Learn to create amazing, charming, and compelling dog photographs with Kaylee Greer, commercial dog photographer and host of Nat Geo Wild's Pupparazzi! If you want to learn to create pictures that truly capture a dog’s personality—whether that’s playful, cute, whimsical, shy, goofy, strong, or beautiful—you’ve come to the right place. If you’re a professional photographer looking to up your game or an amateur who just wants to take better pictures of your best bud, Dogtography is your guide to capturing jaw-dropping photographs that are filled with heart and soul. And there is no better teacher than Kaylee Greer, a widely published commercial photographer who teaches pet photography workshops around the world and is host of Nat Geo Wild’s “Pupparazzi,” an original television series that focuses on her life and career. Dogtography is packed with great information and—just like Kaylee and her photographs—an infectious personality. In this book, you’ll learn all of Kaylee’s hard-earned tricks of the trade, including her camera settings, lens choices, and how she picks great locations. You’ll also learn all about: • “Speaking dog”—understanding body language, respect, and safety • What’s in Kaylee’s camera bag and treat bag (squeakers, snacks, and toys)! • Getting the best expressions and poses during a shoot • How to create a great action shot • Techniques for finding your style and enhancing your creativity • Kaylee’s tried-and-true shot ideas You’ll also learn Kaylee’s method for picking the best images from a shoot, plus her post-processing techniques to finish off a shot, including general retouching, making eyes sparkle, and the all-important leash removal!

Отрывок из книги

The brightest light on four legs.

Who knew that the very thing that people search their whole lives for, I would find in you? Like glittering plunder, I’ve unearthed the world’s single greatest treasure from the back of a shelter cage. Wiggling. Wagging. With an untold gift inside your heart. Flickering inside your eyes, I’ve discovered a once-in-a-lifetime tincture made of 1,000 shades of light that could heal every wound of human madness. It’s the kind of love that could move the earth and sky. The kind of love that reminds you exactly what a gift it is to be alive and breathing. The kind of love that serves to be the reason we’re all here, wandering the earth wide-eyed, adventuring through these grassy fields, tromping along through city streets in frenzied search of one thing. Our reason. All of humanity’s reason. And you and I, we smirk together, because we know we’ve found the secret. A secret made of courage, kindness and bravery. You are the living embodiment of the power of second chances. No physical limitations of earth, space, or sky could keep me away from you. You are the kind of soul that I will wait for in the stars one day. You are my forever.
