Quinceanera photos with animals?
Our lovely quinceaneras often ask us to provide photos with animals as this is something which has become very fashionable.
Your personal security is paramount
The first point a quinceanera needs to consider when working with animals is personal security. Whatever animal you may have in mind for your photoshoot you need to feel safe and confident with it around. And this doesn’t just mean not being afraid of it, but really feeling good about it. So if you like horses for instance don’t go for tigers or camels only because they may look more glamorous, but go for the animal you really like having around as it will enhance the experience and this will come out in the end of the results of your quinceanera photo shoot.
Animal perception
Remember that animals can be very perceptive of feelings. If you are comfortable with them they respond positively. If you are afraid or uncomfortable or hyped up they are more likely to have unpredictable reactions and they could get nervous. You need to be calm and – if appropriate – you need to let the animal come to you without paying them too much attention or getting over-excited.
Working in harmony
We only work with licensed specialists in the sector who follow all safety regulations and are trained to handle animals but a tiger, even if tamed and trained, remains a wild animal so you have to work calmly with us and trust our team not only for beautiful pictures but also your welfare. All the animals we hire come very well-groomed of course but working with them may also take longer, as we need to capture those unique moments of perfect harmony between you and the chosen animal.
For your quinceanera photoshoot, we can provide horses, camels, tigers, lions, snakes, wolves, eagles, parrots, alligators, owls, and virtually anything which is available through fully registered handlers.
Pick the right quinceanera dress
Finally, specific dresses are very important in this type of photo session. You need to select clothes of appropriate colors so you are prominent, photos with animals just becoming a prop and not the other way around! The focus of attention needs to be you – as it is your day and we are not shooting a wildlife documentary.
If you are interested in having an animal in your photo session you need to speak to us and will help you out with the selection of the right animal and the appropriate quinceanera dress, to ensure spectacular end results.
