Photos

Sweater Party

“The photographer of our mother-daughter portrait session posed my younger sister, on the right, as a late arrival to the matchy-matchy sweater party. And my ever-youthful mother was wise to wear a different color to signify that she was the mom and not a sibling.”

Let It Flow

“This is a photo of me and my mom taking an apparently too long of a walk around the neighborhood. It’s a good thing there’s a photo to remember the moment.”

Lifting With Lasers

“My senior picture. When my friends asked me what the deal was, I said, ‘I liked to lift weights in high school, and my dad was a photographer. That’s all I got, I honestly have no memory of doing it.'”

Wear & Stare

“Glamour shots at Zellers in the mid nineties. My sister kept blinking when they took the photo so they told her to keep her eyes open.”

Here’s Looking At You, Kid

“This photo was one pose in a series of shots my family had taken in about 1981. The photographer told the rest of my family to just stare at me while I tried to look dignified.”
