Taking Charge of Family Portraits

If I had my way, I would schedule a day entirely for our family to have our family portraits shot in a studio or on location by a professional photographer. There are so many photographers Richmond VA out there and it is just a matter of finding the right one who is a match for my taste. I really would love to have our portraits done this year, as the year is symbolic of a decade, and my parents aren’t exactly getting any younger.

Perhaps early next year I can find the time to really focus on that task, as these days are so busy I am having a hard time squeezing in more commitments without having to let other responsibilities slip, like making sure meals on our table are served on time! But, after Thanksgiving, the holiday season and our family trip to Disneyland, I will get to this, I promise!

Through the Lens of Annie Leibovitz

It seems I just came to know the woman, Annie Leibovitz, behind the famous photographs in the Rolling Stones and Vanity Fair magazine covers. I came to discover her because of an article I stumbled upon citing her financial problems – and that she risks losing her catalogue of pictures!

The pictures are valued over $50M as of writing.

Who would ever forget these?

John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s cover on Rolling Stone Magazine. Five hours after the photo shoot ended, John Lennon was shot dead.
