Anthropomorphism in photography is the art of attributing human traits, emotions, or intentions to non-human subjects — whether animals, objects, or even landscapes. A photo of a dog with a knowing grin, a tree that seems to bow, or a teapot posed like it’s whispering a secret can all invite viewers to connect on a deeply personal level. The key is not only in spotting these human-like qualities but also in using composition, lighting, and perspective to emphasize them. By doing so, photographers create images that are playful, thought-provoking, and rich with story — transforming the ordinary into something surprisingly relatable.
