How to take photos of furry children?

Overhead shot

This is the most common angle for most people to take pictures. In the overhead shot, the dogs look small and adorable!

Especially when looking up from the front, the dog's eyes look up and the eyes are big and the face is short, which will be particularly cute~

Squat down or lie down and shoot from the parallel perspective of the dog, and the photos will be much better.

When we take pictures of people, we choose to take pictures of dogs from above in order to avoid crowds. The same goes for taking pictures of dogs:

Especially the dog’s face taken when placing the phone on the ground is particularly plump, which satisfies the aesthetic needs of some perverted aunties (such as me):

And doesn’t it look like your resentful boyfriend when he’s videotaping you?

The first thing I want to say is that many dogs are too naughty. They really can’t stop for a second and keep circling around you. They move around all the time no matter at home or outside. Therefore, it is difficult for us to capture their wonderful moments. We accidentally photographed a Shiba Inu electric light poison dragon spin.

So at this time, we turn on the continuous shooting on the mobile phone, not only can we get some wonderful moments, but also get a wave of emoticons:

Choose the right angle to take partial close-ups of the dogs' bodies. The unique perspective brings visual freshness to the picture and a hint of mystery~

It would also be fun to dress up the dog with your own props, such as hats, sunglasses and so on.

We can also use our hands as props when taking pictures, letting the dog support its chin and head like a human being. Isn’t it very anthropomorphic? It really looks like that!

Dog mirror selfies are also very popular recently, especially suitable for avatars. Dogs occasionally need mirror selfies for business~

You can also use different props to give your dog a daily OOTD feeling~

The daily life of the shit shovel officer is either playing with dogs or on the way to play with dogs! Isn’t it recently popular to take photos of dogs with a wide angle...

The dogs photographed with the wide angle of the mobile phone all give the impression of a new breed of dog, ugly and cute~

The big nostrils and long mouth that fill the screen are just like the big hippopotamus~

What should I do if my dog doesn’t cooperate with taking pictures?

Many people worry that dogs are not cooperative when taking pictures. In fact, taking pictures of fur babies is very simple. You only need to pay attention to these points:

1. Let the dog calm down before taking pictures. When taking fur babies out, the most common actions of dogs are not sitting down, lying down, running or rolling on the grass. If you want to capture the scene of the fur babies sitting or lying down, you can first spend some time to consume the energy of the fur babies. When they are tired and calm down, you can easily let the dogs sit down and take pictures naturally..

Furry kids are always hard to resist snacks, and nothing can attract their attention more than dog snacks! If you want your dog to stay still or sit down, just take out a piece of biscuit and stick it on the top of the camera or the lens of your mobile phone. After sticking it, let the dog smell it. I believe that they will definitely stare at you with eager and expectant eyes and never leave your sight again.

In addition, during the shooting, prepare a small bag with snacks so that you can reward the furry kids at any time while shooting. This is what they need most to make them obedient! 3. Prepare dog toys

If beginners want to make the shooting process smoother, in addition to preparing snacks to attract furry children, they can also prepare various balls or toys that dogs love most, which are very useful for dealing with dogs that are usually out of control!

■ Author sent: ins @coton_youngsoo First, you can place the ball or toy next to the camera to make the dog think that you want to play a game with it. At this time, you can take pictures of their faces ready to go, or throw the ball out to capture the dog's appearance when chasing the ball or playing with the toy, but remember to set the camera shutter or continuous shooting mode first so as not to miss those precious pictures. Friendly reminder: * Because dogs’ eyes are very sensitive to light, try to avoid flash at the end when shooting. The personality differences between dogs are just like us humans. Each dog has its own personality~

Therefore, in addition to photography skills, another important thing in dog photography is patience! patience! patience!

It can be seen that taking pictures of them is not an easy task, but if the poop collector knows more about photography and practices more, he can quickly improve his pet photography skills. Don't be idle, start taking pictures!
