Maybe it is the visual contrast of it all or maybe it’s just so downright adorable, but Andy Seliverstoff’s photographs are undoubtedly special. Seliverstoff had always taken to big dogs, having owned a St Bernard and then a Great Dane. Together with his four-legged companion, he used to partake of and photograph numerous dog shows in and around his home city of St. Petersburg, Russia. Then one day good friends asked him to photograph their 2-year-old, to which he obliged. But the aspects that made this particular photo shoot special were the specific shots of the little tot with the family Great Dane who they happened to bring along.

Seeing the magic of the little girl and the large dog together sparked a project that Seliverstoff embarked on, focusing purely on capturing shots of little kids along with their big dogs. Despite this project starting barely four months ago, his work has seen global fame via his social channels, which contain numerous shots of adorable kids with a variety of big, exotic dogs such as Newfoundlands, Leonbergers, Bracco Italianos and more. Doggie diversity notwithstanding, it is the magic of the moment that he manages to capture so spectacularly in each of this shots.
