Tip #1: Get Down!
“Too many people shoot photos of their dog or cat looking up at them. The poor thing usually looks trapped. The key is to get down at their level. Lie on the ground if you have to.”
That’s some down and dirty advice from Chicago pet photographer Rhonda Holcomb. That’s her dog Gracie above, posing oh so gracefully.
Tip #2: Holcomb says don’t waste your time and money with a big fancy camera.
“The best pet shots I’ve ever seen were taken with smartphones. The cameras are so good now – they’re going to put me out of business.”
Looking for a new phone with a camera worthy of your best friend? You might want to focus in on the DROID RAZR MAXX by Motorola.
In addition to its all-day battery, eye-popping display, and dog slobber-proof KEVLAR® coating, the RAZR MAXX sports an excellent camera.
The camera features an 8 MP sensor, 8x digital zoom, image stabilizer, auto focus, in-camera editing tools, and 720p HD video.
Tip #3: Be ready for action.
“The best shots of pets are when they’re caught doing something,” says Holcomb.
Fortunately, the RAZR MAXX has a tool for capturing pet action: multi-shot mode. When it’s activated, press the “take photo” button and RAZR MAXX takes a series of six quick shots all in a row. That way you’re sure to get the absolute perfect shot of Buddy with his head in the garbage can.

Keys? Check. Wallet? Check. Phone charger? Whoa–wait a minute.
If you don’t leave your house without a charger in tow, it’s time to think about whether your smartphone really fits your life. Smartphones are supposed to make your life easier, after all. But if you’re always worried that your battery might die, that’s a big headache just waiting to happen.
One solution: get a phone that can go all day, like the DROID RAZR MAXX. Just charge it up at night, and in the morning you’ll be good to go, the whole day through.

Think about how easy it to make a phone call, text someone or look up the score of a game, all with the click of a button? Smartphone technology has made it incredibly easy to connect with people across the world and Motorola continues to deliver innovative technology with the new DROID RAZR MAXX by Motorola, the longest talk time of any 4G smartphone. But in 1983, one hour of talk time and eight hours of standby time with a LED display was a truly revolutionary invention.
On September 21, 1983, the United States Federal Communication Commission approved the the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, the world’s first commercial portable cellular phone. Available to consumers shortly after in 1984, the DynaTAC 8000X weighed 28 ounces and was 13 x 1.75 x 3.5 inches in dimension. Compare that to the DROID RAZR by Motorola which weighs 127 grams and is 130.7 x 68.9 x 7.1 mm and you see how far technology has progressed.
Not familiar with the Motorola DynaTACR 800X? There are some photos above. We also encourage you to check out our Facebook Timeline, where you’ll find photos and stories from more than 50 of our most historic milestones. Look closely for your chance to win a DROID RAZR MAXX by Motorola! Official Rules are right here.
