Ingrid Johnson, a cat behaviorist and founder of Fundamentally Feline, offers valuable tips for capturing great cat photos. According to her, shooting in the cats’ familiar surroundings yields the best results. Avoid the pitfalls of taking them out for a photoshoot—utilize natural light, play with them to bring out confidence, and use toys to guide their gaze. Ingrid emphasizes working with their natural tendencies instead of trying to force a perfect shot.
According to another photographer from Toronto, Canada, Karen Weiler, good lighting is key to great photography. She suggests setting up a cozy spot for your cat in an area with excellent light. If your cat likes catnip, sprinkle some there to make it even more appealing. It’s simple: if your cat enjoys the spot, you’ll have more chances to capture adorable moments.
Karen emphasizes that this setup will make your cat relaxed and happy, creating a perfect environment with fantastic lighting— a surefire way to get great photos! Her advice is valuable for anyone looking to capture wonderful moments with their cats.
Karen also shares a tip about cat behavior—cats respond more to movement than sound. So, when trying to capture their attention, use toys and movement to get them interested. It’s a fun and effective way to make your cat the star of your photos!
