Location
This photo was taken at my family home in Tonbridge. I’m a hobby photographer and loved taking photos of our Labrador Rosie.Time
This was take in the late afternoon in the middle of summer.Lighting
Our dog loved to sunbathe but I waited until the sun wasn’t directly on her face so that her eyes wouldn’t be squinting.Equipment
This was shot with a Nikon D3400 with no flash on.Inspiration
Our dog was getting on in age and I wanted to capture every second we had with her. I particularly love this photo because even though it’s in black and white you can still clearly see the little grey beard she had.Editing
I always edit my photos slightly to ensure the colours come through. I then used a monochrome filter ensuring the black and white tones were bold and not completely washed out.In my camera bag
For taking photos of dogs I always had some treats ready and waiting to get their attention.Feedback
Take photos of your pets while you can even if they look silly, sometimes their personalities can shine through in the darkest of moments.
