Pets!

Taking good pictures of your pets can be very difficult. Anderson Photography wants to share some tips with you to get those great pictures!

Lighting:
               The best possible lighting is achieved outside in natural light. Try to do this even if your pet is an indoors only pet. If not possible to have your pet outside, have your pet next to a large window.
Avoid direct sunlight, as it can alter natural coloring and increase the contrast between shadow and light hiding some of the features.

Having sharp eyes is important in any kind of portraits photography. As they say, “Eyes are the Window to the Soul” and pets eye can be very expressive. So make sure to focus on your pet’s eyes and keep the tack sharp.
It is very important that you pet feels comfortable and at ease, so instead of forcing him to come to you go to him. Most important is to get down to his level; We all know how a dog looks when viewed from above, this is the way we always see them. Show us the way they see world! Sit on the floor or lie on your belly and remember to shoot from HIS/HER eye level or below.

We hope these worked for you, if you would like more tips check out this link below!

Macro Photography

Today, I decided to practice some more on my Macro(close-up) photography. I have these curtains in my dining room that have some tassel bell type things hanging from them. So i came up with this image in my head. Thought it out and started shooting.

Now-a-days, there are many different kits that you can buy to help capture great close-ups. Such as a close-up lens, sometimes called a close-up filter. Its non expensive and it just screws right onto your standard lens. Be sure to have a filter wrench on hand just incase it decides to get stuck! Another option is something called a lens tube. It extends the distance from the lens and the image sensor. The longer the distance, the more magnified the image.

So anyways, since it's been snowing and there aren't many good looking plants around. I decided to try and find something that was indoors. Once I found the curtains details, I used the provided Macro setting on my Nikon D3000. Here is what it looks like.

I will be more than happy to provide some tips for anyone who would like to try Macro Photography! Just send me an e-mail at APHOTO1809@gmail.com

We hope everyone had a great holiday! Anderson Photography is working on some new things. We are going to start making another contest that will start some time after New Years. Keep an eye out for the details, and prize.
