Photographer Jasper Cable Alexander Releases 'A Proper Dog'
A three-year analog photography project explores the humor, rituals, and community found within British dog shows.
Jasper Cable Alexander, son of Royal photographer Lord Snowdon, has turned a challenging period of medical recovery into a celebrated creative project. Spending three years traveling to Crufts, specialist Chihuahua competitions, and local village hall shows across the U.K., Alexander captured the quirky subculture of British dog exhibitions.
Photographed almost entirely on analog film, his newly released book, 'A Proper Dog', shifts the focus away from winning towards the underlying rituals, friendships, and community bonds that define these gatherings.
