High-quality photo tips

No need for expensive cameras, a good mobile works just as fine, provided that images are:

  • Example of poor lighting for pet portrait: photo of donkey face in full shadow, not well lit.
  • Example of good lighting for pet portrait: cow calf face well lit with clear eyes and contrast.

  • 1. Well-lit & contrasted

    Natural light. Good balance between highlights and shadows.
  • Example of poor eye visibility for pet portrait: dog photo taken from above, eye color and expression not visible.
  • Example of clear, in-focus eyes for pet portrait: close-up of cat face with detailed, well-contrasted eyes.

  • 2. Eyes visible & in focus

    Because... the eyes are the mirror of the soul!
  • Example of poor focus for pet portrait: two sheep facing each other, out of focus.
  • Example of proper focus for pet portrait: two sheep facing each other, in clear focus.

  • 3. No pixelation or blurriness

    Face features must be clearly visible.
  • Example of obstructed view for pet portrait: bird perched on branch partially blocked by another branch.
  • Example of unobstructed view for pet portrait: bird perched on branch fully visible with no obstructions.

  • 4. No obstruction

    No photo filters, no objects in the way.
