Today is my first photo shoot involving animals. Depending on how it goes, I would like to maybe throw a counter offer and trade services. I have three dogs that I really want somebody to take pictures of me with and I would love to do that for you.

I am a dog photographer form Poand. I found your videos some time ago and I must admit I can't stop coming back from time to time to check different aspects of photographing or editing. Honestly? Your way of explaining things or just talking about things is so ...hmm.. normal, people friendly (including your english whis is soo easy to understand) that before I explain something to my clients or fans I often think - well, let's check if Jess covered the topic and how she did it. I have been recommending your channel to my dog loving friends who like to photograph. Good work and please keep it doing. I had to found some time at last and write to you. Take care

Also May I ask the most easiest way to remove subject and make closer together thanks! X

again and again, I would watch your videos for ours. I do portraits and your tips are very useful anyway...I try and try and try doing photos to my mum cat but...she is very reluctant, so I did just some details shot, but never say never
I will have to go to do some shots for a dog of a friend during a competition...don't know when and don't know what I will manage to do( considering not a super faster lens) but will apply all your tips...and will tag you for sure🙂

Hi, great tips. Recently found your channel and subscribed. How did you edit that gap between the two pups? Or did you show it somewhere and I missed it? Thanks so much

Jessica, I just found you a few days ago and have been binge watching ever since. You are brilliant on too many levels to mention. I volunteer my services to a dog rescue to help get them adopted. Your sense of composition, lighting and engagement with your subject are above and beyond. Thank you and Merry Christmas to your family as well as your beautiful dogs. I cannot own that breed because I will never own a dog that is smarter than me.

As always, thank you so much for offering so much information to us, Jess. I haven't gotten the chance to do any pet photography in a while but I am so excited to watch your videos always!!! I wish my cat would stay still for photos.

Send your private jet, I would love to escape our winter next year and come and photograph you and your horses and dogs. And if your jet doesn't have that range, Renate would be an excellent choice :-)

Should I plan a trip to England next year to take photos of you and your fur babies? 😊
