family portraits

i love taking pictures. i almost always have my camera with me when i go out with my friends. i just love capturing the moment and getting to look back at it later on. my roommate Kristen and i decided that it would be fun to start taking "family portraits" when we go out, each time with a different "family." we want to get people to pose in the goofy manner you find in traditional studio family portraits. we tried to take a couple last night, but i don't think other people really understood what we were trying to do.

this is one from a couple nights ago:

 and this is one from a hike we went on a couple weekends ago:
