Actually they are watercolors, not photos. They are all by the artist Steve Hanks, who has three kids and a wife that serve as subjects or inspiration for many of his paintings.
.........
His marriage to Laura and the arrival of three children provided new inspiration for the artist. Many lovingly rendered domestic scenes were added to the portfolio during those years.
Jurors, galleries and collectors have long recognized the stature of Steve Hanks’ achievements. He received the National Watercolor Society Merit Award and the National Academy of Western Art Gold Medal, in addition to consistently appearing in the list of top ten American artists compiled by U.S. Art Magazine. Art for the Parks has honored his work with many awards since 1989.
“I’ve tried to be responsible and put positive images out into the world,” says Hanks. “I hope that my work brings comfort, pleasure and insight into people’s lives.”
............
He often paints what he refers to as "moments of introspective solitude," with deep respect for the privacy of the individual lost in reflection. Each painting holds a mystery that is also a personal story about the artist as he expresses his own emotional unfolding through art.
Just as writers are urged to "write what you know," Steve Hanks paints what he lives. When his children were born his work was filled the profound intimacy between infants and parents, the unexpected joy of toddlers, and the wonder of youngsters finding their way in the outside world.

LOL zero chance he's not a raging lib:
Deeply affected by the emotions, shifting attitudes and music of the 1960s, the music of 60s icon Bob Dylan often accompanies Hanks as he paints in his studio today.

Steve Hanks discusses celebrating WHITE PEOPLE.
http://www.greenwichworkshop.com/movingon/pdfs/HanksBioExtended.pdf
Hanks’ work was beginning to attract attention. A gallery in Denver and one in Santa Fe displayed his art. He continued to enter area shows and win awards. Gallery owners began the process of educating the young Hanks about the realities of the marketplace. Western representational art was popular and he was encouraged to move in that direction.
Hanks did two paintings of Native Americans which sold quickly. It would have been easy for him to paint western subjects for this ready market, and no doubt profitable. He resisted the temptation.“What right did I have to paint these subjects?” he asks. The artist refused to capitalize on their stories and the tragedy of their history.
This recognition forced Hanks to seriously consider what kind of artist he wanted to become.What was wrong with celebrating his own people, his own past, his own white, middle class background?Was there not legitimacy to his own life experiences? One more factor in Hanks’ struggle to understand himself and his art was in the process of being resolved.
