Photographer Ivette Ivens is on a mission to show just how ‘pure, beautiful, saintly and celestial’ breastfeeding is, and we think she’s succeeded.
Breastfeeding has become a controversial topic in recent years, with debates over where mothers should be able to breastfeed and whether Facebook should allow images of women breastfeeding to appear in newsfeeds.
And now Ivens, a Lithuanian-born photographer and breastfeeding advocate, has shot a number of stunning images which depict breastfeeding in its most beautiful and raw form.
The ethereal images feature a number of women from all over America nursing their children in fairy tale settings, including lakes, forests and lavender fields.
