This loving mother, Holly Spring, took up photography after her daughter had struggled early on in life with Hirschsprung’s Disease and no left hand. She wants to show her daughter that there are no limits to what she can achieve if she just believes in herself.

“My daughter is my muse and my heart that inspires me to follow my passion and share these unique photos and digital art with you,” says Holly.

Her photography won the NZIPP/Epson Iris Portrait Creative Photographer of the Year award in 2014.

(Photographer’s Note: the last image of the Giraffe showing my daughter with the wrong limb difference is intentional for creative purposes and continuity of light and narrative. This image was awarded a Gold at the prestigious NZIPP Epson Iris Awards this year.)
