Humanized Anthropomorphic Photography

Photographer Miguel Vallinas Creates Odd Animal Pieces

— August 17, 2013 — Unique
Anyone who has ever owned an animal has probably imagined what their furry friend would look like if they had human qualities, and photographer Miguel Vallinas explores the humanistic side of animals.

Capturing these portraits is an artistic feat. Vallinas has used animals such as a fox, dog, peacock and a deer and has put them in clothes. These pictures are eerie, because although the body is of an animal, the rest of the picture looks as though they should be human. The lighting, poses and outfits perfectly represent a photo shoot that would have taken place for a person. The clothes have also been impeccably matched to the personalities of the animals.

Miguel Vallinas has done an incredible job of evoking a human feeling out of animal photographs, and has made a series that requires a double take.
