The Importance of Shelter Pet Photography | Adam Goldberg

Learn how to take photos like Adam: • Tips & Tricks for Shel...
Adam Goldberg with AGoldPhoto Pet Photography taught himself photography and how to work with animals while working at an animal shelter from 2013-2015.
He taught himself using donated Westcott Basics lighting kit and honed his photography skills by practicing for several hours a day, watching tutorials and training shelter volunteers how to get better photos of pets to give them a better chance of getting adopted.
Adam now travels the country full-time hosting Pet Photo Shoot Fundraisers for animal shelters with his wife Mary. He still volunteers his time taking photos of shelter pets to help them find homes.
In Adam’s portfolio, you’ll find photos of dogs, wearing their birthday suits, making goofy faces and trying to catch treats. Adam also takes photos of cats, rabbits, guinea pigs and more.
After the Westcott Basics kit, Adam used the Westcott D5, moved up to the Westcott TD6 and now uses the Westcott Solix Bi-Color to capture his subjects.

Thank you for all the tips with regard to photographing shelter pets. I do this part-time at a local shelter with a Canon 70D which they have as the business camera.
Do you have any suggestions for photos under fluorescent lighting? We don’t have a budget for lighting so I find myself battling the room lighting indoors. I would love to do better by these adoptable pets.
p.s. I had to laugh at all the noises you were making to get their attention. I can relate! 😂 My assistants have heard it all.
