Abstract:
Creating remembrance images has been a long-standing tradition within the field of photography for as long as the medium has existed, specifically, neonatal images can be traced as far back as 1919. Today this kind of photography is still polarising and controversial with the general public, institutions, families and photographers for numerous reasons.
