Animals are often their owners' favorite things. Clients place correspondingly high demands on photographers: although a good photo is quickly taken, the image often lacks the actual character of an animal - in other words, exactly what the owner expects from it.
Only if you are able to portray the character of an animal in your photos will you be able to convince clients of your work . In this course, you will learn how to take characterful animal photos.
The training course is divided into a total of 14 lessons, which use numerous sample images to show you how to capture animals perfectly. Your trainer Nicole Schick will guide you through all relevant aspects of animal photography , from preparing for the shoot to editing the photos afterwards.
Let's start with the technical aspects : Which cameras and lenses are suitable? What additional accessories do you need? And how do you invest what is available in your wallet in the right equipment?
As in other areas of photography, it is important to think about light, focus, the right image section, image composition and scheduling in preparation and to consider the wishes of the customer. Not only will you be given basic tips, but you will also be made aware of all the special features that need to be taken into account when taking pictures of animals. Nicole Schick underpins the explanations with concrete recommendations for action from everyday practice .
When reading the PDFs, you will also repeatedly be made aware of the various challenges involved in indoor and outdoor photography . In the studio, you work with backgrounds, decorative elements, lamps and flashes - outdoors, you encounter weather, light, backlighting and locations that are difficult to control.
