Here is a little secret: rules are meant to be broken. The previous post mentioned the importance of photographing pets at eye level. But if an image communicates emotion to the viewer, then nothing else matters. What are you waiting for? Practice!
In every type of portraiture, we want to show the subject’s personality. This is even more important in pet photography. One of the ways to tell their story is by making sure we photograph them at eye level. It helps us see the world the way they see it. So lift them up or get down on your knees. Look at them at eye level and see the difference!
