Family Portraits

I struggle to get a good portrait of my hubby, as although he is willing to pose, he tends to slump down the sofa and watches TV with a glazed look. This portrait is from a low angle and it is rather unflattering. However, he tells me he can see his various brothers and nephews in the picture. I should really indicate the pillow he is propped up on as it looks strange otherwise.

I also managed to get my mother in law to agree to pose for me. Unfortunately I used a white ground, which is a big no-no with pastels so it looks quite washed out. She thinks it quite flattering as the wrinkles are less obvious than in reality.
