A Compass Rose

Here we are with Grandma Sue, Grandpa Bob, and Nonna. Grandpa Chuckles is on TDY to Columbia, so we will have to come back with him to get a portrait done. As for the colour choices in this shot, it was not planned (believe it or not). The three women and Ronan all chose the same blue tones by accident and the orange that bob is wearing really compliments the blue, helping us not all look like smurfs. The photographer wanted to know if we wanted a different colour background, but really white is the best option. It puts the focus directly on the people in the photograph. When Ryan and I got our engagement shots done here, they used a neon yellow for one of the shots. If the colour choice wasn't completly awful, she had us get into some really akqward pose. So after all the work of getting the shot right, we didn't order the photo because the bright yellow was just too obnoxious. It really didn't go with the dark and dramatic colour of our clothing choices. (You can see a little shot of the one we did choose, in a photo frame, in the picture a few posts below.)
