He made photographs of dogs. He used a two and a quarter camera and always 8x10. Some challenges of taking photos of animals is trying to make them stay still and not move around especially when you have a low shutter speed. His influences were comedian Bob and Rey, and the writer Borges. He compared his videos to his manifesto. I like his work because of how he was able to control the dog so well for his videos.

Wegman made photographs of dogs. He used a 20 x 24 polaroid camera and an 8.5 x 11 and 9 x 12. It would be hard to photograph dogs because they won’t always stay still and they can’t always go into the positions that you want them to go in. Dogs simply can’t always do what you want them to do. He was influenced by a comedian Bob and ray and the writer Borges. He also compares his work to comedies. I kinda like Wegman’s works because it’s creative and interesting.

At first, he always used a two and a quarter camera, always shot 8x10, not wall size. When he first started shooting videos, he used a camera and a monitor. As he got into photography, she still preferred to shoot 8.5x11 or 9x12, as he didn’t want to shoot bigger than magazine size. However, when he was introduced to this 20x24 Polaroid camera, he loved it and ended up using it for the majority of his later shoots.
