#CanonExplorerOfLight @stephsinclairpix is taking over our Instagram today! Stay tuned to see some of her incredible work.
“I photographed my daughter, Lotus, 5, to help raise awareness about the rare genetic condition of albinism. While the sight of her porcelain skin and striking white hair are often enough to stop people in their tracks, she is a typically precocious child with a love of dance and an amazing sense of humor.
Today, June 13th, is International #Albinism Awareness Day! Albinism is a genetic condition characterized by low levels of melanin, which provides skin pigmentation. It affects 1 in 20,000 people and occurs globally, across all racial and ethnic groups, though it continues to be misunderstood in many communities. Many people with albinism are severely discriminated against, and even attacked, for their unique appearance. Many others lack adequate access to medical resources for conditions highly associated with albinism, such as low vision and skin cancer.” #InternationalAlbinismAwarenessDay #IAAD
