  • "More than you can chew." A ten month-old infant uses new teeth to bite her mother's nose in the back garden of their Victorian south London terrace home. The mum winces in pain as the child sinks her new milk teeth into her skin but they enjoy a warm summer afternoon, playfully interacting with each other in a moment of parental love and harmony. The girl wears a short-sleeved t-shirt and has plump arms of baby fat, a healthy sign of a contented infant. This is from a documentary series of pictures about the first year of the photographer's first child Ella. Accompanied by personal reflections and references from various nursery rhymes, this work describes his wife Lynda's journey from expectant to actual motherhood and for Ella - from new-born to one year-old.

  • An exhausted father lays on the family sofa, snuggled up with his infant child who also slumbers on his chest. He has been reading a yellow-covered copy of the Don de Lillo novel, Libra. In the background, the wife and mother can be seen having some sort of personal crisis while the man looks very chilled out and probably  pleased to have the chance to read, snooze and have his sleeping child to comfort. It is a scene of role-reversal as the male of the family is the one left holding the baby, a scene of a modern family as opposed to the traditional Victorian or Edwardian gender.

  • A holy nativity scene titled Christmas Crib by the artist Tomoaki Suzuki with background tourists in London's Trafalgar Square. Juxtaposed under the Angel Gabriel are a man's legs who is actually hauling himself up on to a plinth of Nelson's comumn.

  • Dragging a baby's buggy as family members go out for a walk on open snowbound countryside in North Somerset. It is Boxing Day, the day after Christmas and the traditional family walk is more of an event this year with much of Britain covered in heavy snows during a particularly nasty period of climactic freezing conditions. Rather than push, a father pulls his child's buggy through the snow accompanied by another man and a younger boy all of whose legs are in the same walking positions. The female members of the group are out of this picture and in the way that walks often play out, females and males speak with their own gender. The landscape is that of a rural hill with a grey sky filled with more snow cloud and bare wintry trees are behind, their branches bare.
