WE’RE all familiar with the heart-wrenching pictures of dogs abandoned in animal shelters, but one photographer has found an innovative way of showcasing the pooch’s personality. Working for animal shelter Humane Society of Utah, USA, Guinnevere Shuster, 31, has used a Photobooth style shoot for the past six months to make the pooch’s irresistible and help them find a loving home. The New York-born photographer said: 'I’m always trying to imagine better ways to market the shelter animals and make them appeal to the public.'This photoshoot showcases their great and is a much better way of presenting them as opposed to the sad dog behind the metal bars.
