Post Your Pets!

Denise...Sammy is lookin' good. Glad to hear he's being a trooper as well. Great picture.

With times being as tight as they are I had to pick up an extra gig on the weekends hopefully just for the holidays. I'm the pet photographer at Petco for the Pets Unleashed photo company. Things I said I would never do have come to light. I haven't worked an eight hour day like the ones I did last week in a long time. At least I don't have to use my own equipment.

What's that rule about not working with children or pets?
Set up the whole thing properly beforehand, with the camera on the tripod with the cable-release, manual focussed. With the speedlite on the side pointing at the exact-right spot on the ceiling, with the right ratio of onboard:speedlite. With the aperture perfect to get the right DOF on the subject and blurry-enough background. Even with a bit of food hidden to keep her occupied and interested while I snapped away.

...

and then the stupid thing just wouldn't hold still in the pose I wanted.

edit: and that really does look a lot fuzzier than on my comp, even the shrunk version. Guess i'm going to have to figure out how to get a flickr...

Some cute pics from the day and a snake.

Great shot Denise---Now that's a happy pooch

Brody is getting to be less puppy and more a handsome young dog.
