While reading a thread recently, I found that the answer was usually “No.” Here’s another question: Wouldn’t you like to have at least one formal portrait with your mother now?

One poster tells the story of how she does not have a single professional portrait of her family that includes her mother, who passed away some time ago. I don’t have any formal portraits of my mom and me before she passed away. The most recent would be about 5+ years before she passed (at my wedding), and that’s 30+ years ago.

As technology changes, things change easily, i.e., tvs, cellphones, computers, etc. A family portrait only increases in value. It does not get replaced or thrown away. Some day, your children will need a portrait of you, and unless you make it a priority to be in the portrait, there will be no photos for them to find. I have been practicing for our family portrait by making it a priority to be in front of the camera (not just behind it), because I’ve faced the fact that the portrait is not about me—this is for future generations.

    • You, too, need to be remembered by your future generations—a family portrait only increases in value, is never replaced or thrown away.

Thank you and have a wonder filled week with your family. Practice makes perfect—am I there yet? :)
