Reflections in Photography

Reflections are a way to be creative with your photography. A puddle, a shiny surfaced table…even a pair of sunglasses can provide awesome reflection photo opportunities.

Below are some of the reflection photos I’ve taken over the past few years. I am always looking for reflections and have been curating the #ilovereflections_rrt hash tag on Instagram since 2013.

How to Capture Wonderful Reflections in Photography

Reflection Photography

I am Rhonda Tipton and I am a photographer residing in the Houston area. My work includes a wide range of subjects such as portraiture, events and fine art; however, I feel my purpose on this Earth is to tell the stories of those without a voice through my pet, animal shelter and rescue photography.

Letting the Shelter Animals Shine

I'm a firm believer of getting the shelter dogs out of their confinement and capturing their true spirit. You can't rightfully judge an animal for their behavior in a kennel. You have to get them away from the noise of the other dogs and bond with them. You will be amazed at the difference in their behavior.  I have displayed a few examples below.

TOMMY & TEDDY

REDD

ZEUS

MICKEY & MINNIE

ROXIE

BERNIE

While intake photos are needed and get the sympathetic "Awwww, poor baby" response from the public, I believe photos of the animal outside the kennel environment draws more attention and ultimately results in an adoption in a lot of cases.

Child/Pet Photo Session - Logan, Carly and Coconut

Date: 10/10/15 | Location: Residence, League City

Beautiful morning...a little humid, but beautiful. I met Coconut first. Her owners have her well-trained. She was able to be off-leash and never ran away. I started taking some group shots with all three subjects. We had to keep treats and a tennis ball handy because after a while, Coconut's attention span diminished greatly, Ha! I had a lot of fun taking photos of Logan, Carly and Coconut.
