portraits: mi familia

since today is the last day for my month-o-bloggin'-portraits, i thought i'd overload you.
when at family functions, i've recently started taking photos of each individual doing the same pose (see below), usually involving some sort of useless prop. first, the people that brought me into this world:

lastly, the immediate family sharing my great grandad's hat:

tomorrow will begin a new month and a new type of blogs. yay!
love love love,

portraits: sleepyhead

this is one of my favorites. i shot this after the little girl had been playing at an outdoor children's festival all day. she was (obviously) exhausted and didn't even budge while i spoke to her mother.
