I’m Magni with Pauls and Clause photography. And the next few moments I’m gonna talk to you
about location and background. I have found that outdoor settings not only provide the best
lighting, but also provide natural props that create fantastic portraits. However, if weather does
not permit, you can also shoot indoors with a back drop and studio lighting ideal for portraiture.
Now, when choosing a background inside, a general rule to remember are, light backgrounds are
best to produce a delicate effect. Well as dark background are used to produce some more
dramatic effect. However, some pets look nice if you do match the background to the color of
their fur. For example, a tan dog on a tan backdrop would look nice, but be careful though, coz
you want to remember that a black dog would not look good on a black back drop without the
proper lighting. What I have found when choosing a background for outside is you wanna find a
location that is safe and not too distracting to your pet. Keep your pet as far away as possible
from their background, if you do this, the background will be blurry and your pet will become
the main focus of the picture. There are not hard and fast rules here, use your taste and your
imagination. Just be sure that the color of the background doesn’t reflect an unpleasant color cast
back upon your pet.
