Since her pregnancy and the birth of her son Parys, she has produced a body of work, using photography and digital imaging, which aims to challenge society's preconceptions about motherhood and disability. Her work and life story have attracted considerable media attention. She has been featured on many national and international television and radio programmes, and has been documented in many newspaper and magazine articles. The documentary Alison’s Baby, about her life since Parys was born, has been shown worldwide and won the Prix Italia and Prix Leonardo. "When you see him playing up at that playschool, people tut or give me dirty looks. But I'm thinking: what do you want me to do? I can't go and pick him up. He's had to learn that if I say no I mean it. That was all part of my voice control training with Parys. It was really hard, but I had to stick with it and it was a battle of wills. He's really stubborn - like his mother!"
