SnowDogLove Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Okay, so here's what I am wanting: a photo-shopped picture/portrait of all of my dogs just looking beautiful and well-behaved. Since I have so many I know it would be very difficult to get something like this without hiring a professional photographer again, which to be honest wasn't the best success the last time I did it, I really need to look into a dog photographer next time... So I would like to take some "glamour shots" of each of my dogs, roughly from the same distance away so to make a cohesive photograph and was wondering if there was anyone on here that would be able to photo-shop the pictures together for me to make one nice portrait of all of them? I would be willing to pay a small fee if that's what it takes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then a wide angle shot of the background you'd like them placed in without any dogs etc Then I can compile the image for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDogLove Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 I will do my best! Does anyone have camera recommendations by the way? I've got what I thought would be a nice digital camera, I think it's a Nikon or something like that, but it doesn't seem to take the best pictures unless I'm outside with natural light. Even then, ho hum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends how much you have to spend, what model Nikon do you have I have the Nikon P510 it's a few years old but is a great camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDogLove Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Oh gosh, I'm not sure. I don't have it with me right now, I got it from a camera store for like $350-375? I think? I probably would only want to spend up to $400 for a new camera because I really don't use it that much other than for taking pictures of my dogs.

Andy Posted February 20, 2015 Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Do the best you can with what you've got. That amount of $$$ should have got you a decent enough camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDogLove Posted February 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2015 Hmm...maybe I'm not using the right settings then? Are there certain settings on a camera that work best for taking pictures of dogs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
