Getting better photos

Hi Melinda,

Perhaps there is a way to take the man's photo without him knowing that it will be used for a portrait. Maybe you could come up with another reason for him to pose for a photo, even if the photo is taken by someone other than you, a member of his family perhaps, or someone in his office.

My son recently did a family tree project at school, we took pictures of all his relatives. Or have the man pose with someone under some pretext.

It sounds like the reference material you have been provided with is unacceptable, or at the very least will make this a difficult job, so you need to concentrate on getting a better photo.

Good luck!
Joan
