To document our vacation in Tennessee. Because it is still on my computer hard drive. I like the poses and the emotion that everyone is feeling is clearly evident. It reminds me of a more carefree time. A time when I wasn't assigned 3 projects to do over my spring break.

My mom is the photographer of her family. It was taken casually with the intention of just documenting family moments. I look back at it nostalgically knowing we are all 4 there. She loves us very much right here. Me and my brother are not paying much attention, while Dad is being silly towards her.

On the monitor of either my or my mother's computer monitor. Most likely just me or my mom, for a couple of seconds as we go through the album. I'm not sure. It will probably be grouped with a lot of other photos of this era, and it will be remembered as a set.

The purpose was to document the birthday of girl. I don't keep it as I have just gotten it. I chose it because you can see the joy radiating off her face. It is significant because it shows the opposite of my life right now. She seems genuinely happy, while I am not at all because I feel overworked yet still have much work to do during my supposed break.

The photographer is the mother of the subject. It is taken in a clearly positive light, though still professionally done because the mother is a photographer. I look at it cheerfully because the it is such a positive photo. I assume that the photographer loves and cares for the subject. I would also assume the same for the subject towards the photographer.

Online at Flickr. Anyone in the Flickr community, as long as they feel like they should. No, because it is a random photo I picked for an assignment my freshman year of college.
