Man's Best Friend

Photography by Cedric Terrell

"My love for dogs has grown over the years, dramatically increasing with the addition of Chance, a Golden Retriever/Yellow Labrador, to my family last year," photographer Cedric Terrell explains. "Over this past summer, I traveled to my hometown of Tampa, Florida to photograph local models and rescue dogs from Paw Print Hearts & Second Chance Boxer Rescue with the intention of creating images that would raise awareness for their cause, while helping some of these very deserving dogs find forever homes.

"This project was inspired by my huge love for dogs and overall appreciation of men's fashion. I combined the two, bringing about a series of gorgeous men & their best friends. The men featured in this series are all from my social network in the Washington, D.C., area. Over 20 men men and their pups were used for this project. Enjoy!"
