Question:
Well I have finally started working on my own website for my chinchillas (yea!) and was wondering if I could bug you all for advice. I find alot of sites out there have very poor quality photos of their animals (and me being anal about how my animals are viewed) I want to make sure that the pictures on my site are of quality and truely represent the animal. So, what do you find are the best techniques to use to get a quality/clear shot? I know alot of people prefer natural light. Would taking them outside and placing them on a neutral backdrop (ie piece of white bristol board) be best? Or doing the same inside with artificial lighting? Oh, I'm also working on my grooming to make sure their fur is in good condition before taking the photos. I hate greasy looking pics too!
