Our adoption lawyer emailed and asked us for a current family picture for the court/judge. So tonight we set the camera on self-timer and sat across from it.
I love them! 4,5,7, and 8 are my favorites! 4 would be my favorite because you're all so close and loving and Olivia looks darling, but Bradshaw is covering most of his face :( I would send 5. Bradshaw is still covered a little, and Olivia looks a little distant but I love it all together and you and Dustinn look awesome! The earlier ones don't look happy enough for me.
Ooh, I just noticed, though that maybe you should crop off the bottom of number 5! :) You could center it too.
Erika: I think it's just to give the judge an idea of who we are--like to put a face with our home study & all the other info. provided for finalization. I can't imagine a judge saying, "I don't like this picture...and turning us down."
Wow. I can't believe 14 people commented before I did! I feel like a failure... #1- looks like you're posing for vogue.. you look exotically beautiful, but I'm not sure its what you want. 3 bradshaw looks adorable I prefer to see your faces. 4 I LOVE this one. I like how it's not centered I like how everyone has personality and is semi making contact with the camera 5 seems to be better of you two than the kids. 6 looks candid 7 seems distracted but cute 8 is good.. 9 is fun
overall I would choose 8 or 4. In some of the pictures we lose you and olivia because of your lighter outfits/the flash... so I'd watch for that.
all in all- I think I have over analyzed this. hopefully it helps? love you all!

Oh, they are so cute! It would depend on what it is for. Why would they need it? I love 3-5. But #1 would work if they wanted to see everyone's faces.
ReplyDelete3 or 4 are my favorites. :) Haha! I can never narrow pics down to just ONE.
My top are: 1, 3, and 8.
ReplyDelete1- because you can see everyone
3- because you can see all the love you have for your kids :)
8- because Val looks beautiful (I guess Dustinn does too. Baha.)Ya'll just look like a happy family.
I like 5 and 8
ReplyDeleteI would pick #8. So cute.
ReplyDeleteall of them are super cute, but #1 is most centered :)

Holy cannoli Gen I just noticed that...uh...I had no idea I was doing that. How embarassing!
ReplyDeleteErika, I take it back...there is something I could do in a picture that could affect the judges decision. Yikes!
