Tips for taking great photos: 
  1. Shoot horizontally! To be considered for a month spread, hold your phone sideways and set your camera to the highest resolution possible. 
  2. Set the scene and follow the theme! Make sure to incorporate books or reading into your picture. 
  3. Clear Photos Only - Most cell phones can take “bursts” or “live” photos which captures several photos quickly. Select the clearest photo if your pet is in motion. 
  4. Lighting - Indoor daytime light is best near a window. Outdoor light is best in the shade. Turn off your flash to avoid a “red-eye” effect. 
  5. Don’t be shy! The best thing about digital photos is you can take several shots. That way you can select the very best representation of your pet. 
  6. Control the focus. Tap the screen where you want the focus to be. You can adjust the exposure (how bright or dark it is) using the level icon.
  7. No people or wildlife. We want to see your pets! Please don’t include people or wildlife in the photos.
