March 17, 2012 – A year of portraits – Jean Hirsch

03.17.12 Jean Hirsch

Today’s portrait is of my Aunt Jean. I spent the weekend visiting her in Piqua, Ohio where we worked on identifying a lot of people in old photos from my dad’s side of the family, of which she is the last surviving sibling of 15 brothers and sisters. We also spent several hours of videoing her talking about what it was like to grow up on a farm with so many brothers and sisters for a program I’m putting together for an upcoming family reunion.

Post Processing
All post processing was done with Photoshop CS5 where it was cropped slightly and burned down around the edges slightly to tone down what I felt was a distracting background.
