Photographing Pigs as Pets With Tamara Lackey

In this episode of reDefine Show - Animal Edition!, Tamara Lackey is photographing pigs as pets inside the home of a veterinarian who specializes in pot-bellied pigs. Tamara learns about how pigs are adopted as cute pets, but later, as they outgrow their space inside a home, the pigs are dropped off at shelters or simply let go. For some ridiculous reason I simply cannot fathom, my husband doesn't want us to have a couple of pet pigs live in our home with us. But, at least I had an awesome time photographing THESE two rescue pets in THEIR home: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcgIUsMp-aw While feeding them oatmeal cookies and petting them, I share photography tips on finding great angles while, most importantly, getting those *perfect booty shots*. Check it out live on Adorama TV now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcgIUsMp-aw All images shot with Nikon D5 & 24-70 f/2.8.
