4th Trimester Bodies Project began as a photo documentary and global movement in 2013. Our purpose is the promotion of body positivity and normalization/acceptance of all experiences as they relate to parenthood and postpartum through photographs and storytelling. In addition to a worldwide media support,  we have published one collective volume of works, shown at galleries around the US, from our home in Chicago, and a permanent exhibit at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Science in Brussels Belgium. We have photographed over 2,500 people to date.
