Harry Borden captures tender portraits of single fathers
Forty-eight fathers feature in Single Dad, a new photo book that aims to subvert long-held ideas around fatherhood and masculinity 10/03/2021 7:43 am
Although the number of single mums in the UK remains disproportionately higher than that of single dads, families with lone parent fathers have been rising at a faster rate over the past two decades.
Portrait photographer Harry Borden’s new book Single Dad, published by Hoxton Mini Press, sheds light on this parenting setup through intimate images of 48 fathers and their children.
The fathers in the book have all endured some form of loss or heartache, with their stories woven throughout the book to accompany the photographs. The fathers reflect on life and, often, death; how they came to have their children; and the ensuing joys and struggles of lone fatherhood.

Imitation, it is said, is the sincerest form of flattery. The Chinese are reportedly famous for making knockoffs, particularly where landmark buildings are concerned. Macau, for instance, has a lookalike of the Colosseum in Rome. The Beijing World Park has a replica of the White House. There is also a Leaning Tower of Pisa – in Shanghai.
China also boasts a replica of the city of Paris, replete with its buildings and even paintings.
The sight is simply spectacular: it looks as though the whole city of Paris has made up its mind to up sticks and move to China.

This year, perhaps by default, was something of a vintage one for home cooking. As many people were forced to spend much more time in their kitchens, they took to cooking like never before – from breads and cakes to comfort foods and elaborate dishes.
