November is National Adoption Month in the U.S., and photographer Rob Woodcox is helping foster kids act out their dreams in real life. A former foster kid himself, Woodcox volunteers at the Royal Family Kids Camp for children of similar backgrounds. Through his photography, he celebrates their imaginations and facilitates wonder so they can build greater confidence.

"I felt [it] would help them imagine other dreams, rather than forcing them relive their fears, and would be more powerful in helping them overcome their situations," he tells Mashable.
