michelle a. Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 On June 2nd I'm photographing a wedding where their dog is going to be includedin the proceedings. It's one of those little (EDIT) LOL apparently that breedof dog is a bad word for PNet.... I'm really looking forward to this one,because of the dog! Anyway, from past experience in doing family portraits that have includedcanines... I know that dogs can be far more difficult than two year olds! I'm looking for ideas on how to incorporate their pet into the photos.... Pleaseshow me your photo examples that you've done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin cook - stratford upo Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I had a wedding last year where the couple wanted their dog involved. It was a story book album so I dedicated two pages and attach one of them here. We encouraged the dog to run around to shoot the backdrop image in this example.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurenm Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hi Michelle. I would love to do a wedding with a dog ring bearer! if I were to get married tomorrow, I'd have my dog as ring bearer. One immediate thought was I would like at least one nice portrait of the three of us. bring a squeaky toy, have the "parents" posed and looking at camera and use the squeaky to get the dog to look. You may even bring some treats to get him/her to do what you want. Couple kissing with dog inbetween maybe also kissing them or her. Depending on who's dog it is maybe some kind of shots of the dog somehow coming between them? close up of hands with rings with dog? can't think of specific ideas but have fun I'm jealous! Please share them here after! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
