Children And Animals Cuddle In Cute Photoshoots By Russian Photographer Elena Karneeva
Children's relationships with animals and with each other are free of many of the misconceptions and unfounded fears that can infect our minds later in life. It is this innocence that Elena Karneeva, a professional child and family photographer based in Moscow, captures in her beautiful photos of children and animals.
The children in each image seem to great the animals posing together with them as friends, rather than as dumb beasts or as food. The dogs, pigs, goats and other critters inspire beautiful rural images that remind us of another Russian photographer as well – Elena Shumilova.
Be sure to check out her website for her other creative photography – she's definitely not limited to babies and animals!

They have a secret......one that only children and animals understand
Amazing! My favorite one. There is such a beauty in it, little girl's smile, the boy playing around, the owl...they seem like old friends :)
Brilliant nature Owl and humans in harmony if only this would be the same all over the world ....!
Awesome!!! This image has it all ! Expression, emotion, placement of subjects, impact!!! 100 perfect!
I think many of these are photoshopped or else she is a reckless mum to let the (other) fully grown animals get so close to her kids.
I think many of them are photoshopped. Foolish mum to trust the other fully-grown animals this way.
Very Nostalgic, Whimsical and intriguing. Ready for the journey to begin.
It looks as if she is taking this animal in town for sale in exchange for items to feed the family back at the cottage. This tells a story
I just wonder what she is thinking. Such a cute lil' girl with her adorable pony.
The animal pelts in which the child on the right is cozily nesting look like the relatives of the animal she's rubbing noses with.
The repeat of the deer's color in the child's boots and cap makes this photo sparkle
Outstandingly beautiful. A brief portrait of life during the millennial reign Christ on earth.
She is so incredibly gifted, the use of color in otherwise grey surroundings I brilliant.
These are startling for their clarity, beauty and color! Other wordly !
