How To Take Quality Winter Puppy Pictures

Do you like to take pictures of your furry puppy friend? If you do, you may need to know a few things that can help you get quality puppy pictures out of your camera. Summertime pictures are always so cute and come out really good because of the camera’s settings. Does that mean the ones in winter won’t be as good? Not at all. As long as you adjust the settings for your camera, you can get wonderful winter pictures that will bring you a lifetime of memories for you of your puppy while improving your photography skills at the same time.

Listed below are some tips that can help you take good pictures all year long.

Be sure you check your camera’s white balance settings. If you don’t want your puppy too dark or too bright, this is very important to check. Most cameras out on the market will automatically check this setting. However, if you don’t have one that does this, learning this skill can help you adjust these settings based on the type of environment you are taking the picture in. To get the kind of effect you want, tweak the settings.

Camera Flash

Most cameras also come with a flash. Use it to your advantage. Flashes on a camera can give you the colors you want while avoiding the uneven colors and shades that come in some pictures. For instance, if you take a picture of snow, it can come across as a white spot without a flash. However, with the flash settings, you can get the snow. When you are adjusting the flash settings, adjust your contrast and color settings as well. If you are taking puupy pictures in the snow, you want the puppy in the foreground and the snow in the background. If you want a vast array of puppy pictures, dress him up in different kinds of clothes. Put him beside a Christmas tree that will magnify these pictures.

Shutter Speed

Be sure you let the puppy play in the snow as you take your pictures. You get the most memory for your buck with these kinds of pictures. Be sure your shutter speed is on the right setting for these kinds of pictures. You don’t want your picture to be blurry. If you aren’t sure, try different settings so you know which ones will make the picture quality outstanding.
