About a month ago, I had the privilege of photographing a family who was asking me for something so unique that I had never photographed it before, nor will I probably again. It was five generations of women (sounds weird calling a baby a woman, but I wasn’t sure how else to word that!). Julia was the oldest at 95. She is the great, great grandmother of Maddie, who was just five weeks at our session.
We were very restricted as far as what we could do with backgrounds. We ended up shooting our session at Julia’s assisted living facility. The best I could find as far as a solid wall was brick! At least it was a little bit of texture!
I was so honored to take part of something so amazing. First, to have five generations all alive at the same time is unbelievable. And the fact that they were all female was even more amazing.
