I love this photograph of my great grandmother taking a photograph.
Eventually, she and my great grandfather owned a photography studio. They took lots and lots of photos. I am the current steward of many of those photos. I’m grateful for my great grandparents chosen occupation. They captured plenty of family magic with their cameras.
What a great picture. It’s not often that one gets a photograph of the family photographer.
Isn’t that the truth! There are actually a couple over the years with her and her camera. One of my favorites is a big 11 x 17 I have in my office. She hand colored it with oil paints. I love it!
