Baby Lily

Born at 26.5 weeks... this incredible, beautiful, strong little one blew me away. She was smaller at 6 months than my son was at birth (he was 9.9lb, admittedly a bit of a beast).

I invited Lois and Lily to the studio at the beginning of the year, at first because I was searching for some incredible curly haired women (I just had a hankering to shoot some wild curls) but also because Lily was premature and I wanted to show people how strong, amazing and tough little preemies can be despite everything that they have been through.
