Family Portrait

Purple Haze

“One day, back in ’81 or so, MawMaw thought it would be a good idea for us to all enjoy a few glasses of her fermented ‘friendship punch’ before heading down to the photo studio at K-Mart.”

Like A Rose

“I brought my daughter to a portrait studio but I don’t know why I agreed to the oversized rose theme.”

Shout

“Me, my husband and our 2 children – it’s our 2021 holiday photo and no matter how we tried to entertain our son, he wasn’t having it.”

Surrender

“Our perfect family photo shoot was only a little hampered by my 2 year old granddaughter who decided to throw a complete fit during the sitting. We gave up trying to get her to look good and let her ‘do her own thing.’ She ended up at the bottom of the stairs and we went on without her…so to speak.”

0 For 2

“That’s my hand trying to keep the baby from falling out of the chair while my husband looks down on our toddler to be sure she doesn’t face plant off the back of the table. By far our favorite shot from the kids first photo shoot together.”

Prime Time

“We were all wearing nice clothes for the photo but my 5 year old insisted to dress as Optimus Prime. Eh, at least he’s dressed.”

On A Pedestal

“While I was away at college my family had to take a portrait for a church directory, so they took a framed photo of me. It was the photographer’s great idea to put me on a pedestal. Also, my Dad and brother had been fighting over something trivial, my Mom was annoyed, and my youngest brother habitually refused to smile for any picture.”

Open Wide

“My family at the dentist. I’m in the chair, the dentist is my uncle, and for some reason my grandmother decided this was a great time for a family picture.”

Cutting In

“My mom had already printed and framed her prized portrait session, so when little brother unexpectedly came along, Mom improvised.”
