Here are a few tips to get a great photo with your pet!
- Help your pet relax- Before the photo session begins
give your pet lots of attention, let them play with a favorite toy or give
them a treat.
- Get their attention- Try to get their attention by
making an interesting sound (a squeaky toy often works well) but resist
calling your pet's name, or they may come running to you.
- Don’t use a flash- Use the manual settings on your
camera to adjust lighting or choose to take the photos outside in the
natural daylight or your pet could wind up with glaring eyes.
- As an alternative to taking the photo yourself, many
rescues and charities offer Photos with Santa at a reasonable cost.
This gives you a great photo and helps save the life of a needy pet.
