Italian Photographers Capture the Emotions of Dogs

Emanuela Colombo and Mario Forcherio are photographers from Turin, Italy, who specialize in pet photography. They started their business Dogs and Us Photography ten years ago, in 2009.

“Starting from personal experience with our dogs, we realized how valuable the dog-master relationship is and we concentrate on this. We try to grasp what unites them and translate it into images. You need empathy, passion and lots and lots of patience,” they explain.

Their decade-long experience allows them to quickly recognize emotions in dogs and to capture them on camera. The result is a series of amazing photos on their Instagram feed that we’re in love with! See them below.
