Conversations with Teen Mums

Oshyn, Kahu and Michaela are three young mums from Auckland who fell pregnant at high school. Conversations with Teen Mums follows the women in three seperate half-hour documentaries, as they raise their children whilst still growing up themselves. The women share many similiar circumstances and sentiments, especially around their drive for education. Oshyn aspires to be a police officer, whilst Kahu and Michaela are working towards their University Entrance. The documentaries are part of a photography and interview series, which profiles 16 young mothers in New Zealand.
