Guidelines When Taking Horse Photos

By Virginia Wright


Having a set of photographs of your pets is something that most pet owners want. They can either have the photographs framed and used in decorating the home. Alternatively, they can just use the photographs as a souvenir that they can hold on to remind them of their pets. Here are some of the things to keep in mind when taking Horse photos.

Lighting is very important when taking photographs. The area needs to be well lit for clear and beautiful pictures. Areas that are lit by bright lights will result in photographs that are either over exposed or have harsh shadows. Improperly setting up the camera will also result in the over exposure and washing out of some areas in the photograph.

It is also important that you get the automatic cameras instead of depending on the manual ones. This is because with the automatic cameras you are not expected to balance a lot of settings and still get the best photographs. However, for an experienced and trained photographer, they can opt to get shots using the complex set of settings needed to operate the camera.

The flash element is common in many of the modern cameras. However, the flash leads to photographs with a red eye. The photograph is taken to the digital lab that deals in photography to remove the red eye to remove the red eye. The advantage of the flash is that it will capture the accurate shading and texture of the fur and coats of the pets in a way that may not be captured on an overcast day.

Taking the photograph of the pets may be a difficult task especially if the pet is not well trained. To make it easier for you to take a photograph of the pet, you need to have some supplies on hand that will help you take a photograph of the pet. Some of the things you will need to keep the pet in place includes treats, helping hands, toys and a lot of patience.

At times, you may need the animal to face the camera directly; this can be achieved through using treats or toys to have their eyes focus on the camera. Doing this and taking the photograph will prove to be a difficult task thus a helping hand in carrying either one of these activities will make it easier for you to take the photographs.

To add life to the photograph by showing animal expressions, you can use sound stimulation to achieve this effect. This involves using different and weird sounds to force a reaction on the animal. A few of the expressions by pets is cocking the head to one side, ear propping and brightening of the eyes. By using sounds, you are thus able to convince the pet into using expressions.

To get the best photographs from the session, you first need to ensure that the pet is completely relaxed and comfortable. Stressed and anxious pets are not willing participants in any photo sessions. For stubborn pets, it is best to have someone else handle the pet as one takes the photograph. Furthermore, the background can be easily removed. Thus the unnecessary parts can be removed.
