Description

Ever look at your pet in real life, then look at your photo and think… who is that gremlin?
Most pet photos don’t turn out “bad” because your pet won’t cooperate, they turn out bad because of one fixable mistake people make without realizing it.
In this episode, pro dog photographer and rescue advocate Mindy Dutka shares simple tweaks that instantly level up your photos, whether you’re snapping memories at home or trying to help a shelter pet get noticed fast.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL LEARN:
 • The #1 mistake that makes pet photos look flat, chaotic, or unflattering
 • The easiest way to get expressive, adoption-worthy shots, even with just your phone
 • How better photography helps pets get seen, shared, and adopted

You’ll also hear how Mindy is helping save lives through Global United Foundation and her photography business, Dogs I Meet.
