- Andy lays bare his bag, to give you an exclusive look at the kit he uses on a day to day basis to capture his amazing dog photography.
We visit Andy at his home as he opens up his camera bag, to give us a rundown of the gear he uses to capture his amazing images. Before getting to the kit, Andy explains the importance of protecting yourself as well as your equipment, as he spends most of his time lying on the ground to capture the dogs at their level. Nothing ruins your shoot like being cold and wet, and it can really affect your photography.
Even though Andy now uses top of the range cameras, he explains how he started with lower end cameras and doing so really helped him hone his skills rather than relying on the camera. He then explains the lenses he cannot live without, and the steps he takes to protect these essential pieces of kit. Protecting the images is the most important thing when on a shoot, and Andy shares the steps he takes to protect his memory cards before wrapping up with his choice of speedlites.
Equipment: 2x Canon 1DX, Canon 70-200mm mkii, Canon 24-70mm mkii, Canon 16-35mm, Hoya UV Filter, 2x Canon 580EX II, Pelican Memory Card Case, Lowepro Flipside 500aw, Lowepro Top Loader Pro,

Omg the squeaker tip on the mouth. Priceless. Thank you!
Even though this is a 3yrs old video, I still find this very helpful. I have recently picked up dog shooting as a side hustle and your guide is really helpful for me to get started. Thank you.
Andy is such a fantastic guy, I love how he says how lucky he is to have the cameras he does. There is so much showing off with kit at times in the photography world so its nice to see such a humble guy, so talented as well! I really love his ethos about how expensive kit doesn't make you a good photographer, your skill and passion does :)
you have helped me heaps as i am working towards opening my own photography business working with dogs so thank you so much
I'm looking at buying the 70-200 at the moment.. bit envious really. I feel it will help massively.
Hey Andy! I have a pet photography passion, I photographic my dog's life and post their photos on Instagram. I have a Sony a6500. So I've had some practice with cameras. This was great information, thank you for sharing!
whats your insta?
id like to follow i have an a6500 too! i love my dogs and want to capture them in the best way possible
What an ace vlog, great presentation and delivery. I am looking for to watching more of your work.
Thanks for the deep dive into your camera bag! Looking forward to having 2 camera bodies on my photoshoots.
Big inspiration Andy, thanks for these tips! I'm an aspiring pet photographer and follow you on Instagram for inspiration, your shot of a Manchester Terrier was my fave! 💓
Many thanks for all the tips! I will try them out 🐶💕
So does Andy have his own RUclips channel? I can't seem to find one. Great advice and beautiful photos. Would love to learn more from Andy.
Sorry no he doesn't. He will have more content on our training site www.thephotographeracademy.com you can have a free year of our basic membership with code ACADEMYFREE
Hi just bought a CANON EOS 90D DSLR Camera with EF-S 18-135 mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Lens and trying to work out the best settings to take a portrait picture of my dog. Any tips? I'm literally a beginner and chose this as an future proof kit for a hobby because of the dogs I have. Just working my way round
The squeezer is brilliant !!! thank you so much
So useful. Thank you!
yay one more vid of you browsing the internet ! awesome !
Hello mate , have you every used a fixed focal length macro , say 100mm for action shots ?
Morning! Great tips thanks, hopefully I'll get nice shots of our lovely working cocker very soon. Quick question: I use a Canon 80D with a Tamron 150-600mm G2, what's your views on filters for such long lenses? A lot of people say it ruins an already imperfect picture at max range. Cheers!
We don't and have not encountered any of our trainers using filters on that length of lens
@@ThePhotographerAcademy Thanks!
Amazing :)
Where do you keep the camera bag when taking pictures with one of the bodies? Is it within arms reach ? In the car? On your back?
Thank you for an excellent basics compilation. That very last point to not keep upgrading unless it's with profits from selling photographs is such an important one right now in my opinion. Current culture seems all about 'insta-grat(ification)', suggesting that unless yo have the best of the best you are a bad photographer :)
Thanks again. I think the only thing more difficult than dogs would be children and cats :D
A great video buddy
Hi Andy good video would you recommend A1Servo for a fast dog
Thanks Matt
I use this technique
I put stuff that my dog bites at the back of camera and focusing it in a second
Thanks for squeaking the toy 😂 dogs gone mad now 😂
Does Andy have instagram?
me:*inspired*
Hi, I love your images, what a great video. It will be superb if you took a peak at my channel to see if you like any of my videos. Keep up the amazing work! I look forward to your next video.
not having Andy Biggar's social media info in the description is shameful and is why I will not be viewing this channels content again
