I photographed the real life Little Chonk! Meet Maxine 📸 #corgi #corgicrew #dogphotography

Found the real life Little Chonk! 😳 I interview a lot of dog owners, and one thing I always hear is how these animals change our lives for the better. But this story is extra special ✨ I reached out to Bryan and Maxine when I was in NYC to see if we could link up for a quick photoshoot. While we were taking photos, I asked Bryan about the story of @heylittlechonk and his response blew me away. The entire brand started because he wanted to bring Maxine, his adorable Corgi, to work with him. The only issue? The subway requires all dogs to be in carriers. He looked at all the different options on the market… most were too big or clunky, and the bag-style carriers missed the mark in terms of quality and ease of use. So he did what any reasonable dog-obsessed parent would do… He made his own bag! 😅 And because he was making it for himself, he wanted to do it right. No cutting corners. It had to be safe & comfortable, both for him and Maxine. This simple act of love for his dog developed into a thriving business, and now they're the top dog-backpack brand in the world. Even @littlebearlumi and @mattyandkaido have one! This is such a great example of how dogs can impact our lives in profound ways. And how deep the bond we have with our dogs really is. 📍 Dumbo, Brooklyn
