Portrait Pictures

Here are proofs from portrait session - probably taken in the late 50's, well into the Fall (when her father's furniture business went bankrupt). I like the proofs better than the picture they finally selected (the one her mother used for our engagement announcement, the one I used for her obituary and in various other places). She was still beautiful in the final picture, but remote, not the way she appears in the smiling picture below. It makes me rethink the period I've been calling the Fall.
