I had mentioned just over a week ago that the entire Chow Family got together to take our first family portrait in over 27 years.

Our photographer and friend, Rob Vreeland, of Murphy Dog Studios sent us the first sample of the full family shot.


that's a whole lotta Chow...

I think it's beautiful! I love the composition. I love the setting. I love that he managed to get all 18 of us to look at the camera and smile all at the same time!

We're hoping to photoshop in my cousin, Bruce, who was away on business, and was unable to make it. It'll be tough to get it "just right", but we'll certainly try.

We're all very excited to see what the rest of the photos look like!

Thanks, Rob. Great job!

update

I don't have a digital scan of the last family portrait that we took way back in 1982, but I did manage to find this photo that we took of the family in 1981. My cousin, Kenneth, (who is now 28, and a doctor) was just a baby, and my cousin, Cheri, (who is now 25!) wasn't born yet.
