In this project I would like to take picture of dogs who are waiting for a new home and work together with the dogs home staff, so with each other's help and collaboration we can help the dogs to be adopted quicker (hopefully) by taking a better adoption picture of them.
I believe that this project has the potential to meet the animal shelter needs and the aims, as working together as a team we can help to increase the number of adoptions and support and make their work more efficient. At the end of the project the images will be uploaded to their websites and everybody who's been involved will be feeling more satisfied and happy. A very positive part of this project will be that the work that I will start off can be continued after the project as well even including myself as volunteering further on.
I'm going to chose a partner or more that I will team up with. Having a partner will help make my job as a photographer much much easier. My partner is very important as he will be responsible for handling the dog being on the leash, kind of keeping the dog calm and making sure the dog is not jumping around or running off across the park, so it's a safety requirement. We want to keep the dog safe and allow me to focus on taking the pictures.
I'm planning to use my Canon EOS 1100D DSLR camera with 18-55mm lens. It's a fast lens and creates a very amazing fairy tail effect of the dogs. As the dogs' face, their eyes will be in focus and everything in the background will be blurred out, which is very appealing and it looks like a very positive situation. I always want to make sure that we make the pictures as positive as we possibly can as some people think that adopting from an animal shelter can be a potentially negative thing, but it's not and that's why I will try to make these dreamy pictures. Obviously it will be important to see how the dog looks like; small,big or have unique features? and show it in an additional image.
