Tim Archibald, a San Francisco-based photographer started photographing Elijah, his 5-year old autistic son, as a creative outlet while dealing with his son’s diagnosis. This portrait project titled Echolilia, like most uninhibited artistic expressions, helped to bring Tim and his son closer together.

What struck me most about these story-like photos — was not just the unique perspective of Elijah, but the delicate world in which he lives. As a viewer, I couldn’t help but attempt to envision his isolated world.
