Willard Family Tree


This was an assignment.  My first one, in fact, as a photographer.  But it was an assignment from my mother, not a publisher.  Apparently, in my mother's line of ancestors there are the Willards.  The same family for whom this hotel is named.  My father, who is a bit of a genealogy nut, is in the process of confirming the family lore.  Either way, this is a funky building to shoot because it looks like it is three different buildings built really close together.  It wasn't until I actually walked around it looking for the best angle that I learned there is no good angle to shoot it and capture all of its architectural complexity.

Taken with a Canon Rebel XS with the stock lens, this photo is good enough for my mother, so it's good enough for all of you who view this blog (which consists of my mother and probably no one else).
