We can apply this same principle as a tip for pet photography where we keep it simple and all unnecessary distractions are avoided.
One of the best tips for pet photography is to keep it simple.
Always consider your background.
A simple background is best for making your precious dog or cat the star of the show!
Try to find a plain and uncluttered background.
Watch out for unwanted distractions.
Watch carefully to make sure that nothing is “sticking out of your pets head.”
Try using the zoom feature on your camera or phone to capture a close up of your pet, essentially cutting out whatever is in the background if it’s ugly or unwanted.
Watch the lighting.
Make sure that there are no harsh shadows to distract from your pet’s natural beauty.
Finally does your dog really need to wear that harness that covers his body and diminishes his or her natural beauty?

When taking photos of your pet, do your best to make it a fun and positive experience for you both. Get your pet used to the camera and the sounds it makes, can help them to feel more comfortable. Give your pet a treat every time the camera makes a noise to help them associate the sound with something positive. Make sure to reward your pet as you take their photo, to make sure it's a positive experience for them. Keep photo sessions short and sweet. Make sure your pet is happy and only take pictures of your pet when they are willing to participate. Capture candid moments rather than asking your pet to pose, look out for moments where you can catch your pet behaving naturally, such as when they're daydreaming.

You don't need them to stay still for 5 minutes it's just a split second when the camera clicks for the shot. Get them in the sit tempt them with the treat for the stay making sure to lower it in line with your camera so they're not looking up to the sky. Get your camera/phone ready for the shot and make the noise you guarantee will get those ears up. Perhaps not cats/squirrel which means they charge off again but I'm sure you've got lots of words you know excites your dog just enough. Mention their best doggy pal going somewhere they love a favourite toy their human grandparents whatever you know will stimulate the perfect look for the camera. Then fire off the shutter button and admire what you've created. Use a second pair of hands as the treat holder so that you can concentrate on taking a photograph but make sure that you make the noise so that you have control of the moment when the shot is taken.
