Tip one is to prepare beforehand. Before you start taking your Shar Pei pictures, you should run through a mental checklist of everything you need: a fresh memory card with plenty of storage capacity so you won’t want to get a memory card full message when your dog finally strikes the perfect pose, plenty of fresh batteries, and any treats, backdrops and props you want to use. Decide whether you’ll take pictures of your Shar Pei indoors or outdoors. When shooting outdoors, secure the location so your Shar Pei can’t run into traffic if you lose control of the dog.
Decide whether to take your Shar Pei pictures indoors or outdoors or both. If you choose an indoor setting, make sure there is enough lighting, and set up any backdrops or props you will need. If you photograph your dog outdoors, secure the area for your pet’s safety.
Tip two is to get some help. You’ll have plenty to do once you start taking pictures of your Shar Pei. You can only do one thing at a time, and your attention needs to be focused on your work behind the camera - no pun intended. You need at least one extra set of hands to manage your Shar Pei, comb its coat, wipe its eyes, arrange the backdrops around it, and watch out for its safety, especially if you are taking your Shar Pei pictures out of doors.
Tip four is to use props. Props can make your Shar Pei pictures special. Props are especially important when you are taking pictures of a puppy, and you want to emphasize the dog’s youth and small size. Colorful dog toys are popular choices for props, as are stuffed animals, oversize shoes and potted flowers.
Tip five is to take pictures at your dog’s eye level. Don’t take Shar Pei pictures from a standing position. Get down until you are eye level with your Shar Pei, and then start taking your pictures. Candid shots and the portrait shots of your dog gazing into the camera will look better if the camera is at eye level with the dog.
Tip five is to get down to your dog’s eye level. The best dog pictures are taken at eye level with the dog. If you can, sit on the floor with your Shar Pei and take pictures. If you’ve been taking pictures of your dog while standing up, you’ll be amazed at the difference. Follow this simple advice, and soon you’ll be taking amazing pictures of your Shar Pei.
