Description

The image depicts two images side by side, one of the whole family and the other of just the baby. The family portrait on the right involves three men standing in the back, two woman sitting, and two children. The men wear formal wear with suits and ties and stand in the doorway of the room. The two woman sit angled, one of each side of the frame in front of the men. The woman wear floor length dresses with long sleeves. The dresses are formal, but not too fancy or casual. The woman on the right wears a dark bag to contrast her light colored dress. The baby sits on the lap on the woman on the left and wears a white dress. The other child is a little older and stands while leaning against the lap of the woman on the right. The little boy wears shorts and a jacket with knee length socks. The image on the left is just a portrait of the baby. The baby sits on a chair and is up against the backdrop, but with the doors closed. The baby has her hands clasped together and sits mouth opened while staring at the camera.
