Remembering a heartwarming moment

This is actually a pic i have taken in a refugee or assylum center somewhere in my country. A friend of mine was asked , by a director of a refufgee center, if he could make portraits of assylum sekers together with a possesion of their country. As he wasn t doing photography, on a semi pro base ,anymore he asked it to me. The fact si they didn t have the money to pay a professional photographer so somebody had to do for free. Normally i might not post those pics like on facebook. But now application has got green light and we are a few years further away i think it is ok.
This is the pic i loved the most but they didn t choose. The mother is visually protecting the daughter so her teeth are not visible? The girl had a small default on the teeth who are growing abit outwards. This is a common default with wemen in those countries. But otherwise there is a lot to see in this photo.
Those people were first not keen on being photographed , which is understandable. But after some time being there, everything loosend up.
They became a bit more open.
In the care facility , were i work , lots of migrants have passed. They give them work for 1 year so their papers are ok .it is enriching having contact with other cultures. We hear their story which is mostly totally different from what is told in news.
