Ayana Chavis - Weekly Artist Post





Sharon Montrose mostly uses a shallow depth of field and increased shutter speed to capture the animals she photographs. The increased or faster shutter speed it necessary due to the animal or dog moving frequently. Her medium seems to be from a digital camera.

Thematically, she utilizes color and light within all the photos she makes. Her use of light particularly highlight the colors of the coats of the dogs she photographs as well as the color of their eyes and texture of their noses and coat. She captures the personality, laziness and playfulness of her subjects, making them varied but it feels as if you know the dogs she photographs.

Aside from the colors, awesome angles and lighting, these photos made me extremely happy. I feel as though I know these dogs personally, like they're my pets. They all look so cute and snuggly, definitely evoking emotion.
