Family can also be Friends - The Manhattan New School Projects

Alexia Campbell
Family=Friends
People sometimes think that family is just family.
But, actually it can be more than that. It can be
friends! In this Photo Essay, through just pictures
with words I prove that family is also friends. Think
of it this way, family also equals friends. Also, you
witness family friends.
Family Friends
These are moms. Their children
are best friends. But they’re not
family by blood, but they’re family
by friends. It sounds silly but that
is actually how it is for them.
Christine is the one sitting on the
left and Courtney is the one sitting
on the right. In this case they’re
hugging, snuggling, drinking, and
best of all smiling. That I guess
you can say sums the picture
because it brings out the beauty in
the picture. Have you ever notice
that when you look at a specific
picture and the person’s body
language seems boring and lazy
and their just not smiling? Well
when you look at Christine and
Courtney their body language and
them smiling makes the picture
seem happier and better.
Business
Partners
I’m an intern Lyndon is my
boss
We get to know each other
He tells me what to do and
What not to do.
He’s a nice, easy going boss
But oh my gosh when he
needs
To be on point he will be.
We take a picture and
Send it to his boss
Oh my gosh Lyndon
Is a nice boss.
Sisters
Sisters?
Yes.
Best friends
also,
Twins?
Yes.
Still best
friends
Family?
Yes.
Forever no
matter what.
Olivia and Amelia
Olivia and Amelia are sisters. Yes they fight but of
course they’re best friends. When I interviewed
them they did say that but at the end they said
we do love each other. I thought that this picture
was a nice one because they’re looking at each
other smiling/laughing and I thought it was cute
because, with a sister relationship its can be very
difficult and this is me speaking from experience
the younger one especially so Amelia. When we
start to get older and we want to wear makeup
and all of that the younger one usually has no
makeup so takes from the older one without
asking. We all know that, that leads to a big
catfight and it doesn’t end up well. But like Olivia
and Amelia said they do love each other no
matter what. I think that’s the best part because
you fight makeup and then you love each other
again. It doesn’t have to be always girls it can
boys too or girl and boy.
Frank and Kristina
Frank and Kristina are the parents
of Allie and Annie the twins you
just read about. They’re best
friends too and they love to play
games together. Kristina wants to
beat Frank so badly she thinks
harder and harder and even
spreads out the pieces on the
table. Frank looks down at the
game and hopes the Kristina puts
it in the place where he wants her
put it in. Kristina picks up her
piece and hopes to win.
