Tips & Tricks
1. Encourage your pets to look right into the camera to show off their eyes and personality
- 
- Try holding a treat or toy next to your camera to get their attention
 
 
2. Pets photograph best in bright, natural light
- 
- If taking a photo indoors, try putting your pet by a window or turn on a few extra lights (even during the day!)
 
 
3. Portraits of pets sitting, standing, or lying down are usually the easiest and most successful photos
- 
- “Action shots” are often blurry and take a lot of extra time to get “just right”
 
 
4. Share photos just as they come out of your camera or phone
- 
- Editing photos, changing sizes, or creating collages limits how they can be used on different social media sites
