Thank you John! The family is actually my own so they were aware of the inspiration beforehand. I had the camera on a tripod and set the timer up before jumping into the shot. Each member was given directions by my brother, a former art director for Levi's, and myself. Wardrobe and props were selected about an hour before we began the session, the women wore black & white/animal prints and the men wore shades of blue. Posing each member, giving directions, placing props and capturing the shot took about 20-25 minutes.

Major praise for the wardrobe selection and the positioning and posing of the subjects. You say 'inspired by' and I wonder if the family was in on the 'inspiration' or did they just take direction well and have some serious patience as I can only imagine it took some time to get them in to this particular setting. Well done!
