2. Find The Perfect Location
What better place to take a Christmas card photo than a Christmas tree farm! The location really helps to elevate the photo and set the scene. It's also important to master a pose with your dogs before heading out to the photoshoot. It can be very helpful to kneel down to help make sure the dogs are positioned properly in the photo. Don't forget to add a special touch to your photos with a personalized dog bandanas.
Could this photo be any cuter? No way! This is the perfect combo of picking the right location, using great props, and posing the dogs perfectly. The snow on the ground really gives that Christmas feel. The blanket, Santa hat, reindeer antlers, and personalized bandanas really add that extra special touch to make this photo memorable and iconic.
3. Strike The Perfect Poses
It can be very difficult to pose with two pups, but this is a great example posing done right. When you are just one person, it can be difficult to get two fur babies in one shot. Try kneeling down to your pup's level, and put your arms around them to keep them by your side. Then, all your photographer has to do is get their attention for the perfect shot! This strategy works well with two people as well- each person putting their arm around one dog to keep them in the position you want.
Here is another great example of mastering a cute pose. If you can get pictures in the snow it might be cold, but the end result will be so worth it. If you are struggling to get your dogs to look at the camera you can always try this approach and get them to look at you. As you can see it can turn out super cute!
