BRINGING THE SUPPLY CHAIN HOME. CREATING MICHIGAN TOPS FUTURE HAPPENING RIGHT HERE. THE
CAMERAS THAT MAKE YOU UP
BACKYARD INSIDER ME SORA, OUR
SWEET LITTLE JUMPING SPOKE
SPIDER HEADS WHO WENT VIRAL WITH
ALL THE RIGHT MOVES PLUS
MINIATURE HORSES WITH MINIATURE
HOOPS HOW PHOTOGRAPHERS MANAGED
TO GET THAT GREAT SHOTS IF YOU
LOVE ALL OF HER PETS, THANK YOU
ARE IN THE RIGHT SPOT. HELLO AND
WELCOME TO ALL FOR PETS. I’M
JASON CAR AND I’M PRIYA MANN.
THANKS FOR JOINING US ON EVERY
SHOW. WE INTRODUCED YOU TO A
BRAND NEW SPOKES PAT, A LOCAL
PAD WHOSE OWNERS THINK THEY
DESERVE THE TITLE WINNERS ARE
USUALLY FURRY, BUT SOMETIMES
FEATHERY OR SCALY, AND THEY
ALMOST ALWAYS HAVE FOUR LEGS
EXCEPT FOR OUR SPOKES BIRDS, OF
COURSE, BUT THAT IS ABOUT TO
CHANGE. FOUR LEGS ARE JUST NOT
ENOUGH ANYMORE. YOU GUESSED IT.
WE HAVE OUR FIRST SPOKE SPIDER.
AND SHE IS THE CUTEST. SORA IS A
JUMPING SPIDER, WHICH ARE
POPULAR ON SOCIAL MEDIA BECAUSE
THEY’RE BIG EYES AND FUZZY LEGS
MAKE THEM SOME OF THE MOST
ADORABLE ARACHNIDS AROUND SORA
IS A SENIOR SPIDER, WHICH MEANS
HER JUMPING DAYS HAVE PASSED AND
HER VIBRANT COLORS A LITTLE
FADED. SHE’S NOT WEBBING AS MUCH
AS SHE USED TO. SHE’S NOT ABLE
TO GRIP HER ENCLOSURE AND
CERTAIN CERTAIN SURFACES AS AS
GOOD AS WHAT SHE USED TO WHEN
SHE WAS YOUNGER WAS ONCE SO SPRY
SHE ESCAPED HER ENCLOSURE COULD
NOT FIND HER FOR TWO WEEKS AND
LUCKILY ENOUGH, SHE STAYED IN
OUR HOUSE, AND I ACTUALLY CAUGHT
HER IN OUR IN MY FAMILY’S
BEDROOM AND LITERALLY WAS LIKE
OH, MY GOD. THERE YOU ARE. YOU
MIGHT THINK LAURA’S OWNER ALPHA
HAS ALWAYS BEEN A FAN OF
SPIDERS, BUT NOT SO MUCH DID NOT
WANT THEM NEAR ME OR ANYTHING TO
DO WITH THEM. AND THEN ONCE I
STARTED DEALING WITH THE JUMPING
SPIDER, I GOT MORE COMFORTABLE
AROUND THEM AFTER ALPHA SAW
JUMPING SPIDERS ON YOUTUBE, SHE
THOUGHT WELCOMING ONE AS A PET
WOULD HELP HER OVERCOME HER FEAR
, AND IT WORKED. NOW MORE
SPIDERS HAVE JOINED SORA IN THE
FAMILY, INCLUDING RAKU, ACTUALLY
VERY THREE SUPER ACTIVE AND VERY
BOLD HE WILL TAKE ANY CHANCE HE
CAN TO, LIKE, GO ANYWHERE. JUMP
ON ANYTHING ABOUT 6000 DIFFERENT
SPECIES OF JUMPING SPIDERS AS
PETS. THEY EAT CRICKETS,
MEALWORMS AND OTHER INSECTS AND
THEY CAN LIVE UP TO THREE YEARS.
THEY HAVE EIGHT EYES FOREIGN
FRONT FOR IN THE BACK, WHICH
MAKES FOR EXCELLENT VISION.
THEY’RE VERY SMART. SCIENTISTS
SAY THEY HAVE GREAT MEMORIES AND
CAN CALCULATE DISTANCE, WHICH IS
HELPFUL FOR POUNCING ON PREY.
THEY CAN JUMP 10 TIMES THERE.
BODY LENGTH. IT’S ALL VERY
IMPRESSIVE AND SHOULD BE OBVIOUS
NOW. WHY SORA IS THE VERY FIRST
LOCAL FORCE SPOKE SPIDER
REPRESENTING HER SPECIES IN
STYLE. SORA IS SUCH A CUTIE. AND
NO. I NEVER EXPECTED TO SAY THAT
ABOUT A SPIDER. BUT ALL PETS ARE
CUTE, RIGHT PRAYER. ABSOLUTELY I
KNOW WE’RE BOTH GUILTY OF TAKING
A TON OF PICTURES OF THEM. I
HAVE A ZILLION OF THEM ON MY
PHONE RIGHT NOW, BUT I’M NOT
SURE HOW MANY OF THOSE ARE FRAME
WORTHY. SO WE WENT ALONG WITH
THE PROFESSIONAL PET
PHOTOGRAPHER TO ONE OF HER
SESSIONS AND BOY, DID WE PICK UP
SOME TIPS FOR TAKING THOSE
AMAZING PICS? STARTED HER
BUSINESS 11 YEARS AGO. THERE
WEREN’T A LOT OF PHOTOGRAPHERS
SPECIALIZING IN PETS. MANY OF
THEM HAD AN AESTHETIC. THAT
WASN’T REALLY HER STYLE.
PHOTOGRAPHERS THAT WERE
PHOTOGRAPHING PADS HAD, LIKE
REALLY CHEESY STYLES, JUST LIKE
STUDIO BACKDROP. LIKE DRESSED
PERSON LIKE PEARLS AND HATS.
AND, LIKE THE ANALYSTS LIKE
MISERABLE, MY APPROACH IS ALWAYS
LEARN MORE ABOUT CAPTURING THE
MOMENT. THE ENERGY OF THE
EXPRESSION JOHN AND HANNAH’S DOG
TOFU HAS PLENTY OF EXPRESSION
AND ENERGY. THERE’S SUCH A HUGE
PART OF OUR LIVES, BUT FOR
RELATIVELY SHORT NUMBER OF YEARS
, A LOT OF OWNERS BOOK SESSION
SO THEY KNOW THEY WILL ALWAYS
HAVE GREAT KEEPSAKE PHOTOGRAPHS
. EVEN THOUGH YOU HAVE THOUSANDS
OF PHOTOS DOG ON YOUR PHONE.
THEY’RE NOT NECESSARILY THE BEST
QUALITY. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE
ALSO LIKE, YOU KNOW, I CAN’T
TAKE A PHOTO OF ME AND MY PART
BECAUSE YOU KNOW, INGLES AND
WHATNOT. IF YOU DO WANT TO
IMPROVE THE PHOTOS YOU TAKE OF
YOUR PETS. CAT FIVE TIPS FIRST
FIGURE OUT WHAT MOTIVATES HIM OR
HER. SOME DOGS ARE HAPPY,
CONFIDENT, LIKE READY TO GO.
VERY CURIOUS. OTHER DOGS MIGHT
BE LIKE A LITTLE BIT MORE
RESERVE, SO IT’S JUST KIND OF
FIGURING OUT HOW TO WIN THEM
OVER 99% OF THE TIME THAT’S
TREATS, BUT IT COULD ALSO BE
TOYS OR PRAISE, FIND BACKGROUNDS
WITH MINIMAL CLUTTER. SO THE
FOCUS STAYS ON YOUR PET. LOOK
FOR INDIRECT LIGHTING, WHICH IS
BETTER THAN THE BRIGHT KEANNA.
TRUSTING LIGHT YOU GET IN THE
MIDDLE OF THE DAY. LET’S GET
DOWN ON THE PETS LEVEL AND TRY
UNUSUAL PERSPECTIVES LIKE
SHOOTING UP AT THEM FROM BELOW
THINGS LIKE DOORWAYS OR CHAIR
LEGS TO FRAME THEM AND ADD
VISUAL INTEREST, OR YOU CAN JUST
LEAVE IT TO THE PROFESSIONALS.
CLIENTS ARE REPEAT CUSTOMERS
BOOKING PUPPY SESSIONS. THEN
AGAIN, MAYBE WHEN PETS ARE FULL
GROWN, AND MAYBE EVEN END OF
LIFE PHOTOS AS WELL. WHICH MEANS
OCCASIONALLY, CAT GETS TO SEE
YOUR PHOTOS FRAMED IN A FAMILY’S
HOME. IT’S SURREAL, TO BE HONEST
, BECAUSE LIKE I FEEL LIKE I
TAKE THESE IMAGES, I WORK ON
THEM. I GET THEM PRINTED AND
THEY DELIVER THE CLIENT VERY
RARELY. DO YOU GET TO SEE THE
FINAL RESULT OF THEIR HANGS? SO
I’M JUST LIKE, OH, MY GOSH,
THAT’S MY WORK. TO LEARN MORE
