Becoming Parents

Becoming parents and caring for children does not only imply joy, happiness, love and fulfilment as often portrayed in mainstream media and advertising. Parenting also involves anger, desperation, exhaustion, fear and pain. It includes daily obstacles and challenges, that push the parents to their mental and physical limits and allow them to grow beyond. The responsibility for a tiny human weighs heavily.
‘Becoming Parents’ is an honest photographic work about the transition to parenthood allowing other parents to feel understood and non-parents to gain a realistic insight. Within this autobiographical and long term series, I have documented in a raw manner the entire range of emotions within my everyday family life.
