Unfortunately there are not 3 generations. I'm the guy in the middle but the man who's holding the frame is not my dad, he's my brother.
I lost my grandfather in 1998 and my father 10 years later. It's still painful to think of that and in some way I hoped this image didn't do well.
My brother was born in '58 and I was born in '75. We are 5 siblings - 3 brothers and 2 sisters.
I never want to shoot cliche photos, but I thought this was a nice try to do. Not an easy one: 11am: I took a photo of my son, then edited and went out to print it. I had a problem and the file didn't work for printing (a renaming issue), so I had to go back there at 4 pm.
After printing I bought the frame, went back home and took a photo of myself holding the frame with my son's pic inside.
At 6.30 pm. I was printing my photo. At 9pm. my brother was ready for the last session.
I used the same light set up for the three images.

well executed.
i had trouble with my setup trying to do this regarding glass in the frame and lighting; as well as the fact my studio is currently tore down due to some home renos.
I hope to see this finish well since i know mine won't and i think it's a fantastic idea.
