When a British photographer learned that 90 percent of expectant parents in the United Kingdom would choose to terminate their unborn child if they found out they had Down syndrome, she decided it was time to make a change by creating awareness and depicting their beauty.

Nicole Louise Perkins, from Birmingham, first launched her awareness campaign called “Down Right Beautiful” in 2018, featuring 32 different people from babies to young adults with Down syndrome.
