You see, I have the mistaken impression that all bunnies are great models. Boy, was I suprised when my two bunnies tricked me into pushing the shutter button then sidestepped the len at the last possible moment. I end up with blur streaks of white and black 
So I resorted to taking their photos on the fly, when they are asleep or caught unaware and those quick snap moments when they are blinded by flashes. Needless to say, they are not in a salable quality. 
But yesterday one of my bun bun actually stood up and pose for me when I asked her too 
She was so obliging for the second and third shot too!
So all pet owners out there, are your pets perfect models? Or do you have chase after them like a crazed tourist?

My dogs usually not easy to get pictures of them. They seem to know when i wanted to take photograph of them. Usually, I just asked my sister to hug them so they don't move nowhere. Or sometimes I just dangling snack or cookies infront of them so they keep their focus at me.
But it didnot work sometimes cause they will jump at me and trying to eat the cookies.

urgh..you never know with my bunch of cats.
one will take a picture,but he'll either look away,or the shot won't come out quite right due to his dark fur.
another is more than happy to pose,as long as it's not with another cat..
the third..the calico..no way,no how,not ever.
she hisses at the camera and runs away.i've even tried it without the flash,same result-UNLESS my brother takes the picture.then she'll pose.
i've been snubbed LOL.

Well my animals sure don't pose for pictures. They just get bored and move away. I have tried everything, like telling the dogs to sit and stay and that lasts about 30 seconds. The goats are not so bad cause they are so fascinated with what I am doing that they will just stand there. The cats, just forget about it as far as getting their picture taken. Unless, like you, I can catch them unaware or just get them on the run.
By the way, I love the picture of your bunny aviator. I have never had bunnies of my own but had some around for a little while.
