Child-raising in focus

Photographer Zhang Yingnan puts the joys and difficulties of parenthood in the frame.

Last year on Jan 1, Zhang Yingnan became a father to a boy. Since then, he has dedicated his camera lens to his son and his wife Tao Lanying. Over the course of a year, he has captured the changes and difficulties his wife faced bringing up a new family member. Each picture is accompanied by words written by the father. The group of pictures not only conveys a man's remarkable love for his family but also offers a glimpse into the lives of parents, born after 1980.
