Photo Taking Tips

Photo Taking Tips


  • Take photos at your pets eye level, this may mean getting down low.
  • Good portrait photos have your pet looking straight towards you or with their head slightly to the side looking past you.
  • A focused photo is key so the more detail in the photo the better the portrait will be.
  • Good focus on the eyes will help capture your pets personality and help create a better portrait.
  • If possible try use a real camera not your phone camera. Photos taken with a camera are often capture more detail.
  • Take photos in good lighting, (outside is best). This will allow your camera to pick up more detail.
  • Avoid using the flash at it creates unnatural shading.
  • Avoid distortion if possible. Sometimes an animals nose can appear very large and out of proportion if the picture is taken too close up.
  • When in doubt, take more photos! The more the better
