Austin, Texas photographer Silver Bee Photography helps their readers get the most out of their pet photography session.

Austin, TX -- (SBWire) -- 11/24/2014 --In their blog Silver Bee Photography helps their readers prepare for their pet photography session by giving them 8 tips for success. No stranger to pet photography Silver Bee Photography explains that, “pet photography is a great way to immortalize the animal who as filled a place in someone's heart... However, getting that perfect shot is not always easy”. Hiring a pet photographer can take care of this task and is especially important if the shoot involves young children. The 8 basic tips Silver Bee Photography provides will help clients get the most out of their session.

Silver Bee Photography advises professional and casual photographers alike to get outside and “explore the great outdoors,” while taking pictures of animals. Pictures of animals in their natural environment are authentic. “There is something so beautiful about pets taking an afternoon sunbath, the golden rays glistening off their soft fur,” says Silver Bee Photography.

Silver Bee Photography also suggests capturing the expressive features of a pet by focusing the camera on the pet's eyes. After all, “eyes are the windows into the soul,” says Silver Bee Photography.

The third tip is to, “Get on their level.” Pictures of a pet's back are boring and lack imagination. Instead, the camera should be aimed at the pet's eye level, or even below. This may require sitting or laying on the floor.

The next tip is to, “Tell as story.” Like photos of people, photos of pets should reflect their personalities. If the owner chooses to go through a professional, Silver Bee Photography suggests telling the photographer everything he or she knows about the pet's behavior. This will allow the photographer to capture the animal's unique attributes.

Tip number 5 is to “get up close and personal.” A few shots should be taken with the pet's face framing the photo. “Head shots like these are the perfect accompaniment to office desks and lockers,” says Silver Bee Photography.

Tips 6 and 7 are to, “Master the element of surprise” and, “Enjoy yourself.” Pet owners and pet photographers understand that pets can be unpredictable. Silver Bee Photography says an easy trick is to allow the animal to do as they want until the photo is ready. “Motion for someone to call his name or whistle. The sudden noise will get his attention and allow you a few seconds to capture the animal in a nice, alert posture,” says Silver Bee Photography.

Another great tip is not to rush the animal or push them too hard. Instead, owners should relax and enjoy their time with their animal. If one approach doesn't work, they should try something else and keep snapping photos.

Silver Bee Photography's final tip is, “Don't forget the treats.” Pet owners can help their photographer by preparing a few of their pet's favorite treats for the session. Pets will be enticed to look in the right direction if a delicious snack is dangling in their sights.
