Behind The Lens
Location
I took this photo at my work, a doggy daycare. I fell in love with this little guy and his special looks and decided to capture his character.Time
I would guess I took this photo sometime in the morning, when the dogs are more into playing and more alert.Lighting
Since I was at work, I only had the lights in the room to work with but I guess it worked just fine. No flash was used.Equipment
I used my favourite camera, my Olympus E-M5 mark II. I mostly work handheld since I want to be able to move freely around the object.Inspiration
My inspiration, as you probably can guess, is this little guys fabulous look. He is such a cute character and he really look like his taken straight from a Star wars movie.Editing
I usually process my photos through Lightroom to fix bad lighting or unwanted accidents or fix colours or so on. Just make the photo a little better!In my camera bag
I always have, except from my camera, an extra lens, extra batteries and cleaning kit. Just to be prepared for anything.Feedback
Just go with your feelings and always be ready to take "that shot" when you work with animals. You need to have a lot of fun and a lot of patience. Be prepared to ta many, many photos to get that one or two good ones. And yes, be generous with treats and they will be more cooperative!
