What makes a family photo… good? Or album-worthy? Or accurate?
Is it where everyone is looking at the camera with a smile, posed in from of the house with a car in the driveway?
Does the perfect photo sequence capture all the points of interest on a trip, looming large behind the family all in a line?
I’m not sure what I think but its possible to discern a consensus, what is perceived to be the perfect photo, the album worthy. Maybe the perfect photo is haphazard and crooked, or perfect and pristine. What the family feels is representational of their family may be more revealing about their true nature than the photo themselves.
I don’t think I have any family photos (someone’s always missing) so your blog will be a guide of sorts, haha.
