Kate Flowers, Portrait in lace (PEOPLE 2023)

Taking advantage of some harsh lighting conditions via the sun, I wanted the delicate pattern of the lace to fall down and cover my daughter's body while she lay curled up beneath. I love how striking this image is, and how effective the lace pattern is - while delicate in many ways, it is also strong and has a timeless quality.
