You probably do it too. A new lens or camera arrives in the mail and you immediately lose sight of all the daydreaming you’d done while waiting for your package to arrive.

Pet photography is the farthest thing from your mind. You tear off the bubble wrap and what do you shoot first? Cats.

What resulted is a gorgeous and heart-warming project titled Animal Soul.
