  Andrey said " It's not an easy task to photograph both children and dogs." 

  Andrey who has been photographing dogs separately for the last 20 years though it might be a challenge this time around. Especially with a child so young. He was so inspired by famous artists such as the works of Elena Shumilova and C. Murray who shoot similar scenes, and became interesting in 'kids and dogs themes'.

Saying " I was so lucky to be part of this interesting project by a talented photographer... It was one of the best photo sessions, Andrey was able to show the two things I couldn't live without, dancing and dogs."
