Family

This past June I photographed my family at a local waterfall in Joplin, Missouri, for Mother's Day.

I enjoyed creating this collage with the photos from the shoot.

A pose for this many people was difficult at first. I checked it in the camera several times but there is still an opportunity for a better look.

One of the main components of the photograph is lighting. If I could do it over, I would've found a better place to sit so our eyes weren't squinting. It was hard to tell the sun was too harsh when checking the photos through the LCD screen.

Overall, though, I am extremely satisfied with the portraits!
