Every New Year's Day, the Starghill family gathers for a day of food, conversation and football bowl games. This time, I decided to extend my annual Christmas trip to Houston through the new year. I also decided to take a portrait of everyone who came through the door. I set up a "studio" in the backyard which consisted of an orange stool for the subject, a wooden fence as the background, and a piece of white cardboard to reflect some light (held by my assistant Nekeita: first picture, left side). Luckily for me, everyone cooperated. Shout out to Nekeita for charging me $1 per person for holding a piece of cardboard.

This is a great post! The family resemblances are strong. It's interesting to look at the aunts, uncles, and cousins and try to guess which side of the family they're on.
Mikey, Those are really great photos, I don't even have makeup on and I still look cute. It seems you captured the essence of everyone. Didn't you get one of Madea?
Nope, I sure didnt get one of her that day...I should have, but I didnt want to make her walk out in the backyard to my "studio"
