Breaking Established Patterns with Patterns

Friday, April 27, 2018 | By: Tracy Allard

"Creativity involves breaking out of established patterns in order to look at things in a different way" said Edward de Bono, who is a physician, psychologist, philosopher, author and inventor. I can definitely learn from this man's writings. When in the studio I often photograph dogs, and cats for that matter too, on plain paper backgrounds, letting the animal take the spotlight, but a few months ago I started experimenting with patterns in the studio and was really pleased with the results; take a look at a few examples below.

Huey's not a Dalmatian, but he looks good with spots!

I'm sold! I still love a classic, plain background, but patterns can be fun and I'm going to continue to look for ways to incorporate them into my studio sessions. If you'd like to see more pet photographers' take on patterns, and this should be good, you can start with the work of Shae Pepper Photography and continue clicking on the link at the bottom of each post to enjoy an around-the-world tour of participating photographers in the Pet Photography 52 Weeks Challenge week 17 theme of "patterns".
