The Other Side.

I have worked on this project for the past 4 months. In order to read the text that goes with the images you might have to click on the images to enlarge them. It is Liam's thoughts about what he sees or what he feels about a situation that is captioned under the pictures. I hope you will take the time to look carefully at each image, they all tell a story.

Thanks.

Creative statement

When Liam was 3, he was diagnosed with leukemia. As a side effect from the chemotherapy, Liam’s lungs turned into scar tissue. By the age of 10 Liam was dependent on oxygen, with his only hope of survival a double lung transplant. That was a year ago.

I met Liam in the hospital where I was his primary nurse. After his lung transplant I have had the opportunity to follow Liam as a photographer as well. In documenting his life I have seen him struggle with pain. I have seen his vulnerability and his frustrations. I have also witnessed "his other side", his happy moments and his small victories.

As always, I would love comments of what you think!
