cat photography behind the scenes

Photographers sometimes have to get into tricky spots to get the perfect shot. RAPS animal care worker Ann thought our readers should see some of the hard work that goes into getting the cat photos that appear in the Neko Files posts.

This shot was set up to capture a mystery tabby under the chair.
Abby felt certain she would make a better subject.

Each of the following photos is accompanied by the behind-the-scenes version, taken by Ann.

As with many cats, getting his attention can take a little work

    This was a cool photo grouping.
    I know how it's done but I didn't know how it looks.
    Good idea.
