It's great that Catherine surprised the people at Sunshine House today! I loved the interactions between her and the adorable little girl.
 
This is such important work, and it's wonderful to see Catherine drawing attention to it. The interaction with the sweet little girl was adorable.

Truly a special project and beautiful photographs. What an amazing surprise from Catherine! Also, a few words from DoC on the subject:

The harrowing atrocities of the Holocaust, which were caused by the most unthinkable evil, will forever lay heavy in our hearts. Yet it is so often through the most unimaginable adversity that the most remarkable people flourish. Despite unbelievable trauma at the start of their lives, Yvonne Bernstein and Steven Frank are two of the most life-affirming people that I have had the privilege to meet. They look back on their experiences with sadness but also with gratitude that they were some of the lucky few to make it through. Their stories will stay with me forever. Whilst I have been lucky enough to meet two of the now very few survivors I recognise not everyone in the future will be able to hear these stories first hand. It is vital that their memories are preserved and passed on to future generations, so that what they went through will never be forgotten.

One of the most moving accounts I read as a young girl was ‘The Diary of Anne Frank’ which tells a very personal reflection of life under Nazi occupation from a child’s perspective. Her sensitive and intimate interpretation of the horrors of the time was one of the underlying inspirations behind the images.

I wanted to make the portraits deeply personal to Yvonne and Steven – a celebration of family and the life that they have built since they both arrived in Britain in the 1940s. The families brought items of personal significance with them which are included in the photographs.

It was a true honour to have been asked to participate in this project and I hope in some way Yvonne and Steven’s memories will be kept alive as they pass the baton to the next generation.

The pictures are beautiful, the DOC is an accomplished photographer!
 
I always said I wished she would use her photography for more then pictures of her kids. That the skill could easily be used in her work during her behind the scenes work not visits. Glad to see them doing it.
