Photographer Robin Schwartz has been photographing her daughter, Amelia, now thirteen, in the company of animals for over a decade. Amelia, Robin says, is a natural; however, her daughter favors certain critters over others. According to a March 2012 New York Times feature, "She says she connects with most of the animals, though admits the spark just wasn't there with a sloth."
