From the creators of the It’s Important to Paws book series.
We’re currently seeking cat models – the young and young at heart – who have special relationships with any of the following:
- their person
- another cat
- a dog
- other kinds of animal companions
- itself (that’s all some cats need!)
Most cats selected for this project will be photographed at the studio with their significant other during a 30-60 minute portrait session. In some cases, subjects will be called back for a second photography session.
Participants will be selected, in part, based on a 200-word (or less) story that exemplifies what makes them ideal candidates for this project. Sessions will include up to two subjects but this depends upon your essay and ability to explain why more or fewer subjects should be included.
We’re seeking funny, mischievous, adventurous, poignant and cat-sational stories that, when combined with our photography, will bring smiles to others while creating a greater appreciation of cats as wonderful companions. Happy stories preferred.
This project will culminate in published form however those details will not be revealed until we’ve begun the post-production process.
