My dog hates having a camera pointed at her, and usually runs away. I wanted a pet portrait, so my son sat her on a bar stool and held her just out of camera frame while I focused and snapped a few photos. This was the only good one before she jumped down.Editing

It was an easy standard portrait set up with the lights. I used a blue-gray canvas backdrop and to get the nice bokeh.
