Reviews: Clients' Testimonials

pet portrait session

"Skai (@skaichanphotography) is a very respectable and professional photographer. His principle is to never touch any models, and he sticks to it even if it means the poses may take longer to do because sometimes its not easy to readjust my pose just based on verbal feedback. Despite that, he has been very patient, telling me what poses are flattering and what are not. He gives honest feedback throughout the shoot, and turns away whenever I had to readjust my pose, especially when I am potentially in compromising positions. He also takes great effort to adjust the lighting to ensure the most flattering angles are captured. Highly recommended photographer! I also hired him as my wedding photographer 3 years ago and his work didn't disappoint❤️❤️" - Rachel Liew

Skai's Vision for Pet Photography

As a passionate pet photographer, I have a vision for what I want to achieve in this field. I believe that pet photography is not just about taking pretty pictures of animals, but also about capturing the essence of the animal's personality and the special bond between them and their owners.

My goal is to create images that are more than just photos - they should tell a story, evoke emotions, and be a tangible representation of the love between a pet and their human. To do this, I always try to personalise each session and tailor it to the unique personalities of my furry subjects.

I also strive to bring a sense of artistry to my pet photography. I believe that pets are more than just cute and cuddly creatures - they are works of art in their own right, with unique features and characteristics that make them truly special. With my lighting techniques and compositional skills, I aim to create images that highlight the beauty of each pet and turn them into stunning pieces of art.

Ultimately, my vision for pet photography is to help pet owners immortalise the memories of their beloved furry companions and celebrate the joy and love that they bring to our lives. Whether it's through a portrait, a candid shot, or capturing special moments at a pet's birthday party, I hope to provide a meaningful and unforgettable experience for both pets and their owners alike.

How Skai Began Doing Pet Photography

My journey into pet photography started as a simple hobby. I would take pictures of stray animals and my friends' pets as a way to pass the time and capture their unique personalities. It wasn't until I got my own family dog, who quickly became my favourite model, that I realised my passion for capturing the essence of these furry creatures on camera.

As my skills improved, I began to volunteer my pet photography services at dog gathering events, taking photos of the pooches in attendance. I genuinely did my best to try to capture every paw friend instead of focusing only on my own family dog, so that I could help every owner leave a good memory. Fortunately, my work was well received and I began to gain recognition for my ability to capture the dogs' individual personalities.

I showcased my work on my social media profiles and online portfolio, where it caught the attention of many who appreciated my ability to create stunning, artistic images of their furry family members. Eventually, pet owners began to approach me, asking me to photograph their own beloved pets.

Since then, I have made a name in the pet photography scene in Singapore, known for my ability to capture the unique personalities of each pet I photograph.

Why Skai Loves Pet Photography

First and foremost, it's my love for animals that drives me to do what I do. Interacting with all sorts of furry friends and capturing their unique personalities and special moments on camera is truly a joy for me. It's a highly rewarding experience.

Pet photography is also a great creative outlet for me. I love experimenting with different lighting, poses and compositions to showcase each pet in its best light. And, I find that with each photoshoot, I build a special connection with the pets, getting to know their personalities and quirks.

But, the best part is being able to create lasting memories for pet owners. It's truly an honour to be able to capture these special moments and provide them with cherished memories that will last a lifetime. And, with the variety of animals, I get to work with, from dogs and cats to birds and horses, every photoshoot is a new adventure and keeps me on my toes!

So, as you can see, there are many reasons why I love doing pet photoshoots. The animals, the creativity, the connections and the memories - it all adds up to a truly fulfilling and rewarding career for me.

How Doing Pet Photography has Helped Skai Grow

Pet photography has played a significant role in my personal and professional growth. Here's how it has contributed to my development:

  1. Emotional Healing: Engaging with pets during photography sessions has been a therapeutic experience for me. It's not just fun; it's a healing process that allows me to find solace and blessings in the midst of life's complexities. The pure, unconditional love and joy that pets bring can be remarkably rejuvenating.
  2. Simplicity and Relaxation: Pets, with their innocence and straightforwardness, provide a refreshing change from the complexities of human interactions. This simplicity makes working with pets a relaxing and enjoyable experience. It's a welcome break from the more demanding aspects of human photography.
  3. Diversified Skillset: Pet photography requires a unique set of skills. It involves a lot of interaction with these adorable creatures, which has broadened my skill set. I've learned to understand and communicate with pets effectively. This diversity in skill has contributed to my personal growth, enhancing my overall creativity.
  4. Genuine Connections: My genuine and heartfelt interaction with pets is reflected in my work. Clients appreciate the authenticity they see in the photographs, as well as the happiness on my face during these sessions. This has allowed me to build a strong reputation and connections in the photography industry. Clients trust me not only as a skilled photographer but also as someone who deeply cares about capturing the true essence of their pets.

In summary, pet photography has been a source of emotional healing and personal growth. It has offered me the chance to unwind, diversify my skillset and build genuine connections with clients and their pets. This journey has enriched my photography career and brought a sense of fulfilment and joy that continues to drive my passion for pet photography.

Understanding Pet Photography

What is Pet Photography?

Pet photography is a specialised field of photography wherein a professional captures images of domestic animals, primarily dogs and cats, although it can encompass a broader range of pets such as birds, rabbits and more.

The focus is on documenting the unique personalities, characteristics and special moments of pets, either in a studio setting or at various locations.

The primary goal is to create visually engaging and emotionally resonant images that serve as cherished keepsakes for pet owners, celebrating the beloved animals in their lives.

What is Pet Photography also Known as?

Pet photography, also known as animal photography, pet portraiture, petography, fur-tography and paw-traits, encompasses a diverse field of capturing the essence of pets and animals.

Animal photography extends to various creatures, including wildlife and farm animals. Pet portraiture focuses on creating artistic and detailed portraits that reveal the unique features and personalities of pets. Petography adds a playful and creative touch, while fur-tography emphasises pets with fur, like dogs and cats. Paw-traits cleverly connects pets and their owners, highlighting not just physical features but also the endearing qualities of pets.

These terms reflect the multifaceted nature of pet photography, from capturing natural behaviour to celebrating the individuality of each pet.

What is a Pet Photographer?

A pet photographer is someone who loves capturing the unique personality and beauty of our furry friends. They specialise in taking photos of pets, including dogs, cats, birds, horses and more. Whether it's in a studio or on location, pet photographers offer a range of services such as portrait sessions, action shots, and candid photos of pets just being themselves in their natural environment. They strive to create memories that pet owners can cherish forever.

Challenges in Doing Pet Photography

Pet photography can be a challenging industry, as animals can be unpredictable and difficult to control. Some of the main challenges that pet photographers may face are:

  1. Getting the animal to cooperate: Some animals may be shy or easily frightened, making it difficult to get them to pose or hold still for the camera. Photographers may need to use treats, toys or other forms of positive reinforcement to coax the animal into the desired position.
  2. Capturing the animal's personality: Pets have their unique personalities and photographers may need to work hard to capture this on camera. This can be very challenging when working with animals who are shy or easily frightened.
  3. Dealing with natural light: Pet photography often takes place outdoors and photographers may need to work with changing light conditions. This is challenging, as bright sunlight can create harsh shadows, while overcast skies can make for flat, uninteresting photos.
  4. Handling the animal safely: Photographers must be aware of the animal's well-being and manage them safely during the session. This includes understanding the animal's body language and behaviour and being aware of the potential dangers.

Despite these challenges, many pet photographers find the work extremely rewarding, as they can capture beautiful and meaningful images that pet owners will treasure for years to come.
