Behind the Photography

The finished product is what we frame and hang on the wall. Getting to that point is the artistry. My friend Brian Leazenby is an award-winning photographer. His work has appeared in newspapers, magazines and posters. We were lucky to get him to take our portraits at the family reunion yesterday. As it worked out, some photos were a team effort. Mommy, Daddy and Aunt Erin helped to attract all three toddlers’ attention while Uncle Stephen jumped in to make last minute adjustments. The people in the photo are Great Grandmother Kitty Edds’ Great Grandchildren. The top row is Abby and Trey Davey Edds, Rick Williams, Andrew and Levi Edds. The bottom row is Katy Williams, Benji, Taylor and Logan Edds. Evolyn Allen snapped this photo of the sausage being made.
