Digital Pet Portrait From Photos

By Krystal Branch


Making pet portraits is a very popular hobby that a lot of animal lovers would do simply because they would definitely love a picture of their cat or dog hanging on their walls. Of course doing this would entail a lot of knowledge when it comes to photography and some photoshop skills. So for those who are lovers of their pets or animals in general, then they would want to try to make a digital pet portrait from photos.

Now before one would make some really good portraits of animals, he would be needing a good setup first. The setup is very important because this would include the background of the picture as well as the things around the area. So one has to have a good setup of the background as well as the entire environment as it will be the main thing that will add some charm to the photo.

Of course one would also have to concentrate on giving a good angle to the subject. Good angles will add a fresh new view on the subject of the picture as it would show the viewers a new way of looking at the pets that are inside. So as a photographer, one has to make sure that he knows how to make use of all the angles in order to create a very nice photograph.

Determining the position is also extremely important because the animal has to be put in the right part of the frame. Now one rule that all photographers would usually observe would be to never put anything in the middle. This is simply because the middle is considered a dead center where nobody looks.

Another trick when it comes to photographing animals would be to get them in moods that do not usually come out. For example, one may put a squeak toy in front of the animal to amuse it and then snap a picture at the right moment. This will definitely be a very beautiful photograph for anyone to look at.

Now when it comes to lighting, photographers would also have to study how to utilize light to their advantage. Lighting is what will add to the charm of the picture and make it look good. Of course if one uses bright lights, he can show energy in the photograph, but if he uses dark light, the setting becomes somewhat calm and serious.

Now one of the most important parts of this process would actually be the photo editing part. This is one of the most important parts because this is where one would be adding the final touches to the portrait itself. One will be refining the picture by adding some effects or extra things that will appeal to the eyes.

So basically, those are some things that one will be doing if he would want to create a digital pet portrait from photos. Photographing animals is a very interesting hobby simply because one would get to see the wonder of nature up close. Of course one will be able to make a big profit by doing this for clients.
