Models in a Pinch OR The Hazards of Being Related to an Artist







 



I thought it would be fun to post a quick look at my use of family members for models. With 6 children and 15 grandchildren, I usually have someone I can finagle to don a cloak or whatnot for photo reference. Some are more willing than others. Here are just a few of my favorites.

LOL -- those are great! Most of mine aren't so fancy (I don't have much in the way of costumes yet). I suppose, like you said, if you happen to know an artist...watch out! :)

Ha! These are great! I just asked a coworker if she would model for me, after she did her hair in a particularly medieval style one day. I hate to put people on the spot, but was so stoked when she said "yes"! I am glad your family are willing minions, I mean, subjects. ;)
