Show Dogs…

November 4, 2009

show-dogsI think everyone knows how much I LOVE to do advertising photos of show animals. It has its own special set of skills and trials. You must be able to capture the very best of the animal you are photographing. A photographer can take a stunning dog and make it look awful, if photographed at the wrong angles.

It can happen to any of us. When I say I have a 100% satisfaction guarantee, I mean it. I can make mistakes. I can have a bad day, the animal may be having a bad day. I want not only you to be satisfied, I want the subject to shine!

Isaac is a gorgeous young male whippet. His first shoot was sorta “meh” and we didn’t come up with much that any of us loved. So, I redid the shoot and now we have a bunch we all love!

If you would like to see the ad that was done from these, go to Ewhippetzine and have a look!



Yes, I am still working on photos. I promise, I am working on them from the time I get the kids off to school until I go to bed at night. Between Randy and I we had around 25 THOUSAND photos. I am not being silly or exaggerating. As I have written before, to bring the best quality, I am deleted bad photos(blurry, wrong timing, whatever) and trying to crop a few here and there.

Due to the sheer number of photos, I am breaking my own cardinal rule of not showing unfinshed photos. Please look at the photo knowing it probably has not been touched and that it can be cropped, or color corrected(if incorrect) Use your imagination of what it will look like after it is purchased. I hate to do that, as it is not the ‘right’ way. I know everyone is anxious to see them though.

If you have an ad deadline, please please let me know. I am working with a few magazines that have immediate print deadlines and if you want something for a print ad, I will do my best to help!

Do not forget to enter your code “Whippet” into the coupon box and validate it. Do this before you check out. Enter it and click “Validate” It will take the 15% off. It will not take off the early discount without doing this.

I have had a lot of questions on how to order photos for the flipbook. Click on the size flipbook you would like and then use “image selector” to choose the photos for it. I know it is sorta confusing, but, that is the best way I could figure to make it work. I am always here to help.

I hope to have alllll the photos up by tomorrow at the latest. No promises, but, I will let you all know. I have also extended the 15% discount until May 5th. Just to help out a little. It really makes a difference when ordering!

There are going to be some mistakes on the categories of photos. Especially the non regular classes. I am pretty sure I have the stud dog/extended generation waaaaay messed up. Just look through the classes if you have problems finding your dog. I am doing my best, but, unfortunately I am not infallible :)

Back to work and here are a few candids
