To mark the launch of National Adoption Week, 16-22 October 2023, Haringey and Adopt London North join adoption agencies around the country to share a powerful set of portraits captured by London-based royal, fashion, and portrait photographer, Philip Sinden, who was adopted himself in the 1970s.
The portraits show striking imagery of eight people adopted between 1960s and 2010s against a backdrop of their own emotive, poignant words that bring to life how adoption has shaped, and continues to shape, their lives and highlights how adoption has changed over the years.
The portraits have been released alongside a new film captured during the photoshoot and hears first-hand the different experiences of the adopted people featured.
