Holly Spring’s daughter was born with Hirschsprung’s Disease that affects her digestive system, and no left hand. At only 2.5 months old, Violet had to undergo an urgent serious surgery and almost died in the process. Afraid to lose her daughter and wanting to capture memories, Holly says “she really has inspired me to be a photographer.” And out of that, what magic has come.”

Holly set out to portray her daughter, 4 year-old Violet Spring in the most beautiful, innocent and whimsical fashion letting Violet’s own “character and wonder” shine through. Holly wanted to show her daughter that despite her illness and disability, she “can be anything and do anything she wants.”

A lot of love goes out from us at Upmoments to this amazing photographer mom Holly Spring and her daughter Violet. These photos are just amazing, if you’d like to see more, please visit their website.

Please share this incredible series of photographs with your friends and family.
