Earlier this summer my husband and I spent some time traveling in the Pacific Northwest. While we were there I saw all sorts of foxes, fox Christmas ornaments that is. Maybe because they actually have foxes that run around naturally up there that stores would carry such cute things. So when I saw this adorable fox, I just had to have it.

The first assignment I always give to my beginning photo students is exploring one object from a variety of vantage points. I thought it would be fun to do the project with my kids and take photos of something in my house. When my eyes saw this little guy on the piano, I knew it was the perfect subject to photograph.

The first photo of my fox is shot from an angled perspective. When you get your subject from the side, it allows you to see a whole new side of them. Doesn’t she look so regal here?

In these shots, I have to say she is the cutest fox EVER! And her backside is super foxy too. It’s always fun to shoot from above to get a bird’s eye view of your subject. But sometimes you have get a little uncomfortable to get below your subject for a worm’s eye view, but it can yield a cool shot if you do.
