My brother invited my family and my sister's family over to a cabin they had rented for the weekend in Pigeon Forge, TN. We ate, drank, ate, caught up on all the latest family news, and then ate some more. Hey, we're all from Louisiana and we like to eat! And of course, I brought my camera, hoping to get some new casual portraits of some family members.This is my only brother-in-law, A.J. I waited until he was distracted in conversation with my brother to squeeze off a few snaps. (Click on photo to enlarge.) While talking to my brother, I don't think he was aware I was taking his photo. When using conversation as camouflage for your activities, you can't shoot while your subject is speaking or you'll almost always get an awkward looking mouth. I wait until he's listening, and then, click! As with most things, it's all about timing.

I sure did marry a handsome man!
Here via Katherine's cooking blog. She mentioned your photography blog which caught my interests since my two blogs are about food and photography. I'm a hack at both but learning;)
Terrific casual shot of the BIL. I really like the black and white treatment John.
I came here by way of Katherine's blog and I have to agree with her. The photo you took of her husband is incredible. Actually all your photos are fabulous.
