Then she suggests focusing on the pets’ personalities. “The best images, in my opinion, are the ones that show personality, not the perfectly sat or standing ‘show’ style photos.”

She also reminds us not to forget to find good lighting for the photoshoot. “On the technical side of things, whether you’re using a phone or camera, you want good and clear light.” Lastly, she recommends getting on the same level as the animal. “You can use a squeaker to get their attention,” she adds.
