Including your furry friend in your wedding photos can add a special touch to your special day. However, it’s important to make sure that your dog is well-groomed and prepared for the wedding day and/or photoshoot.
First, let’s talk about grooming. You want your dog to look their best in the photos, so it’s important to give them a good bath and a haircut, depending on their breed, before the wedding day. You may also want to consider taking your dog to a professional groomer to ensure they look their best for photos you will cherish for a lifetime.
Once your dog is looking their best, it’s time to think about the photoshoot. Here are some tips for taking great photos with your furry friend…
Choose a location
If you are hoping to include your dog in your wedding photos at your venue, make sure the venue allows pets! If you aren’t bringing your furry friend to the venue, decide on a location for the photoshoot that’s safe for your dog and has plenty of space for them to move around. You may want to consider a park or a beach that is dog friendly.
Bring treats
Make sure to bring plenty of treats to keep your dog motivated and focused during the photoshoot. There are quite a few options for low-calorie trainings treats that are perfect for these occasions to avoid overfeeding your pup. You may also want to bring their favorite toy to help keep them entertained.
Use a leash
Even if your dog is well-behaved and trained, it’s always a good idea to keep them on a leash during the photoshoot if you are outside or in high foot-traffic areas. This will help to ensure their safety and prevent them from running off or getting distracted.
Get creative
Don’t be afraid to get creative with the photos. Try different poses and angles to capture the best shots of you, your fiancé, and your furry friend. Also try to fit in more casual and abstract photos into your shoot with your pup, they are often some of the best!
Have fun
Most importantly, remember to have fun! We know you wedding and wedding photos are stressful enough without your pets, but including every bit of your family on your wedding day is so special. Taking photos with your dog can be a great way to make memories and celebrate your special day together.
In conclusion, taking wedding photos with your dog can be a fun and memorable experience. Just make sure to groom your dog beforehand and follow these tips for a successful photoshoot. With a little preparation and creativity, you’ll have beautiful photos that you’ll treasure for years to come.
