Rachel contacted me and requested a "typical Texas family portrait." Although the sincerity of her desire seemed to make her laugh, she wanted me to photograph her, her husband, and their baby girl, Elara, in a field of bluebonnets.
I'm not sure if any other state has a similar, standard model for family portraits, but I'm fairly certain that every Texan has starred in at least one of these photos.
Yay, tradition. Yay, Texas.
