So i think im gonna start the groundwork for doing some professional pet photography. Im actually planning to do "Virtual pet photography".
I need some assistance here, im getting better and better at extractions and photoshop touchups and ive done a couple decent dog portraits off regular photos and i need to work on my technique with other dogs and cats.
if you have a dog, or a cat, can you snap a photo of it in RAW and email it to me? Ill email you back the work i have done for your own use, but i would like to use the pic in a album to showcase my work.
The pic needs to meet the following criteria for now.
1) either laying down sideways and looking at camera, sitting straight up or sitting sideways.
2) I need the background to be relativly plain but it doesent have to be "bluescreened"
3) please shoot it in RAW for me.
4) animal needs to be on a flat surface, and i dont want it angled down, i want the pic to be taken at the dog or cats level.
5) i will give a shot at more complicated poses, but i would preffer something generic for now while i nail down the workflow and techniques.
im hoping once i get good enough i can start charging a 30-40 bucks and delivering the customer a framed 8x11 of thier pet that looks like a pro doggie shoot. Once i get better and have my workflow down ill figure out the actual price and probably be able to crank them out pretty fast.
help me out! ill do yer dogs for free.... god how fucked up does that sound?
