How to make pets quiet and take good-looking photos?

The shooting environment is very important. If you want to take beautiful photos, at least the environment should not be too messy and concise. The light at home is also an indispensable condition for pet photography. The brightness of the environment should be improved as much as possible. When we use SLR to shoot, the bright environment is more suitable for capturing the movements and demeanor of pets.

If you want to show your pet a better side, you might as well bathe your pet before shooting to make it look cuter. You can also prepare pets' favorite snacks and toys in advance, such as frisbee, balls, etc., and you can also shoot pets' light figure when they are outdoors.

It is not suitable to shoot at noon or when the light is strong and the intensity is high. Shooting in strong sunlight will lose the details of pet hair. The best shooting time is before 10 in the morning or after 4 pm, when the sun is soft but bright.

Determine the shooting mode of the camera. When the light is bright, the pet is asleep or it can be determined that the pet will not move quickly, you can use the aperture priority mode to shoot cute pets with a large aperture. Their movements change quickly, and they often get up or jump suddenly at the moment of pressing the shutter. At this time, if the shutter speed is not fast enough, there is no way to freeze the instantaneous action of the pet.
