My sister-in-law has done the impossible. The mugshot I use throughout this website was taken by her – and though I’ve been using it for a while and have looked at it more times than I would ever have cared to, I still think it’s pretty good! To date, it’s the only picture of me that doesn’t at least somewhat embarrass me. Sarah is a professional photographer in Salem, Oregon and let me tell you – the benefits of having a professional photographer in your family when you’re 3,000 miles away from them cannot possibly be overstated. Makes me feel like I’m still home whenever I get a new batch via e-mail.
Anyway, I was thrilled when Sarah offered to blog about taking better progress pictures. As she mentions in her post, progress pictures are an extremely effective tool in gauging progress, but only when done correctly. Check out her site for the full write-up here:
