As a professional reptile photographer, this video was really entertaining. It's so much more difficult than cat or dog photos because they can't listen and won't always sit still. But on the plus size, every pose is a natural pose
I find that my blue tongue skink is a great model. The only trouble is timing the shot with his tongue flicking. Otherwise he has a perfect male model face of looking kinda mad while knowing nothing at all. And the perfect male body type: fusiform
@the_newt_nest Some of my snakes are magnificent. They don't mind the camera, they look right at me, they don't curl up too much but they still fit comfortably into the frame. But others have attempted to break cameras and run away at the first chance they find. It's always a toss up
Definitely....lol 😂 I have a hognose who was opening her mouth if I booped her 3 times....tried to make a video and she wouldn't do it. So I tried to just show her to the camera and then she tried to bite me 😅
It'd be awesome if you posted the pics to your Insta after each month has passed, so we can see Jan's pic in Feb, Feb's in March and so on - people that are able to get the calendars get "early access", but those who can't (money's too tight, no international shipping options, & etc.) don't miss out on the cuteness entirely!
ed it still makes me so happy to see how much your confidence has grown over the years. we can hear it in your voice and i really enjoy what you add to these videos.
Watching Ed flip the table after the leaves landed back on it reminded me of Jim Carrey's The Grinch, when he runs back to knock everything off the table after cleanly pulling away the cloth 🤣.
Gotta add that I enjoyed this video because my wife is a professional photographer with a specialization in pet portraiture. I often help out with photoshoots by being a pet wrangler, directing attention right at the camera lens, setting up and teardown, and being a pack mule. Our shoots end up being quite cozy in appearance because we tend to go for "gold". Shooting in Golden Hour, lol
Okay I have to mention this… my coworker has the same bird calendar. That is so cool that you are making a calendar using your animals. I might have to try and get one even though I don’t use calendars.
Also the shipping rates and possible import taxes if you live outside the US. I wish they would offer a digital version that you can print out yourself so you don't end up paying those.
0:00 oh my gosh that dwight cutout scared me because I have the same one staring at me right now in my living room and I thought I was seeing things for a sec, how funny we have the same cutout 😂
Not a professional but have been taking pictures since I was 4 a long time ago the main tip for taking pictures of any animal is burst mode, so much better since digital cameras came about can just pick the best ones from a 10 or 20 burst. The fall picture was a perfect catch
Supermodels can be moody and divaesque so your animals fit the bill nicely. Emily going from ”that’s so cool” to ”you spilled water everywhere” in split second.
Am I the only one that forgets a lot of the time that they're technically a small business and they have to do a lot of this by themselves and they do all of this hard work for us cuz they love us
Can i suggest a video topic? Id love to see a video of a day in the life of Ed and Emily! We know you work super long hours but id love to see what you guys do all day in and out of the store! 😊
@ OMG! No way! This is a dream come true right now! I have been watching since before 10k and wish I could come visit! Unfortunately im on the east coast so I have to save up a bit but am probably your biggest fan and just wanted to say thank you for all you do!
0:18 I am surprised by how natural that opening skit was! I watched one of your older videos recently and the difference is massive! It’s not necessary for you guys to actually develop that skill so well so I’m genuinely impressed, I hope this doesn’t sound insulting :x
I'm glad you didn't show them all! You guys worked hard on those, so it's only fitting that if people want to see all the photos they have to actually order them.
It WAS definitely fun to watch yall wrangle the reptiles! What a gift that the easiest one was the Halloween one Emily had been the most hyped for, with the lil leg pointing on the paper!! Made me smile real big. Also, they're so good as suggestions or starting points for other people to make themed photos, to see behind the scenes of what could happen - musking, wind, jumping, all of that. And to also see it go perfectly well with the Salamander and Tarantula! Good job keeping him from trying to nom her XD
So happy I got it as a Christmas gift today and my family didn’t even know I watched you guys! They just know I love reptiles! The calendar is made so perfectly good job to you both!❤
Got my calendar the other day! The pics for each month are so adorable 🥰 and October turned out fantastic!! Thank you for bringing joy to my life. Thank you also for a signed copy and the SD logo sticker!!!!!
EM: OH that looks amazing!! Ed: yes! Em: *realizing* you spilled water everywhere! Ed: *in true husband fashion* don't worry about that look at that again! Lmao 😂😂😂😂
Just ordered my calendar!! Hoping it’s signed but I can’t wait either way!! Hope you both had a great Halloween + Thanks so much for everything you do! ✨🐍
You should bring Allie for a walk again to the beach or even bring her to the pet shop to pick out a toy or a treat we will love to see her do this ps i love your videos❤
Off course the hognoses were doing the breeding twitch, you set the mood with the valentine decoration.
EXACTLY what I was going to say
@@lauraelaineallen21 I came to the comments to say this too LMAO
Haha! yeah

"The October photo will be the hardest."
*Proceeds to struggle with all the other photos except October.*
That's just how it goes sometimes.
Lol
The hognoses not cooperating is the most hognose thing they could do😂
Definitely....lol 😂 I have a hognose who was opening her mouth if I booped her 3 times....tried to make a video and she wouldn't do it. So I tried to just show her to the camera and then she tried to bite me 😅
I loved that they started doing the twitch! Like, oh hai! Is is spring already?
@@angelcollina "They set the mood so I guess this is what we're doing!"

That's a cool idea! If you tag our account at the beginning of each month (to remind me), I'd be happy to do that!
@@SnakeDiscovery Awesome, shall encalendarise it (or ADHD will win. Again!)
Such a winning idea!!!
I love this as a fan from New Zealand. I just checked and it would be $20+ USD for shipping so nearly twice the calendar price.
@@elliganange I know, im Australia and its just too expensive especially once you convert that to our currencies. But the insta idea is cool beans
ed it still makes me so happy to see how much your confidence has grown over the years. we can hear it in your voice and i really enjoy what you add to these videos.

13:08 so insanely impressive, the salamander and tarantula were way too well behaved 😂
My wife and I just did a fall photoshoot of our pets. Everywhere I've shared them, people gush over them, even our tomato frog and ball python.
Love when the general public gives our scaly and smooth skinned friends some love 😁

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Ed tossing the table is a whole mood!!! 😂😂😂
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Someone should gif it, it's very meme worthy!

Snow and Lavender were such perfect morphs for Valentine’s Day! and I love this pet photo shoots are so fun 😂
The Valentine's Day shoot doing the breeding twitch was hilarious. You set a romantic scene and they obliged.
12:33 he be enjoying that like some kind of salamander spa 😂. Really enjoyed this video! Love it!!!
I thought the same thing! I said "No wonder he's not moving, he's in a sauna!"
15:33 noo 😂😂 some of us are poor emily😭

0:11 I LOVE the photo of Rex can’t wait for the calendar 🎉
YEAH!!!!
I dunno, the hognose twitch seems rather appropriate for the valentine theme 🤔
"Don't do the breeding twitch! That's not what we're doing right now!"
I'm dying laughing
0:00 oh my gosh that dwight cutout scared me because I have the same one staring at me right now in my living room and I thought I was seeing things for a sec, how funny we have the same cutout 😂
I was waiting for someone to mention it! It caught me so off guard! 🤣
3:59 the Valentine’s Day decorations confused them. 😭
Not a professional but have been taking pictures since I was 4 a long time ago the main tip for taking pictures of any animal is burst mode, so much better since digital cameras came about can just pick the best ones from a 10 or 20 burst. The fall picture was a perfect catch
I actually would like some of these calendar pictures as puzzles.
Thanks
*sets up a Valentine’s Day backdrop*
*hognose does the breeding twitch*
“No stop!”
My favorite snake discovery moment so far 😭
Dwight judging y'all in the background is awesome.
Supermodels can be moody and divaesque so your animals fit the bill nicely.
Emily going from ”that’s so cool” to ”you spilled water everywhere” in split second.
They look so pretty!❤
Gods these pics are gonna be adorable
15:25 Dang it! Thwarted! 🔍
Hey this is juniper and I was the one who gave you the little pumpkin and I met you at clients reptiles reptile rampage
That's right!! Your pumpkin is famous now! Thanks again for your thoughtfulness 🥰
Am I the only one that forgets a lot of the time that they're technically a small business and they have to do a lot of this by themselves and they do all of this hard work for us cuz they love us
Can i suggest a video topic? Id love to see a video of a day in the life of Ed and Emily! We know you work super long hours but id love to see what you guys do all day in and out of the store! 😊
Cant wait to see the new addition hopefully!!!
Next Friday!! One week away!
@ OMG! No way! This is a dream come true right now! I have been watching since before 10k and wish I could come visit! Unfortunately im on the east coast so I have to save up a bit but am probably your biggest fan and just wanted to say thank you for all you do!
@@SnakeDiscovery I have a feeling it's either a rescue macaw or a baby green wing 👀
My calendar just came in and it’s signed! ! Super exciting! Feel like a fan girl lol thank you so much!
I find it funny that grumpy Hypno looks so innocent and bright-eyed. XD!
0:18 I am surprised by how natural that opening skit was! I watched one of your older videos recently and the difference is massive! It’s not necessary for you guys to actually develop that skill so well so I’m genuinely impressed, I hope this doesn’t sound insulting :x
Omg LOVE it guys I’ve watched this sooooooo many times 😂 and even bought the calender🎉❤
Very pretty ! I would smell the calendar immediately, I love the smell of paper, books etc.
3:35 the hognoses not behaving was the most hognose thing they could do 😂
Gosh, I can already tell this is going to be a great video!!! Who else loves snake Discovery??? 😋💕
Grace and Mister Salamander are so stinking cute. Glad to see Hypno is still as chonky as ever. ❤
I’m so exited for my calendar! They look adorable 😄🐍
Wow, guess I'm never going to see October
I love all of your videos it’s so cool how people can see your videos because they can see all the coolest animals ❤❤❤❤❤🐊🐊🐊🐊🐍🐍🐍
ROOM SERVICEEEE ITS BEEN A HOT MINUTE. HE LOOKS SO HEALTHY NOW ❤❤❤❤im so glad he’s still with you guys! : )
6:35 LEECHYS❤️❤️❤️
The salamander and tarantula one was freaking hilariously perfect, also the Easter toad was genius!!!❤
Why you don’t show the Halloween picture?
Cries in Australian shipping being more expensive than the calendar itself! 😭
Dying to see how October’s pic turned out!!
You guys are having WAY too much fun with this!
Omg is that the extremely accurate birds calendar?? I’ve been wanting that one 😂😂
Been decided between that one and your guy’s for next year
Dwight in more than one location. ❤😂
Got my calendar today!!! Super awesome. My daughters are going to be so excited when they see it! We love watching your channel together ❤️
My absolute favorite was "There is a snake in my boot."
Nice calendar for sure.
Aww omnom was so great for that
Name the female gecko Muriel. My daddy is Larry and my momma is Muriel! ❤❤❤ Married 50 years before she passed in 2015.
That salamander is getting some premium ✨skincare✨
I'll definitely ask for a calendar for Christmas!
Go emily!!!! Holding a tarantula! I love seeing progress in people getting over fears!!!!
Just ordered my calendar! So excited!
Me too! Also got one for the Lil girl across the street who's also a SD fan lol she's going to flip out!
I'm glad you didn't show them all! You guys worked hard on those, so it's only fitting that if people want to see all the photos they have to actually order them.
I like the new ending screen ❤
7:33 the statue kind of scared me a bit😂

So happy I got it as a Christmas gift today and my family didn’t even know I watched you guys! They just know I love reptiles! The calendar is made so perfectly good job to you both!❤
The cardboard cut out in the start 😂😂❤❤
0:44 I recognize that calendar instantly I love his work it’s hilarious and so accurate 😂
I’m so sorry I wish I could afford a Callander but I can’t afford the shipping (I’m from the UK) but they look absolutely amazing
Got my calendar the other day! The pics for each month are so adorable 🥰 and October turned out fantastic!! Thank you for bringing joy to my life. Thank you also for a signed copy and the SD logo sticker!!!!!
Aww there should’ve been some cookies for the December pictures. Leaving Santa some milk (snakes) and cookies.
Thank you for doing halloween justice 🖤🧡 halloween needs all the love it can get!
This is so cute ☺️
The calendar looks like it’s gonna be a lot of fun. You two are very brave to put your tarantula together with a lizard.
7:33 Not gonna lie, Dwight kinda scared the crap out of me for a second there!😅
EM: OH that looks amazing!!
Ed: yes!
Em: *realizing* you spilled water everywhere!
Ed: *in true husband fashion* don't worry about that look at that again!
Lmao 😂😂😂😂
3:58 In fairness, the breeding twitch IS on theme for Valentine's day...
Just ordered my calendar!! Hoping it’s signed but I can’t wait either way!!
Hope you both had a great Halloween + Thanks so much for everything you do! ✨🐍
I like the new outro change at the end of the video!
Oh my gosh. Your vday photoshoot had me rolling. 😂❤
“ Don’t do the breeding twitch! that’s not what we’re doing right now!!” 😂😂
I love your videos
I really enjoyed the video, it was fun watching the lil set building and the animals interacting with them. Is always fun to watch you guys work!
My very first Snake Discovery calendar has been ordered!
The video was so chaotic, yet professional at the same time. Love it!
oh the new outro is so cool!!
7:18
Ed failed at first but this… 7:28 made my day 😂
Woooot 🎉 photo shoot day lol
I love the February one the hogs look so cute🥰. I love your channel ❤
3:58 WAIT FOR NEXT YEAR, SNAKES
I’ve had my wife buy the calendar the last two years and I can’t wait for this one ❤
Ooo I like the new ending graphic, so cool
All hail the Hypnotoad! All hail! 4:40
The irony of thinking Halloween would be the hardest shoot, while the Xmas one would be "easy enough" 😆
Yay!! a new video🎉🎉🎉
You should bring Allie for a walk again to the beach or even bring her to the pet shop to pick out a toy or a treat we will love to see her do this ps i love your videos❤
