I try to keep the props to a minimum. I like photographing dogs in the studio, but I don’t want to approach “kitsch”. The client wanted to document her Dane puppy’s size at the age of only 4 months. He has such an expressive face that I thought paring it down and keeping it simple was the way to go. This was taken with 1 light and a reflector so you can do a lot with just a little equipment.
