Very cute pup. Well done for getting equipment that can take you further with your portraits of your fine dog,

Can I suggest a couple of things. First give the dog a good brush before the shoot. Second, get yourself a good pp program so you can spot heal areas where dust/dirt/dandruff etc can spoil a portrait. Finally, learn some cloning/painting techniques for the eyes, so that unwanted reflections can be removed and catchlights painted in.

With a beautiful dog like Daan you are almost there but the little details make all the difference.

Good luck.

Hi Peter,

Thank you for taking your time, look well and suggesting me a couple of improvements.

Here's the result. New advise is very welcome!
