Abby Lee and Matt Kay, like many young couples, were frequently asked by their in-laws, “So when are you having kids?” But it was this pestering, however, that led to one Barely Noticeable photo shoot of their new addition. Not a baby, but a sweet puppy named Humphrey!
“We were coming back from picking up puppy Humphrey the Groodle [Golden Retriever/Poodle] when we came up with the idea to do a puppy shoot,” Elisha Minnette told iHeartDogs.com, who is not only a professional photographer but also a great friend of the couple.
“Abby and I both work in the creative industry and have the craziest sense of humour, always coming up with funny and random ideas to have a laugh,” she explains. “I photograph all different types of shoots including newborns, so I knew what the normal baby shoots look like. We didn’t ever intend to make fun of new parents sharing photos of their newborns, we just wanted to show a different kind of newborn.”
There was no planning for this spur-of-the-moment shoot, which only took about an hour to complete.
“Humphrey was a delight to shoot, he loved all the attention and the treats of course!” said Minnette.
Lee and Kay do plan on having kids, but not until the far future. Minnette says they want to travel and experience the world before making that commitment.
Sounds like Humphrey is in for some adventures!
