How to Create Repeating Patterns in Adobe Photoshop

Spoon Graphics

Our Sweet Little Verbena

Old Brand New

Sponsored by Hill’s. Before our cat Verbena came along, my heartmate and I thought we had a complete little family with our two dogs, Luigi and Sterling. She, on the other hand, had other plans.

Joe McNally

So, it wasn’t enough to simply fly the camera on the Gitzo tripod on a moving vehicle and fire it remotely. Had to do some small flash lighting as well. It was necessary.
