nothing too fancy, but I am just getting started, so I would like to know your advice.

also, how do you take decent pictures of them naturally set up? any tips?

Thanks!

She is a good heifer, what I call a 'diamond in the rough'. She may not be the prettiest right now, but with the right feed and some TLC she will turn into something decent. Firstly, get her in front of the feed bucket. Secondly, get her clipped (head, topline, rear). Work her hair.
To get good pictures of them set up you need three people; one in front to prick the ears, one behind to step her ahead and another to take the picture. The picture should always be taken kneeling. Before taking the perfect picture, she needs to be looking tip top. I have also had good luck taking pictures with them in the halter and then Adobe Photoshopping the halter out and my hand out.
She is a very good heifer that just needs lots of feed and time. Congrats  (clapping)

Thanks for the reply! This was before she was weaned. She was completely off of her ma last week and I've been feeding her Show-Rite cattle feed and hay. I'll have to post some pictures after I clip her and after shes been on feed for awhile. Thanks Again!
