This Woman Put Together A Newborn Photoshoot…For Her Dog!!

Jamie Clauss is a portrait photographer based in Huntsville, Alabama. She and her neighbors were hanging out after a photoshoot one afternoon when they had a whimsical – and wonderful – idea. Why not stage a heartwarming newborn photoshoot? Unfortunately, none of the non-parent pals had a baby available to photograph.

That's where Jamie's precocious Jack Russel Terrier, Snuggles, stepped in!

Please SHARE this adorable newborn photoshoot, perfectly duplicated with a delightful doggy!

Count It Joy Photography was already all set up after do a newborn shoots, and Snuggles turned out to be a natural in front of the camera.

Critics of the "newborn" doggy photoshoot asserted that the couple should treat their dogs like dogs...NOT like babies. “It’s funny because all these commenters are like, ‘Dogs shouldn’t be people.’ That’s the joke! That’s the point,” said Jamie Clauss. T

If the love Ms. Clauss shows for her dog is any indication of how nurturing she is, then I think it's clear she'll make an AWESOME human mom some day. Please SHARE these delightful newborn-doggy photos with all of your friends.
