Damaris is 19 years old and 7 months pregnant with her first child. She moved to the Boston area from Puerto Rico when she was 5 years old. When I first met her, she was in her first trimester and was so excited to be experiencing her pregnancy. I can tell that she thinks I’m missing out on motherhood being 25 and in a relationship but without a child. She has worked with me to document her pregnancy in her journal and recently with audio recordings and video. I am impressed by the way she crops her photos and decorates her journal. Her work always has a distinctive Damaris style. She believes in being open and honest about her life and pregnancy and has allowed me to scan and put pages from her journal online.
