I don’t know the circumstances surrounding the taking of this photo but it’s a lovely shot of my great grandparents and their children, including my grandmother – Mary Margaret Ellis.
Photograph Showcase: Ellis Family
I don’t know the circumstances surrounding the taking of this photo but it’s a lovely shot of my great grandparents and their children, including my grandmother – Mary Margaret Ellis.
Sure looks like a pro took it at a gathering! It could may have very well been at a studio; no reflections on their eyeglasses.
I’m pretty sure it was a pro based on the paper it was printed on, size, and quality. My Grandma was a fan of inviting photographers to take photos at the local church so the unusual background may be a wall in a church. I wonder if it was an anniversary party or other occasion. I need to ask Aunt Claudia, she is the only one left alive, she might remember. 🙂
You know if the studio is family owned, they may still have the negatives!
