I decided to contact the photographer and asked him to send me a photo that HE took of my brother and his family - re - (my previous post about giving my brother a 50th birthday gift - a photographer to take photos of him and his family.

The photographer sent me a photo through FB. The photo is absolutely beautiful. He said that my brother's wife has a whole bunch of other photos(on USB) and to ask her to see them.

Question.
If a family member gave you as a gift a sitting for a photograph would you show them the photo at all?
Even if the photo didn't turn out ok would you show at least one or two?

I am SO baffled as to why they wouldn't show - They are on the computer everyday...

It hurt to see the photo that I had to ask for.
I have now asked and waiting permission to see if I can COPY It for mum and have it enlarged as my mum is visually impaired.
I am happy he has done this for me.
