With the traditional wedding season drawing to a close it seems people are beginning to look towards Christmas – and more and more people are asking for high quality pictures of their favourite pets, either for themselves, or as a gift for their loved ones.
Helen called me, and arranged for me to photograph her father’s two cats for her as a surprise gift for him. She was looking for studio style portraits taken on a classic white backdrop at her parents’ home. Gorgeous though the moggies undoubtedly are, they had their own ideas about “posing” for the camera (as is quite normal for cats) so there followed the now familiar antics of placing/replacing/teasing/bribing/encouraging the cats to cooperate for the shots we had in mind!
Although it always requires a little patience for this type of shot, I hope you’ll agree that a little perseverance is worth it for the shots below…
Once we had our shots of Dad’s cats Helen brought down her own and we fired off a number of shots of him too. Sweet.
