Subsequent images capture intimate moments of her four children—Laura, Johanna, Erik, and Dylan—alongside Rob, their stepfather, as they navigate the complexities of family life. The photographs, accompanied by handwritten dates and notes, serve as a visual diary, reflecting the passage of time and the nuances of domestic life.
