Terriers on Black

Terriers on Black is a book project under the umbrella of The Breed Project.  The goal of the project is to photograph all of the breeds in the Terrier Group in the Dog House (mobile studio) and to select the best images for each breed to create the book, Terriers on Black., and a special edition release of Art Cards.

‘Terriers on Black’ is seeking at least one great breeder and their owner group to represent their breed among the Terrier Group.  Each breed’s image collection will be supplemented by individually owned dogs of other breeding in the interest of diversity.

Once all of the breeds have been photographed to satisfaction, the best images representing each breed will be selected to create the book Terriers on Black – A Visual Celebration of the Terrier Group.  For the ‘Terriers on Black’ special edition Art Cards, one iconic image will be selected for each breed for the Limited Edition set, and a group of images will be chosen to make up the Breed Collection creating a card set specific to each breed.

Timeline: The goal is to complete the photographing of all of the terrier breeds by summer 2017.

Participation: Like all of the projects under The Breed Project, Terriers on Black will be funded through participant’s shoots.  The following shoot options are available.
