Aya Sakai's Instagram feed has been devoted to the relation shared between her son and his French Bulldog. Sakai has done so in a candid manner, displaying the adorable duo to the public as they cuddled before television sets and juice boxes.
Sakai is based in Tokyo, Japan. Her documentation has piqued the interest of pet lovers and parents alike, prompting her followers to not only keep up with her feed, but also to begin their own related projects. Best of all is the relaxed attitude that characterizes all of her images. While there are several on her profile, few are embellished with edits, filters or scene constructions, enabling her to build a natural portfolio.
