Tips to capture your pets good side

I wanted to share some helpful tips for capturing the perfect photo that truly showcases their personality. A great photo is the first step in creating a portrait that you’ll cherish forever.

 

1. Get Their Attention

Try using their favorite toy or treat to grab their attention. Hold it just above the camera to capture that bright, focused expression we all love.

2. Natural Light is Key

Lighting can make a huge difference! Natural light, especially in the morning or late afternoon, works best. Avoid using a flash, as it can cause harsh shadows and may startle your dog.

3. Get Down to Their Level

For a more intimate and engaging photo, try getting down to your dog’s eye level. This perspective brings out their true character and makes for a more compelling portrait.

4. Capture Their Personality

Whether they’re playful, serious, or a little bit of both, try to capture the expressions and poses that really reflect who they are. Candid shots often work wonders!

5. Take Your Time

Patience is key. Take a few different shots in various settings to see what works best. Sometimes the perfect moment happens when you least expect it!

 

Bonus Tip:

If your dog is a little camera-shy, try to make the experience fun and stress-free. A relaxed dog will naturally give you better photos.

 

If you’re thinking about commissioning a portrait or have any questions about the process, feel free to reach out.

 

Peace, love, and puppy kisses!
