entry description
As a gay father of twins I have been photographing other gay fathers and theirs children for the past 4 years. I portrayed a very diverse group of families all over the United States. While witnessing their daily lives I found out how similar these families are to straight families but at the same time tried to highlight many aspects that make them unique. I hope to inspire gay men who want to start their own family but still have a lot of legal, financial and social hurdles to overcome in many parts of the world.Uma with her grandmother
