A good dog photograph is that one
snapshot that shows your dog’s personality. Capturing that moment in time when
your dog’s emotions - whether curiosity, anxiety, love, adoration, protectiveness,
aggression, happiness, etc, is worthwhile.
However, this isn’t always easy to achieve and can take a lot of
patience, understanding, time and energy. Here are a few few tips and Purebred
Breeders LLC:
Your dog must be comfortable in
his environment. If he/she is uncomfortable, chances are the portrait will be
of low quality and would only seek to capture the dog’s physical presence,
rather than its character. Dogs, like people, have different personality
traits; an active dog may prefer an environment conducive to running and
playing such as the park, while a lazy dog may be comfortable laying down in a
cool area or in a sleeping basket. Dogs love to be with their friends and
family. Purebred Breeders gives paws up to photos of dogs in their natural
environment doing their regular routine, as it’s likely to turn out great.
Be playful. A good romp makes
them happy and toys can be used to encourage this. Purebred Breeders, LLC
encourages you to play with your dog and help them to develop their trust and
self confidence. After playing to their hearts content, dogs are normally tired
and willing to do whatever you desire, as they are too tired to protest. At
this point, you can dress them up and use props to enhance your photographs with
few challenges.
Don’t forget those treats!
Purebred Breeders, LLC reminds you that dogs love the reward system for being a
“good doggie,” and a treat should always be given to encourage good behavior,
especially after your dog has been gracious. If your dog is good at obeying commands,
and will stay or sit in a position of your choice, this will definitely add to
a less stressing snapshot. Remember not to overdo it; dogs tire and
get bored too.
There is a saying that ‘the eyes
are the windows to the soul,’ and this is also true for dogs. Try to be at eye
level with your dog; Purebred Breeders, LLC guarantees that you will get some of
the most exhilarating pictures that can tell so much about your dog’s
personality.
Be alert and ready to take the
shot. Your camera should not take a long time to capture the scene. Also, be
prepared to take lots of photos from different angles and distances until you
get the perfect shot. Knowing your
camera settings and the limitations of your camera is important.
Good lighting is essential for a
perfect photo, no matter the subject. Not all dogs will tolerate the use
of flash, as this can be quite irritating or frightening to them. Digital
cameras allow you to delete, so experimenting with different lighting in
varying environment is recommended. You
would be surprised that good pictures of dogs are not only captured in
extremely bright light and shadows; these situations don’t necessarily spoil
a picture.
