I want to introduce you to my social project called “Sharejoy.” It is an innovative, non-commercial augmented reality project dedicated to supporting children undergoing cancer treatment.

The team of this project created a free “Sharejoy AR” augmented reality app which is designed to work with digital photos, storybook, postcards, and printed pictures. The app contains 10 interactive animated and joyful dog characters―the participants of the “Sharejoy” project.

Although I am a portraiture photographer and work with people, for this project, I chose dogs as my main models. My goal was to enhance children’s emotional well-being with a dose of positive emotions elicited by “Sharejoy’s” creations, so funny dog pictures were the best decision.

My goal as a photographer and the leading person of this social project is to share the joy with every participant of the “Sharejoy” project because I believe that recovery starts with positive thinking and a vivacious mood.

You can try this app by installing it (Android or Apple) and pointing your device at the dogs’ pictures below.

Rejoice and share the joy with everyone!

It was full of laughter and positive emotions

Along with the exhibited pictures, we also printed postcards and published books for children with the dogs of the project
