Book Synopsis Beautiful Beasties by : Jamie Pflughoeft

Download or read book Beautiful Beasties written by Jamie Pflughoeft and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pet photography is a burgeoning subcategory for professional and hobbyist photographers. As the digital revolution has allowed amateur photographers to begin marketing themselves as low-cost alternatives to professional studios, many professional photographers are expanding their offerings beyond the basic wedding photography and senior portrait photography. As a result of this as well as American's adoration for their pets, pet photography is an increasingly popular offering and a presentation on pet photography at WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers International) trade show in March 2010 drew standing-room only crowds. From lolcats to petfinder.com, Americans are obsessed with their pets. And with 62% of the U.S. population being pet owners, a how-to on pet photography is a long overdue guide. In Unleashed: Techniques for Digital Pet Photography, Vicki Taufer will teach photographers how to capture appealing pet portraits. While portrait books are a mainstay of the digital photography category, there are currently no serious pet photography books available on the market. And as the pet photography business grows, photographers are increasingly looking for a handbook to teach them not only how to capture great pet portraits, but also how to work through the unique challenges of working with pets and their owners. This book will cover all that and more, as well as provide stunning examples of Vicki's own pet portraits.

Book excerpt: Nice Nosing You presents Elke's expressive portraits of her much-loved dogs; a collection compiled over two years in what became a personal and touching project for Elke and her husband, Carsen. One year on Christmas day, Elke's three dogs suddenly started barking outside the bathroom door. Investigating the commotion, Elke discovered Carsen collapsed in the bathroom. He had suffered a major brain hemorrhage and the dogs had in fact saved his life, discovering him at a crucial time. The months immediately following were filled with much uncertainty, and in an attempt to establish some sort of routine and find something to lift her husband's mood, Elke started taking photos of their dogs to show Carsen in hospital. Over the next two years, as Carsen slowly recovered, Elke's project became an obsession. Gathered here in a stunning collection, Elke's photographs are captioned with inspiring quotes, illustrating the personal encouragement she and her husband found in these intimate and playful images. Praised by Good Morning America - "people are going nuts over these photos" - and The Huffington Post - "Elke Vogelsang has taken dog portraits to a new level", this is truly a collection to treasure.
