If these photos of Ben Nunery and his daughter Olivia don't get people teary-eyed, or outright balling, then they will officially be labeled the Scrooges and Grinches of the Christmas season. A poignant and even heartbreaking photo series, it involves reenacting Ben Nunery's wedding photos. The only major difference is that his young daughter has taken the place of his late wife.
Married in 2009, Ben Nunery and his wife Ali closed the deal on their house just after the ceremony and so took pictures in the still empty space as a promise of a bright future. She passed away two years later from lung cancer. Finally moving on, Ben Nunery has sold the house. To bring it full circle, his sister Melanie, who took the original photographs, shot the same photos in a similarly empty house as a tribute.
