Photographing black dogs is not for the faint of heart! There are so many challenges… the density of the black fur, lighting, deciding whether to shoot close up or far away, and most importantly managing all these things while trying to capture the dog’s personality, which is mission #1. Obe was such a sweet, patient, beautiful portugese water dog I wanted so badly to be able to capture his personality. He was a dark black with white markings and his fur had such a beautiful texture. He strutted proudly around my studio with a yellow frisbee in his mouth and kept pawing at my leg to get attention. He sat perfectly still waiting for his treats and gave me such beautiful looks. I hope I managed to present his proud and distinguished personality!
