At a glance, this would seem to be an older woman with her four adult children, but without identification it’s hard to be sure. Perhaps this group includes in-laws or fiances? Perhaps she has (or had) other children who aren’t present? Perhaps these people are no relation at all? I have another picture or two of the older woman alone, and one with her on a couch reading with a younger woman (I can’t tell if it’s one of the woman here). But this is my favorite. I like all the people and how they are relating to each other in their poses. I like the clarity of detail of their clothing and their surroundings (I believe this is a house, rather than a studio). And I like the fact that they all appear content.

I love the expressions on their faces, especially the women. The one on the upper left looks like she is going to bust into a laugh. It made me laugh with her.
Yes, they look like it’s an effort to be serious.
