I would suggest another way of handling the photos. If you do dogs one day
and bitches another,at the end of dogs or bitches judging ,you would have all
your dogs or bitches gathering to go in for winners. Take the pictures
before or after winners class. All dogs are there. The photographer is in
place
and all set up . The owners are there to get the dog's attention. One dog
after
another can be photographed in a very short time. If the Pres or Show chair
is going to be in the picture, they only have to be at the area one
time,instead of this getting everyone there after each class. Much more
efficient
,much less time Easier for the photographer. I've done Bitches twice at the
National,as well as Intersex.,and always did my photos at the end.. I feel as
Barbara does ,you lose your momentum. If you do the Dogs one day and Bitches
the next--its just like Specials. You judge all day,with a 45 min lunch
break,and when you are through, everyone is relaxed and you take pictures.
This
taking pictures after each class,came about for two reasons,I think. Our
Specialty Shows are smaller now and if it takes most of the day,no one minds.
So we
got in the habit of taking pictures after each class ,so everyone who wanted
a photo could get it,and the show photographer could make some money The
National is another ball of wax The other reason was, they do the gaiting
video
of each winner,or placer,and got in the habit of topping it off with a still
photo. Believe me, it is much less wasted time(no down time) if you go right
through and finish judging your dogs,and then take photos, I did the photos
before winners,to give the open animal a rest. But it could be done either way
the judge wanted it. Just something else to consider. Helen
