Lifestyle Dog Photography

“Glad to see you've made it this far! It has been an honor for me that you have chosen this course to be able to take better photos of your dog. I hope it has met and exceeded your expectations. In the course we have been able to see how to work with dogs, how to prepare them for the session and what we have to take into account to make the experience as pleasant as possible. We have seen how to choose your own style thanks to the light, the colors and the type of locations. I also told you about the importance of creating a good mood board and with which profiles to inspire us, what materials to use and how to prepare both the mobile phone and the camera to take photos with the highest possible quality. You have learned how to light and frame to get different types of photos, and you have seen how I work, how I do street style canine. And finally, I have shown you how I select and retouch the photos and how I get the most out of the feed of Instagram. The most important thing to face the final project is to be very patient with your dog, take it easy and prepare the photos before taking them. Remember that you don't have to choose the same type of light, colors or locations to achieve the objective of the course, which is a homogeneous feed of Instagram, much more professional and with your own style. Take two or three photos in different locations or frames, of a dog alone or with a person or family ... you decide. Upload to the forum the steps you have followed to make one of them and the final result. Also show me a screenshot of how it has been your feed Instagram with photos you've gone up. We are going to review the steps to make your project: Prepare your photo Choose your canine and human models, select a style that defines you and a color palette. Remember the importance of preparing the photo very well before the session. Use a diffused light and play with the frames following my advice.

Photo session After having defined the concept we want and having prepared all the elements, it is time to take the photo. Select and edit your photos After the shooting , select the photo you like the most and retouch it, remember that you can take your photos with both a camera and a mobile phone and retouch them as we have seen in Unit 5 of the course. Upload your photos to Instagram Upload to the forum the process you have followed to take one of your photos. When you have made several, upload them to Instagram and have a feed consistent with your chosen palette and style, also upload a screenshot so I can give you feedback . I wait for you in the forum! You will have me ready to answer your questions, to give you all the advice I can and help you as much as I can. I only ask you to keep in mind that while I continue working day by day on my project, and that I will not always be able to answer at the moment. I will take one day a week to dedicate my body and soul to the forum. And remember, unity is strength. It would be great if together we can generate debates, challenges, proposals ... and help each other, that's what we have come to! A hug! ”
