Posers

There are only a few posed, studio photographs in the archives. I love how Bro #2 looks in this one. (But then, I love all his baby pics.) Studio pictures must have been very expensive. As we got older, I'm sure it was also very challenging to have us clean, smiling and cooperative, all at the same time.

I don't think we have any studio portraits after this one (right). Bro #1 got a tripod, and a camera with a timer and that is how we took group pictures from then on. But there is a certain charm to the posed pictures. Maybe it was just the innocence of the times.
