Post Your Best Portrait Shots!

4 Generations....Mother-in-Law (age 93), her daughter (my wife), grand-daughter and great grand-daughter.



PS Mother-in-law fell 2 1/2 weeks ago and fractured her left elbow (you can see a little of the cast extending below her sleeve)

Never, never,

Thank goodness!

Joel - That is a nice idea. It looks like the same frame, all held at the same angle, same background, and it looks like the same chair.

Thanks Pat. It is the same frame and same chair. You start out with the youngest and then print each picture and put it in the same frame for each successive shot with each person sitting in the same chair against the same background. Took us about 1 hour to complete the whole process.

Joel, I love the idea. I did something like this on a Xmas card a couple years ago and just used photoshop to put the picture in the picture. It worked out pretty well, but not as good as this shot. Great work.

Bob, good looking little guy! As for the dual catch lights I wouldn't have seen any problem keeping them in there. If you look at most of the photos around, you can see all types of catchlights. Maybe I am lazy, but I hate cloning out other catchlights so I just leave them. A note on the Apollo that I learned the hard way. Make sure it doesn't tumble because it does break really easily (personal experience here). Other than that, excellent softbox...especially if you use some form of Sean's extender arm to get the thing to tilt.

Don't do a lot of portraiture, but here's a few I took this weekend. Thankfully my son finally let me shoot him in his "cool" hat.
