We invited family caregivers and their care recipients to participate in a unique photo shoot with the goal of capturing their relationships and emotions. From humour and joy to stress and sadness to pride and strength. These are the human faces of caregiving. Over 8 million Canadians are family caregivers. 37,000 Canadians visit Elizz.com each month … and this number keeps growing. “My mother has some dementia that's been gradually getting a little bit worse so I basically had to quit work and she's now living with me so that I can take care of her.” “I do you spend quite a few hours caregiving and it's nice to be recognized.” “I've been fortunate enough to photograph everyone from the Queen of England to members of the Rolling Stones and today is no different I want these images to the reflective of my time spent with the subject and it's fascinating to watch just emotions unfold in front of you create an image that's lasting. “I thought it was a wonderful way of honoring caregivers and the person they look after.” “I want to raise awareness caregiver because they are quite often isolated and I feel invisible.” “As our populations aging it's going to be more and more important that we have support.” “I wanted to come out today just to give back these two for helping me for my whole life.” “It’s a chance for me to honor my parents and I want to take care of them because the way they took care of me when I was young.” “It was a very long difficult five years … and now he's all better.”
