“Where in this world can man find nobility without pride, friendship without envy, or beauty without vanity?”
– Ronald Duncan (1914-1982)
After taking photos of my friend Anna’s dogs, and meeting Laura Spellman and her two Yorkshire Terriers, I’ve decided that pet photography is definitely something I want to pursue. They say never work with children or animals, but both of those types of photography give the most natural and spontaneous results. It’s really nice to be able to capture the animal’s personality; whether it’s with a freeze frame action shot or a more restful portrait approach. It’s amazing how much nobility and character is communicated in an animal’s gaze, and I really enjoy the challenge of taking photos when you don’t really know what could happen next.
If anybody is interested in having some pet photos taken please contact me as I’m keen to expand my portfolio. It doesn’t have to be dogs or cats, in fact the more unusual the better!
