Russian photographer, Katerina Plotnikova created portraits with real animals , that aren’t the work of Photoshop, but real-life interactions between fearless models and dangerous wild animals.
Plotnikova lives in Moscow, Russia, but her photos look like scenes from a mythical world. She creates a unique wonderland in each of her photos making her models seem like nymphs, graceful yet wild. These amazing portraits with real animals show photographs of delicate models holding wild animals such as slithering snakes, baby foxes and even adorable hedgehogs.
While this seems very dangerous, the photos were taken with 2 professional animal trainers on-hand at all times. Just have a look at these stunningly beautiful and surreal photos!
