This tripod is great because you don't have to depend on a super flat surface to get great photos. Need to hang it of some railing? Go for it! Need to nestle it up on a tree branch or something? Perfect! And it has a remote shutter so there's no rushing to beat that photo timer.

If you're taking a family photo out in nature (whether it's the woods, a field or your own yard), a visually pleasing blanket makes it more comfortable to hunker down and helps bring the picture together. This one is chic and it has a neat set of straps for transporting it.

Pets are part of the family, so of course you want them in the photo. The only trouble is sometimes Fido gets a little antsy and uncooperative. Help your pooch calm down and relax for your portrait session with these highly-rated (almost 13,000 reviews!) anti-anxiety chews!
