We’ve spoken of auto grouping methods before. Baskets, boxes and even rolling up fabric can be used to group multiple animals in a shot. The smaller the container, the closer you can get them.

Besides offering you a look at the most beautiful Yorkie coat I’ve photographed, I post Sister again today to show the timelessness a sepia-treated photograph can present. Another photo of Sister can be viewed on Girls Just Want To Have Fun. Are these folks lovely or what! Posing a large group of dogs like this is a little challenging, but having their human in the frame makes it easier. Their mom has rescued each of them from different sources; the latest – Lucy – was rescued from under the building where she works. It took many [...] It’s true that you can overwhelm your composition with too many props. This one is right on the verge of such, but look…if you’ve ever walked the streets of the French Quarter you may have seen a picture something like this on every street corner.

I need to remind those who still want to get in to be eligible for entry into the 2010 Greyhound Pets of America – Louisiana Chapter calendar to make an appointment today. Time is running out. The deadline for calendar portraits is August 16th. It’ not [...] With great sadness, Sisters Pet Pics adds another soft and treasured dog soul to our list of friends who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge.
