# Intimate Canine Portraits Elke Vogelsang Reveals a New Side of Her Three Dogs By Jamie Danielle Munro | Published 2014-03-22 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canine-portraits References: [mymodernmet](http://www.mymodernmet.com/profiles/blogs/elke-vogelsang-dog-portrait-photography) & [wieselblitz.de](http://wieselblitz.de/en/) When it comes to canine portraits, talented photographer Elke Vogelsang has managed to capture the varying personalities of her three beautiful canines. Through using an intimate setting and various camera and lighting techniques, Vogelsang gives viewers an entirely new perspective on the world of a cute pup. Most of her portraits consist of a blackened background, with the dogs front and center. She also has them doing various tricks, including balancing an egg on the nose, and holding a blooming flower in their jaws. The best images I find are the ones of the dogs mid-movement, as you are able to see moments that the naked eye can't capture. Elke Vogelsang is available for wedding photography and other canine portraits, but her favorite pastime is spending the day with these [cute, furry animals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cesar-love-like-crazy). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/pets) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Canine Portraits:** Opportunity for photographers to explore intimate and unique perspectives of dogs in their portraits. - **Intimate Setting:** Businesses can create intimate settings and environments to capture the personalities and emotions of their subjects. - **Camera and Lighting Techniques:** Innovations in camera and lighting technology can revolutionize the way photographers capture and showcase their subjects. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Photography:** Photography businesses can adapt and offer specialized services for capturing unique and intimate portraits of dogs. - **Pet Industry:** Opportunity for pet businesses to incorporate intimate and creative portraits of dogs into their branding and marketing strategies. - **Technology:** Tech companies can develop new camera and lighting innovations specifically tailored for capturing the personalities of animals and pets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI Pet Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drawmypet.md) - [Pet-Taken Camera Initiatives](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartography.md) - [AI Pet Photo Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pawfoto.md) - [AI Pet Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-lens-ai.md) - [Spooky Charming Pet Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crown-paw.md) - [AI Pet Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/petpic-ai.md) - [AI-Enhanced Pet Adoption Photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personality-pics.md) - [Hand-Decorated Dog Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woofkies.md) - [Canine-Friendly Action Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kivi-action-camera.md)
