Experiment
Here’s your final pet photography tip: Experiment! Because while the advice in this article will certainly get you some great shots… …there’s always room to try new things! So take your time and enjoy the session. Don’t be afraid to test different approaches, angles, and compositions. Shoot a lot; you can worry about the results later!
Be patient
Pet photography requires a lot of patience. Dogs, cats, and other pets can be pretty excitable – but if you’re patient enough, your furry friend will end up relaxing. And that’s when you can get some of your best shots! In fact, you might consider starting your photoshoot with action images. Then, as your pet calms down, you can capture intimate close-ups, cute poses, and more.
Time your session carefully
If you want to capture some formal-looking pet photography, then “schedule” your photoshoot when your animal is somewhat sleepy. You might shoot after your pet has woken up from a nap. Or you might shoot late in the day, when your pet is tired and lacks energy. That way, it will be much easier to capture a sharp shot. Of course, if you want a more dynamic series of shots, then grab your camera at a time when your pet is especially active!
