#notsponsored Once in awhile I get to participate in a group project with a small company. In this case, I joined several talented photographers in creating photos for @muttcloth and @sloppychopsco in a thoughtful project with creative freedom. Not news, but Instagram is a place where creators are regularly offered minimal payment for photography or "free" or "in exchange" products (that can be worth $10). I'm so impressed that two small companies joined forces and wanted to work with us, pay my rates, and had such a wonderful roster of other artists for their lookbook. Speaking of which, check out their lookbook (link on their profiles)! I could go on about how well made their collars and bandanas are but take a look yourself. I'm crazy over the @sloppychopsco personalized embossed collars, and the specialized curated artisan fabrics from @muttcloth . Over the years I've found some really lovely companies to work with and am grateful I can share them with you.
