Most of my family members have four legs and fur…and then there’s the dogs and the kitties.
Begeebus!!–You don’t have a tattoo of the word “Slave” arcross’t your back, do you?
//Jebeejus don’t answer that. 🙄
April 21, 2011 at 9:30 pm #39449KestranaParticipantSilverStag if you get a chance could you rule on the “best friends as family” gray area? 2 of my 3 shots for next week aren’t blood relatives and I have lots and lots to go through if I have to use David.

I need a call on that too. I simply don’t have a single shot of my family that I took, if this were in June, different story. I would hate to use my cats in all three shots 🙂
April 21, 2011 at 11:19 pm #39447SilverStagParticipantI’ll go with broad definitions of family, that’s fine. There are certainly friends I have that are closer to me than my children and siblings, and I have always believed that blood does not family make.
But I’ll always believe that the best portraits tell you something about the person besides what they look like.
April 24, 2011 at 8:36 pm #39465olavfParticipantJust for the record, I’m presuming we’re looking for defined, posed portraits of either single family members or groups. Not snapshots of Uncle Willie by the pool in a speedo.
Correct?

Correct?
Well, candid portraits are OK, I’m not putting hard limits on lighting or poses. If a photo of Uncle Willie in a speedo says the essential things that need to be said about Uncle Willie, who am I to argue?
April 24, 2011 at 10:14 pm #39463olavfParticipantOkay. I think I was just assuming ‘no candids’ because I don’t think about that when I think of portraiture. Good to know 🙂
April 25, 2011 at 2:36 am #39462CuriousParticipanthelped my friend pick out her three today but don’t have my own. the expansion to friends helped because two of hers have my sister who is also her friend. i have high hopes for at least one of them.
April 25, 2011 at 3:18 am #39461U-ManParticipantJeez. Can’t we narrow this down a bit? Throw in some rules like “Family members wearing blue” or “Not smiling” or something? My head will asplode trying to select the three entries. 🙂

*Anything* to handicap you.
April 25, 2011 at 5:34 am #39459olavfParticipantNancy Kerrigan? Paging Ms Kerrigan to the white courtesy phone, please.
April 25, 2011 at 1:34 pm #39458QueenMabParticipantI assume “family members” is limited to humans? I’m in that pool of people whose closest “family” are my dogs and cats. 🙂
April 25, 2011 at 1:56 pm #39457U-ManParticipant*Anything* to handicap you.
I’ll take that as a compliment and not a sinister plot. 🙂
I might just use pics from vacation last week…
April 25, 2011 at 10:11 pm #39456CuriousParticipantwell i picked my three. two are going for the lutz voter demographic. we shall see if i succeed.
