  • On the living room floor at home, a young mother grabs a few minutes to herself to exercises her pelvic floor muscles three weeks after giving birth to a baby girl who lies asleep in a Moses basket carry cot on the carpet. She rotates her hips to her right, twisting her body to regain strength in her lower torso, still sore from labour. This is from a documentary series of pictures about the first year of the photographer's first child Ella. Accompanied by personal reflections and references from various nursery rhymes, this work describes his wife Lynda's journey from expectant to actual motherhood and for Ella - from new-born to one year-old.

  • A two and half year-old girl meets her sleeping baby brother for the first time on his actual birthday. In the maternity ward at Kings College Hospital, Camberwell, London, the child reaches out with the maternal instincts of her gender to touch the fragile infant who is wrapped up in an NHS blanket in a cot that was wheeled directly from the birthing room a few hours beforehand. The baby boy is oblivious to his sister's affection and attention but he is healthy and already thriving before waking up for his first feeds. From a personal documentary project entitled "Next of Kin" about the photographer's two children's early years spent in parallel universes.

  • With a large hand from her worried mother gently caressing her head, a tiny premature new-born born baby sleeps on its side with an oxygen tube in its nose, while gathering strength in her incubator at the Royal London Hospital, Whitechapel, London, England. In her warm cot, a toy bear looks on in the corner and a poem writen on a card from the baby's parents has been attached to the plastic wall. It is a tender moment of hope, that this precious young human life can continue to grow into adulthood and be loved by all. The Royal London Hospital is one of London's oldest, having been founded in 1740 and is a major teaching hospital in Whitechapel, East London..

  • On a labour ward at Kings College Hospital, London, a young mother sits back and rests before being transferred to a bed on the maternity ward. Wearing a hospital gown and an identity wrist tag, leans back exhausted on a wall with eyes closed, reflecting on the last 24 hours of labour, contractions and the birth of her first child, a baby girl who    sleeps in a cot next to her mother. Tissues and a drink cups are on the table in front but the new mum is too tired to reach out for a sip. This is from a documentary series of pictures about the first year of the photographer's first child Ella. Accompanied by personal reflections and references from various nursery rhymes, this work describes his wife Lynda's journey from expectant to actual motherhood and for Ella - from new-born to one year-old.

  • "Brave New World." On a maternity ward at Kings College Hospital, London, a tiny new-born baby girl sleeps in her cot at the foot of her mother's bed. We see the mum's legs and feet pointing towards some curtains against which her infant is wrapped in an NHS shawl to keep her snug and warm. But it's Summer and the bedding is ruffled at the bottom to keep the heat down for an exhausted mother comfortable in an otherwise airless room. It is a scene of serenity and safety, at a time when mother and baby are bonding. This is from a documentary series of pictures about the first year of the photographer's first child Ella. Accompanied by personal reflections and references from various nursery rhymes, this work describes his wife Lynda's journey from expectant to actual motherhood and for Ella - from new-born to one year-old.
