OK, I've been wanting to do this photo for about a month now and I was going to drag out the Gentlemen House Cats for it but lucky me, I got Puppy instead! Puppy's owner contacted me for a holiday shoot and because Puppy had just come back from the groomer, well, sooner was better than later.
As usual, I brought along some seamless paper and created a studio inside the owner's home. That works out great for a photo session with dogs -- or cats -- because that's where the pet is most comfortable... in the home.
By the way, this is my ultramarine blue seamless paper, I just love it, it's so versatile and animals look great against it. I had in mind "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear" when I selected it for a holiday background. Simple, clean, elegant. Same with the bone color. Something about it just works to photograph pets against. I like it better than white, truth be told.
Anyway, I had a bunch of holiday props and that worked out great. Puppy was quite a trooper. We did it fast... four different setups in about an hour and I think some pretty good Christmas cards are going to be made out of Puppy's photo session.
