Dave Engledow - World's Best Father

When his daughter Alice Bee was born in 2010, photographer Dave Engledow knew that he wanted to document her life creatively and put together a collection of photos that she would treasure as an adult.  He wanted to portray the absent-minded new father, dazed, sleep-deprived and clueless - a parody of the father he hopes he'll never become.
Each photo has Engledow humorously holding a “World’s Best Father” coffee mug.
Dave is also raising money on Kickstarter to fund the creation of his World’s Best Father 2013 calendar and offers great backer rewards for those who help out.
His wife, Jen, helps in creating most of the images, ensuring that Alice Bee is always safe and happy.
