Мы с тобой одной крови

This is a series of photographic portraits of people and their pets, in which there is no staging or poses - only sincerity. 

We are much more alike than it seems: in the expression of our eyes, in our poses, in the silence next to each other.
The project is about devotion, trust and how love overcomes species boundaries. Cats, dogs, birds, rabbits - not just pets, but true companions of life.

Each frame is like a co​​​​​​​nfession:
"You are my family. We're of the same blood."

Chapter 1: You are​​​​​​​ not alone.

When you have a furry (or feathered) friend, you're no longer alone.

They live their lives next to us, 

which are several times shorter than the life of a human.

Sometimes they bark, sometimes they purr, sometimes they chew on slippers..... but alway​​​​​​​s love.

They're not just, cats, dogs, parrots. ​​​​​​​

They are our soul mates who prove to us with their lives that love, loyalty and acceptance do not require words - they live in a look, 

a touch, a calmness nearby.

Chapter 2: Mirrors.

An introvert and an extrovert. 

 But so much alike, th​​​​​​​e same face.

The dog is an exact copy of the owner,... 

... only he doesn't smoke a pipe.

Big brother and little pest.

Big brother and little pest.

And the emotion is one for two.

Chapter 3: Love Stories.

"Spy game"
- How's it going? Cooper gone?
- T-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s.... Quiet.
Still sitting.

- How blue the sky is...

"When I was given you, you fit in the palm of my hand, ..."

"... but now I can't hold you in my arms with two hands."

"You grew and matured by my side."

"You're a lifeguard now. And I save people with you."

"My mom and I found you outside in the winter...,"

"... we recognized you right away and took you home."

"Don't be sad, my favorite little heart, tonight, when everyone is asleep,
I'll eat all the slippers. And what I don't eat, I'll hide. 

They'll know how to hurt you."

"I'll do everything for you. Just don't be sad!"

Chapter 4: Gingers.

The most tender, the most colorful love,...

... at first sight and for life.

Who is more brutal than a man or a dog? 

Who is more photogenic than a woman or a cat?

About the uniqueness of the project 

This project is more than a series of photographic portraits. 

It is a visual proof that love, loyalty and acceptance do not depend on species, age or words.
Here a man and his pet are not master and "animal", but equal, kindred souls.
The project is unique in that it combines neural network aesthetics with real, sincere feelings. 

There is no gloss in it - only warm light of intimacy and trust.
Every frame is a soft reminder that 

"we are of the same blood with you".

Image Applications:

Illustrations for books and covers,

Decorations for shelters and veterinary clinics,

Social campaigns "don't abandon" / "take from the shelter",

Exhibitions, calendars, gift publications,

Online gallery and NFT collections with a good message.

There will be no examples of how to use the illustrations in this project, instead there will be a little bonus. 

Why?

This is not a glamorous photo project or a soulless glossy.

This project is an attempt not just to show "people with pets", but to put them "on equal footing". These are almost "double portraits" of identical creatures who have feelings, memory, love and history.

Bonus.

This is one of my favorite neuro-illustrations. 

The kitten in the boy's hands is an exact copy 

of the four-legged member of my family.

Thank you!

Let's work together!
