They're members of the family--faithful Fido, precious tabby, perhaps a gerbil, guinea pig, or bunny. Shouldn't they be part of your picture collection, too? But photographing animals can be a challenge, especially if they become frightened or nervous. Capture that lasting portrait of your treasured pet with the help of a professional who has an in-depth knowledge of both photography and animal behavior. He assumes no prior knowledge--and any camera will do. Most important is the ability to "see" a good picture, and his remarkable photos and tricks of the trade will teach you how. Understand your pet's body language; begin to understand the finer points of composition and lighting; choose a suitable background, indoors or out; catch the animal in motion; try the "digital solution;" and much more. Best of all: you'll find that even when the best laid plans fail, the results can still prove delightful!

Pretty Good Guide,
By
This review is from: How to Photograph Pets (Hardcover)
This is a pretty good little guide for photographing pets in a natural environment. Studio portraits of pets is not this book's strong suit. The author chooses to photograph animals outdoors and at play.
This is more a book for pet owners who want to improve their personal pet photography. There isn't a lot here for a professional photographer.

Little Usable Information,

This review is from: How to Photograph Pets (Hardcover)
Nothing very innovative and very little information. More of a coffee table book although the picture on the cover is the best one in the whole book. Everything seems a little outdated but what should I expect with a copyright of 2002? Also I'm not sure why this book is priced so high. I bought it used and it's in pretty rough shape and still $15.

This review is from: How to Photograph Pets (Hardcover)
This book is absolutely fantastic!! It's packed with tons of useful hints, tips and ideas for the aspiring pet photographer! Lots of beautiful photographs that illustrate the techniques he uses. It also includes a glossary for terms that you may not know. The book is a hardcover and is beautifully put together.
It was a bit larger than I thought it would be, but that isn't an issue. Nick Ridley did an excellent job! I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about pet photography!! A++++++!!!!
