England - London - Young siblings asleep at home

A two and half year-old girl has a mid-afternoon sleep on the sofa of her parents' home in South London. On the floor is her young baby brother who is also enjoying some rest in his carrying basket. Both are unconscious but getting welcome shut-eye from their activities. Next to the girl is a book with the title 'Babies' Names' because her mum and dad have six weeks, under British law, in which to register a baby's birth and give it a name. From a personal documentary project entitled "Next of Kin" about the photographer's two children's early years spent in parallel universes. Model released.
