25 years ago, the 90’s were upon us: Gameboys, Seinfeld, Nirvana and a beauty ideal that is very different from the curvaceous, big booty babes of today. Take a look at Scarlett Johansson, for example, and compare her with the women who embodied beauty in the 90s, like supermodel Kate Moss. The beauty standard in the 90s was a thinness that was borderline skeletal, but bodies of the today celebs wouldn’t have been as trendy, attractive as they are now.

14 months ago we quit our jobs, sold everything we had, and we’ve been travelling around the world ever since. We’ve been to 31 countries so far, and have come into contact with some very friendly animals along the way. Our love of photography urged us to try and take some candid snaps of every animal we met. The look we wanted was a close-up mugshot, so we used ultra-wide angle lenses and got really close to our subjects in order to get the shots.
