Let's start with the basics. First of all, take your photographs in a well-lit room. This will make your photos visible and clear in resolution. Another good thing about lots of lighting is that some cameras can take action shots. The better the lighting, the more action you can get. But be careful not to have too much light either! Second of all, when taking a picture, hold the camera steady. Sometimes a picture can come out blurry if the camera shakes while taking it. Third of all, if the room is bright, you may not need flash on the camera. The flash could make your cat squint her/his eyes or close them completely. It could also hurt their eyes if it is up close.
Another tip is for close-ups. Like we said before, don't use flash if the picture is close to their face. Also, while doing close-ups, you can hold a toy or rattle a treat bag above the camera to get an alert and excited expression from your cat.
Remember: If your cat doesn't seem to want their picture taken, don't force taking pictures. Just put the camera down and try again later. You could discourage your cat from liking photos if you force them to have their pictures taken.
For the most part, better pictures have your cat looking at the camera. Other tips for better photo quality are the following...
- Try not to get a lot of background in your photo. Your cat should be the main focus of the picture. People who see the picture could get distracted and look more at the background than at your kitty. So zoom in on your pictures. Another way to do it is to crop the pictures on the computer. But that sometimes makes the image really small that it can't be seen as well as if you had just zoomed in with the camera.
- What is your cat's best quality? Their face, their fluff, their silly poses? Try to depict their best quality in the pictures you take of them!
