Best Friend Napping Photography

Theo and Beau Show that Dogs and Humans have a Special Connection

— December 10, 2013 — Lifestyle
Jessica Shyba of Momma's Gone City, a blogger based in New York and California, has given people an early Christmas gift in the form of Theo and Beau, her new puppy and adorable toddler son. She writes, "Theo and Beau have a connection that I can only explain as completely natural and instantaneous. They behave as though they’ve been friends for life already [...]." This connection is never more obvious then during their nap sessions.

Shyba has created a photo series on Instagram, appropriately dubbed Theo and Beau, that captures their unique sleeping habits. Whether lying back to back, cuddled together or sprawled over the bedsheets, they are clearly inseparable even in sleep. This is like a Calvin & Hobbes relationship.
Trend Themes
1. Human-animal Connection - Exploring the deep bond and connection between humans and animals, creating opportunities for products and services that foster this relationship.
2. Nap-time Photography - The development of photography projects that capture endearing moments of humans and animals napping together, presenting opportunities for photo studios and themed merchandise.
3. Inseparable Companionship - Highlighting the inseparability of human-animal friendships, leading to opportunities for pet-related businesses to create products and services that promote companionship.
Industry Implications
1. Photography - The photography industry can take advantage of the trend by offering specialized services such as pet photography sessions or collaborating with social media influencers.
2. Pet Products - The pet products industry has the opportunity to develop innovative products that enhance the bond between humans and animals, such as matching nap-time pillows or interactive toys.
3. Social Media - The trend in human-animal connection and adorable napping moments provides social media platforms and content creators with opportunities for engagement and monetization through sponsored posts and partnerships.
