This is what happens when you ask a photographer to cat-sit for you

I love photographing animals in the studio, and I’m obviously not the only one. When actor and photographer Josell Mariano was asked to look after his friend’s cat, Jade, for whom an Instagram account has now been created, Mariano decided to go a little… “extra”.

With a full-on photo shoot, Mariano recreated a cheesy 80s style portrait session. Yes, with a cat. And the results are both hilarious and amazing.

One user on Reddit, by the name of The_Phantom_Fap decided that it didn’t have quite enough lasers to truly qualify as an 80s style photo shoot. So, they decided to add some.

I think I might have to start doing this when friends ask me to babysit their pets while they’re away.
