Best Practices For Taking Yorkshire Terrier Pictures

by Susan Bailey

Yorkshire Terriers are so photogenic. They are the perfect dogs for photography. Have you ever wished you can take professional quality pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier? There's no need for you to purchase expensive camera equipment to take great pictures of your dog. Technological advances, and price decreases, mean you can take great photos of your Yorkshire Terrier with an inexpensive digital camera or even a camera phone.

Taking pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier can be a fun activity for you and your dog to do together. The beautiful Yorkshire Terrier breed, with its silky coat, is a natural subject for portrait photography. Your dog can look terrific in pictures whether you use the very latest in high-tech digital cameras or an inexpensive camera phone.

Your dog only has a certain amount of patience, so get everything ready beforehand. Put fresh high-capacity memory storage card in your digital camera, replace the batteries and carry fresh batteries with you.

Start with fresh batteries. Decide whether you'll take pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier inside or outside, and secure the location if you decide to shoot outside. Make sure all your backdrops and props are ready and close at hand. Have an idea of the different poses that you want to capture.

When you're trying to take great pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier, you can't also be the one who stages the dog, poses the dog, chases the dog, grooms the dog, lights the dog - do you see what I mean?. Ask a friend who likes your Yorkshire Terrier - and whom your dog likes -- to act as your assistant. After the photo session is over, give your helper a framed print of one of your Yorkshire Terrier photos as a thank you gift.

Believe me, you're hands will be full once you start taking pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier. You can only do one thing at a time and do it well, so focus your attention on taking great pictures. You'll need at least one extra set of hands to manage your Yorkshire Terrier, comb its gorgeous hair, wipe its eyes, arrange the backdrops, and do safety duty, especially if you are taking your Yorkshire Terrier pictures out of doors.

The best Yorkshire Terrier pictures all seem to be at the dog's eye level. Don't be afraid to get down on the floor with your dog and take pictures, or set your dog on a tabletop or bed to raise its height. Remember, safety first! With these great tips, soon you'll be taking amazing pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier. ## Your choice of background can make or break your Yorkshire Terrier pictures, so put plenty of thought into your backgrounds. Cloth backdrops should be matte, not shiny. You might want to use a chromatic green backdrop. With a chromatic green backdrop, your background disappears in digital images, and you can place your Yorkshire Terrier into any backdrop you can find. You can add surf, turf or snow to your picture without every going to the beach, the park or the mountain.

Toys and props not only add interest to your photos, they keep your dog engaged during the photo session. When you're photographing a puppy, the objects will emphasize how small the puppy is and make him or her look even younger. You should always photograph your dog from your dog's eye level, not your eye level. Yorkies are so light and easy to lift, so you can easily put your dog on a tabletop or bed to make it easy to get at eye level. These helpful tips will help you get the very best pictures of your Yorkshire Terrier. - 20511
