INEZ + VINOODH's dog, Leo Moon
Love of their lives, Ines and Vinoodh post Leo's pic every day at @INEZVINOODH. I don't know who is cuter, Leo or their son Charles!
Richard Phibbs is an angel of an animal lover
Photographer and gentleman. Shoots celebrities and fashion, but really does a good dog―and really IS a good human. For the past several years, Richard has devoted a big chunk of his work life to finding all of these sweet souls a home. Working with the Humane Society of New York, he goes into a tiny examination room to take arresting and compassionate portraits of these scared little creatures who need to be seen to be loved. And he has been relentless: Of the 180+ dogs Richard has photographed, the majority have found a second chance at life in a new home thanks to his brilliant photographs.
Sebastian Mader loves a leash
Sebastian Mader and Natasha Royt teamed up with Paul Ritter of Glamour magazine to produce these stunning images for the June 2014 issue.
KYOKO HAMADA HAS THE BEST WAY OF LOOKING AT ANIMALS
Gizmo is seen in the last picture and when Kyoko took his picture he knew exactly where to be. As she says about animals, "I think I have a healthy relationship with animals in general. When I grew up in Japan, we had tadpoles, crayfish, koi fish, a pet hamster with one arm, pet squirrels (different than American squirrels), turtles, cats and a dog. My view of animals changed slightly though when I saw wild lions in South Africa up close. I knew instinctively this big orange cat can take me down with one swipe. It gave me much more respect for the wilderness."
Cindy Sherman does not have a dog
But she does have a 24 year old parrot called mister Frieda. I was beyond flattered when she sent me pictures of her parrot after I mentioned my dog website; not to mention that Cindy is one of my most favorite photographers out there right now. Girl crush.
Elinor Carucci is thinking about getting a dog
And in 2003 she shot her friend's cats, Sasha and Digweed, named after the famous DJ. Maybe Elinor, after seeing so many pictures of dogs, will want one now.
Brigitte Lacombe and Studio cat
Before we get too carried away with dogs, I did want to say that the occasional cat, bird, elephant, rabbit, or African Pygmy Hedgehog might appear! But this cat, aka, Brigitte Lacombe's Studio Cat is one of my favorites.
Tim Walker and Jacob K have a fabulous dog
Wit and whimsy is how I think of Tim. Thank you for sharing this gorgeous picture of Stig, looking for a hunt in the hills. Tim and Jacob found Stig chained up outside their house in London 5 years ago and they are, as Tim would say, OBSSESSSSSSED. I get it. And Jacob, nothing finer than a man in a skirt.
Puffy Demarchelier
Would you ever suspect that Patrick Demarchelier would name his dog Puffy?
Lida and Malcolm Morley have a dog that chases sheep.
And apparently Elsa also likes tennis balls from the look of this Malcolm piece from 2009.
Valerie Shaff will be nice to your dog and your horse, I promise.
After being given her first camera at age seven, Valerie's first subject was her dog Taffy. Twenty years later she was taking a picture for a friend and the result was magical; a gorgeous portrait of her friends dog, Cocoa.
My old friend Todd Eberle and his amazing dog REX
Todd once had a dog called T Bone. He was a beautiful, spunky dog and my daughter Sophie loved him so. T-Bone got old and now Todd has a dog named T Rex, half Chihuahua, half Maltese beauty. What a special dog he is. In fact, he lives up to that name of his and is an absolute "king". I think he likes art a lot, especially the Jeff Koons at the Brant Foundation.
Jacques Sonck
Department of the Province of Antwerp), he devoted himself since the mid-1970s on personal projects. He makes penetrating street and studio portraits of prominent figures from all walks of life. In his pictures he goes in search of archetypes. Classical portraits in the style of Diane Arbus. Without any judgment, Jacques Sonck confronts the viewer with charming and disturbing individuals: loners, eccentrics, drop-outs and deformed. Sonck's refined black-white images contain surprising, often anachronistic, aesthetics with remarkable documentary character. Diversity in all its shapes within the human species is depicted in an understated way, without melancholy, compassion or the intent to ridicule.
Katherine Wolkoff share these sublime images of dogs
Katherine took the first image in Ipswich 2003 and second Block Island 2007.
Mickalene Thomas has a dog named Priscilla. Lucky her.
"Old Priscilla is looking good these days. She is happy Spring is here and struts down the street wagging her tail with her tongue hanging from her mouth. She is the sweetest mini Dachs in Forte Greene, Brooklyn. Her best quality is her little legs. They are super cute and smaller than her nose, really."
