In this series, called The Little Prince, Slovenian photographer Matej Peljhan lets a 12-year-old boy with muscular dystrophy play again. He lets him do things he wouldn’t be able to do in real life because of his muscle disorder. The boy, Luke, is walking, skating, sporting and even breakdancing. The photographer has made this kid a kid again through this wonderful series.
I’ve seen and even used this style of creating a scene by laying the person, or in my case a baby, down on the floor. It opens up all kinds of possibilities. On PforPHOTO we have seen this technique before in the series Honkey Kong.
