Self-Portraits
















10 portraits














These are pictures of my great grandmother and my little brother. My brother is a rambunctious and bubbly little boy that loves to pose for the camera! My grandma is 80 years old but still 20 at heart. She is the kindest person I know and has such a silly personality:)
