Dog Photography: Totally Obsessed

Sorry to go all photography obsessed the last few days, but what can I say?  I'm TOTALLY lovin' our new camera!  So far I've been able to find a few photos from each of my photography "sessions" that are worthy of sharing publicly.  I will admit though, some of the photos that I've taken are horrendous and truly show that I actually have no idea what I'm doing behind the camera.  But, I'm working on improving my skills and learning some things about photography along the way.

Below are some of the pictures that I have captured in the past few days:









Thanks to everyone's advice yesterday, I worked with Athena on an indoor photo training session using some yummy treats to keep her attention.  She did really well when I held a treat in my left hand above the camera and asked her to "stay" while I took some pictures.

My next step is to learn to use Photoshop or Lightroom editing software to improve the pictures that didn't turn out so perfect SOOC (Straight Out of the Camera).  See, I'm even learning how to use photography lingo!

    Yay! They are looking really good already - and Photoshop is relatively easy to learn! You will be an old pro before you know it!

    Photography is so much fun and addictive, it's hard not to share your favorite photos! But, I love them so keep putting them up!

    Great photos, I love set of chuck it ball photos. There will always be some that just don't come out the way you want but don't worry it happens to all of us.
