Artist Statement: Puppy Love I used I took this portrait of my family’s dogs, Watson and Stella. Watson is scared to death of strangers, but loves other dogs. Stella, on the other hand, loves people, but does not get along well with other dogs. The photo is taken on my back porch, where Watson and Stella sunbathe in the summertime. The deck is painted white, complementing the sky blue siding of the house. A challenge for this portrait specifically was getting both of the subjects to stand relatively still, as they get excited and bored very easily. I had to add light the photo in iPhoto as it was getting dark out when I took the photo. I also used a strong depth of field effect to add some selective focus and bring the viewer’s eye to the subjects.
