Jos\u00e9 Juan Medina never planned on becoming a photographer<\/a>. But four years ago, he adopted his dog, Drogo, and was inspired to pick up a camera as a new hobby.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a job. I\u2019m a manual laborer,\u201d Medina told The Dodo. \u201cI bought a camera to take photos of my little dog.\u201d<\/p>\n

And from there, a passion grew.<\/p>\n

Though Drogo would be Medina\u2019s first furry muse, the pup wouldn\u2019t be his only one.<\/p>\n

As Medina\u2019s photography hobby progressed, he continued to purchase higher-quality cameras to capture moments in even more vivid detail. And he began aiming his lens at other people\u2019s dogs.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow I have a setup that many people dream of owning,\u201d Medina said. \u201cI started by going to dog parks and agility competitions. Sometimes owners ask me to photograph their dogs, but I also choose which dogs to feature myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among Medina\u2019s signature photography approaches is capturing dogs in flight as they happily leap in midair.<\/p>\n

Medina shared a video showing how he and his furry models work together to create the perfect midair shots.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re wondering what kind of jump they\u2019ll take, whether they\u2019ll be fast and skillful, and if they\u2019ll lead with their little paws,\u201d Medina said. \u201cI love capturing them when they have that look of pure speed. You catch them in the middle of the action \u2014 running or flying.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through his hobby, Medina has had the opportunity to meet many dogs and their owners and to learn their stories.<\/p>\n

And he hopes to meet many more.<\/p>\n

\u201cI form a real bond with them while photographing them,\u201d Medina said.<\/p>\n

There are countless sources of inspiration for budding photographers to pursue. But in pups, Medina found his perfect subjects in pups.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I love is their naturalness,\u201d Medina said. \u201cThey don\u2019t try to put on a front. They\u2019re just being themselves, and they always look great.\u201d<\/p>\n
