Kate Miller-Wilson, the mom who has captured the journey of her son over the years with high-functioning autism, refers to her series as “the experience of loving someone with autism”.
Often times she would also set up photos to establish her relationship with Eian. Kate Miller-Wilson has left us no reason to believe that autism is a disorder, in fact, there is also beauty in it.

In an interview with the Huffington Post, Kate said, “Focusing on only the challenges or the disability doesn’t allow us to see the beauty; similarly, focusing on only the gifts doesn’t let us see the real work done by individuals on the spectrum and their parents and caregivers. In my work, I want to form an emotional connection with viewers, to offer a glimpse of all the shades and hues that make up daily life with someone on the spectrum.”

“There’s a saying in the autism community: ‘If you’ve met one person with autism, you’ve met one person with autism,'” she told Huffington Post. “In the case of other parents and kids on the spectrum, each person will experience my images in his or her own way. No matter how that is, I hope my work resonates as genuine and just emotionally accessible.”
Her advice for other parents: “You don’t have to be a saint.”
