One thing I would love for Mother’s Day is for someone to take a beautiful family portrait… with me in it. I have zillions of photos of my son, and dozens of great pictures of my husband with him, but only a handful of good pictures of me. I regret not doing a professional shoot when he was a newborn, so I think it would be a nice tradition to take an annual Mother’s Day portrait to mark the passing years.
In case you missed it, here’s last week’s series on custom portraits. All reasonably priced, all reasonably approximating you.
While not technically a portrait, this embroidered collage visually bridges two destinations with pieces of string. Perfect for long-distance lovers.
You’re looking pretty tragic. And frankly, that’s the point.
(P.S. How fresh-faced and adorable are these two IRL, and how great is the studio name “Misanthrope Specialty Co.“?)
My dog Lucy has a tattoo, a gift of identification from the South Florida animal shelter we collected her from 8 years ago. She looks identical to this pup, complete with white patch on her chest and a forlorn attempt at a sneer. Life on the streets makes you tough, yo.
