Dogs With Stories is Mardo El-Noor’s desperate call for attention, camouflaged as a vanity project and disguised in a book of pictures and text.
Featuring about a hundred good dogs and a hundred dog owners, the book contains a series of hyperrealistic staged scenes, set in the real homes and workplaces of those who share their lives with furry best friends. This book is a great gift to buy for yourself if you are a fan of David LaChapelle, Annie Leibovitz, or Norman Rockwell. It’s also a perfect present for a family member, friend, or client who’s into dogs or interior design, especially if you’ve run out of options when it comes to cookbooks and rugby biographies.
About the author:
Mardo El-Noor is a hybrid creative who makes a living off creating stuff he likes, such as directing and animating commercial ads, music videos and branding content. When he's home he keeps himself busy with projects that involve interior design, upcycling and heaps of dust. He's German-born and Middle-East raised, and has called New Zealand home for 20 years. Dogs With Stories is his first foray into staged photography and writing and hopefully won't be his last. Not a dog owner himself, Mardo hopes he will have taken the leap of becoming one by the time you read this.
