Meet your instructor Belinda. Pet Photographer.
Belinda Richards is a photographic artist specializing in domesticated animals and digital manipulation. You will find Belinda's work injected with humor as she uses the human elements of our pets and manipulates them into challenging characters.

You will find her in her Melbourne studio most days chasing furry friends around and making ridiculous noises to get their attention.
I created this course to help aspiring pet photographers learn tips and techniques to capture candid studio portraits.
Working with dogs can be a bit of a juggling act between controlling your lighting, camera settings, AND a subject that doesn’t understand most of what you are saying! This course will help students with all of these obstacles as we cover everything from safety in the studio to the final edit of the portrait. By the end of my course, participants should feel confident that they now have the basics down to capture their own studio portraits.
