I read a great article in Dogster.com on taking pet portraits.  The article, titled 10 Tips for Getting Great Photos of Your Dog, provides some helpful hints on how to get those candid, eye-catching shots.  You know how sometimes people have a hard time looking relaxed in photos?  Well dogs do that too.  For instance, I’ve noticed that Toki sometimes has a “camera face” — she’ll have the same expression in every shot.  Check out the article for some good suggestions on how to keep your dog relaxed and smiling for your photos.

And don’t forget to send me some pictures of your pup! : )
