![]() This is me as a puppy. I have more pictures in my Photo Gallery. |
I used to add a lot of Yorkie Pictures that folks would snail-mail and e-mail in. But since I died (February 3, 2007) I'm out of the Yorkie picture adding business. Not to fret. We have 35 pages of Yorkie pictures. |

I figured that there were other dogs named Shooter, but now I know another YORKIE named Shooter. Here's little Shooter with his cat buddy Buttercup. How did this Shooter get his name? He came from the breeder with it! Isn't he cute? They live in Groveport, Ohio. |

Shooter's Photo Tips:
1) Avoid cheap cameras. It's impossible to take a good picture of a Yorkie with a disposable camera. If you still use a 35mm camera, use fast ISO 400 film. Focus on the dog's eyes. Many people don't center the subject and the camera focuses on the background, resulting in a blurry pet. If you have a manually focused camera, then spend some time to focus. Most bad pictures aren't properly focused.
2) Take close ups. Yorkies are small -- Get up close or use a telephoto or zoom lens.
3) Take a picture outside or in a well-lit room. Full sunlight often makes for a picture of a squinting Yorkie. Try taking a picture in the shade. When inside, natural light and indoor halogen lamps offer the best lighting.
4) If you have a flash, use it. Even outside, fill-in flash creates a softer photograph. Use the flash when shooting inside and turn on the red-eye-reduction feature. Even when using a flash, use plenty of light. This will prevent the pet's eyes from dilating. Otherwise, your beautiful dog will have giant green eyes and appear possessed. Also, the camera's bright flash in a dark room can damage a puppy's eyes.
5) Consider the background. Find a simple, contrasting background. Not a brown and black background for your brown and black Yorkie. Avoid cluttered, confusing backgrounds. That pattern on your sofa won't look so good next to your Yorkie.
6) Get your Yorkie's ears to stand up. Make a weird sound or say its name.
7) Take 10 pictures to get one that you like.
