ANYWHERE, ANYTIME — this is the “right” time for a woman to breastfeed her child or children. Many societies and cultures these days have taken offense to displays of breastfeeding, as something that is unnecessary to do in public.

It is universal. It should be celebrated, and not shamed. I hope this photo essay does just that.
