Immigrant Mother Captures The Incredible Bond Between Her Children And Their Grandparents As They See Each Other Just Once A Year
Maternity, breastfeeding and family photographer Ivette Ivens, who took the media by storm with her mesmerizing breastfeeding and baby photographs, adds a new project to her collection called “Generations”.
The new project is an ode to her family and portrays the genuine bond that grandparents and grandchildren share. “Now that I live in a different continent than my parents do, my family and I get to see them only once year. My parents are older and every time I see them I can’t help myself but wonder: Will I’ll be lucky enough to see them again next year?”, says Ivens when asked about the inspiration behind her new project. The photographer adds: “I feel so blessed that my children are able to experience the everlasting love and guidance of grandparents. It’s so important and life changing, really.”
In order to preserve the happy memories, Ivette used her impressive photography skills that allowed her to create heartwarming images. “I’ve always found beauty in photos that are organic and sincere – when you look at them ten or twenty years from now, no matter how much you’ve changed or where life took you, you can relive that moment and feel exactly what you felt years ago at that exact minute. Children and elders are the perfect subject for these type of photos as they don’t pay attention to me clicking away with my camera which allows me to capture those real genuine moments”, adds Ivens.

Wow these photos are amazing. Be so thankful they have this bond. It's so priceless
At this point I move closer! How can you deprive either Grandparents or Grandchildren that bond??
Why can't they see each other more often? This is what happens when the extended family link is broken, by moving away from each other. Is the extra pay really worth it in the long run?
My cousins live in Austria and Australia and the third on the opposite side of the country. life has a tendency to separate loved ones from close to home. They were all employment for two and love for the third that took them so far away. Whatever the reason is that placed so many miles between them was not a wanted thing I'm sure. It was probably a better life that could be provided for her family.
