Nikki The Saints Fan (Click to enlarge)
You met Nikki as a good citizen in the Good Citizenship post. She’s a tiny sweet Pomeranian who is kept clipped short most of the year. I’ve mentioned this before, but to me Poms seem to have a built-in halo around their heads. I know Nikki does.
On Saturday I was motivated to find a football (namely Saints football)-themed photo to show you because it was pre-season game day. Today is kind of an extension of that post. When you photograph dogs in shirts, dresses and jerseys, the designs are usually on the back so they can be seen from above. However, we almost never want a pet portrait taken of a dog’s back from above, so unless we do something about it that cutesey little dress with the sequins in a heart shape won’t be seen by the camera. What to do? Put it on backwards.
I really like the back to front shots that I explained on Saturday, but dogs with short necks might have a difficult time looking over their shoulders, so just put the garment on backwards for the shot. You can use a safety pin to pull the shirt or dress up in the back so the design appears higher on the dog’s chest. Nikki wore hers well, don’t you think?
