A Mother’s Touching Portraits of Her Sons Bonding
with Animals
Elena Shumilova is mother to two young boys, Yaroslav (5) and Vanya (2). An architect by trade, the Russian artist only
took up photography in 2012, wanting to capture the precious moments a mother witnesses as her children grow up.
The family owns a farm in Adreapol, Russia, where they have many animals including dogs, cats, ducks and rabbits. The
special bond that can form between the animals and people is what she tries to capture through her photography.
Shumilova tells Daily Mail that when she graduated University she spent a lot of time sketching and painting and it is this background that has come to define her photography and
composition.
