Pet Portrait Plan

1. I will shoot pics of my little brother/Chihuahua "Xerxis".
2. My backyard is where the photoshoot will take place, the grass is very clean and the lighting is great.
3. Natural lighting, the sun shines right down on my backyard. Gonna be perfect and better than using the flash.
4. I Will need the camera i borrow from the lab, preferably a tripod, and great lighting.
5. Getting my pet to stay still, he is very hyper and gets really excited when he goes outside.
6. I will give him a treat to eat or have my mom hold him because he listens to her all the time.
7. Similar to this picture, blur out the background
