Candice Sedighan's Flickr page has received the attention it is deserving of. As the social media forum is a division of the Yahoo brand, the company flew Sedighan out to New York where it would interview the 20 year old photographer.
Central to Sedighan's work is her Golden Retriever Champ. She managed to capture moments that appear to be photoshopped, though she actually captures the puppy in its essence. In many of the images, he comes across as smiling, no doubt an offshoot of the sparkles, butterflies and flowers that he is surrounded by.
The artist believes she is getting at Champ's true feelings, "The time Champ and I spend together, he’s just always beaming with happiness and you can really see that through my photos."
