I Fido You — Love Without Conditions

Photographs by Nico Nardomarino, in collaboration with the National League for the Defence of Dogs – Conversano, presented by Youmanity.

Some connections defy language. They begin with a glance, a gesture, or a heartbeat — and grow into a silent understanding between two beings who have both known vulnerability.
“I Fido You” is a photo campaign that celebrates this remarkable relationship between humans and animals: a bond that heals, uplifts, and reveals the beauty in every form of diversity.

Through the lens of Nico Nardomarino, each image captures the quiet power of empathy — a touch that restores trust, a moment that replaces fear with affection.
His portraits tell stories of companionship and courage: of animals once abandoned who found safety in human arms, and of people who discovered hope through the love of a rescued friend.

Beyond the artistry of the photographs lies a message that reaches to the heart of our humanity: love has no conditions.
Animals remind us that worth is never measured by appearance, age, or status. To them, kindness is enough. They see who we are, not what we have. In doing so, they teach us that discrimination — in any form — has no place in a compassionate world.

“I Fido You” also honours those who give without expecting anything in return — the individuals who adopt, foster, or volunteer simply out of love for other living beings.
Their generosity restores dignity to animals in need and offers a quiet example of what humanity can be at its best: selfless, gentle, and deeply connected to life in all its forms.

The campaign also shines a light on the healing role that animals play in human wellbeing.
For those facing mental health challenges, disability, or grief, a pet can provide comfort, purpose, and stability. And in return, the human bond offers these animals safety, belonging, and care. Healing, as these images remind us, is always mutual.

For Youmanity, “I Fido You” perfectly embodies the charity’s ethos — to nurture empathy, inclusion, and respect for diversity in all its expressions.
In a world that often separates rather than unites, this campaign invites us to pause and witness love in its simplest form: shared, wordless, unconditional.

Through Nardomarino’s compassionate eye, we are reminded that kindness builds bridges — between species, between hearts, between all who choose to care.
Ultimately, “I Fido You” is not just a campaign; it’s a testament to renewal, trust, and the quiet strength of compassion to change lives, one gesture at a time.
