Are you all set to photograph your pet? Already scheduled a professional photography session for your dear pet? Awesome! We at Magicdow being one of the most reputable pet portrait photography Singapore services understand that pet photography isn’t that easy as it sounds! It requires a lot of preparation while your photo session day approaches. So if the day of the pet photo session is approaching quickly, then check out some of the expert tips that we share with all our clients during their pet portrait photography in Singapore.
- Groom your Pet
Depending on the dog breed you have and the look you prefer, the grooming needs will vary for sure. Therefore, plan your dog’s grooming well in advance. In case your dog is scruffy around the face, we recommend you trim off the hairs around the eyes. But make sure not to keep the date of the grooming appointment and photo session near to each other.
- Bathe Your Pet
Give your pup a good bath to make him look his best in front of the camera. If your dog is of an active kind then make sure to bathe him the day before to ensure that he is as clean and shiny as possible. Also, we advise you to limit the opportunities your dog has to become dirty on the photo session day along with bringing pet grooming wipes for last-minute touch-ups.
- Trimming up the Nails
Long nails of your furry friend can pose health concerns and present a less-polished look in the final artwork of your lovely dog. So we suggest you trim the nails of your dog in the week of your photo session. You can hire pros for that or you can do it at home!
- Practice Sit
Brush up on basic commands a little to ensure that your professional dog photography Singapore session goes smooth. Prior to the photoshoot day, you can train your dog with a handful of treats and reward him for obeying your commands. Make sure to extend the period of time he holds the Sit position. You can also work on stay, lay down, or shake!
- Exercise and Rest
Whether you should make your dog exercise or let him rest depends on the personality of your furry friend. If he is a laid-back pet who spends more time napping then let him take ample rest before the photo session. On the other hand, if your dog is an active one then the best way to prepare him for the photo session is to let them exercise or take him out for a walk. However, make sure not to tire him completely out! We assure you that we will capture the true personality and expressions of your dog regardless of the personality.
- A Lighter Meal Before the Photo Session
Feed your dog in a smaller portion so that he doesn’t feel heavy during the photoshoot. Also, if your dog is food motivated, it will be a great benefit for our photo session as we can bribe him and click him comfortably!
