim還住在夫妻倆兒的攝影棚里，與兒子為多種動(dòng)物拍照。他說(shuō)這些照片充分展示了Jane捕捉動(dòng)物最佳瞬間的才華
"Cats are notoriously hard to photograph in the studio but Jane managed to achieve what many photographers have been unable to do," he said
Kim說(shuō)：“誰(shuí)都知道在攝影棚拍貓咪不容易，但是Jane想辦法拍到許多攝影師無(wú)法拍到的鏡頭。”
"Jane was not just a talented photographer, she had trained as an artist and, with just a few unerring pencil lines, she could produce lifelike representations of animals," he continued
他接著(zhù)說(shuō)：“Jane不僅是才華橫溢的攝影師，還是訓練有素的藝術(shù)家，她用寥寥幾根鉛筆線(xiàn)條就能精準地鉤出栩栩如生的動(dòng)物圖畫(huà)。”
For many years Jane's line sketches illustrated her father's regular article 'Nature Notes' in the Saturday edition of The Daily Telegraph
Jane的父親曾在《每日電訊報》周六版寫(xiě)《自然筆記》專(zhuān)欄，她為父親的專(zhuān)欄畫(huà)了很多年白描插圖
