This is an auction for a family photo once per year of my family for 15 years. What makes it so special and why 15 years?
My wife and I are great parents (in our own opinion of course) and are really looking forward to raising our two boys. We both work and like most parents want the best for our sons. We have discussed homeschooling at length and decided it would be the best way to bring up our children also including some classes in the public system as needed.
We are very artistic individuals (she is an artist/photographer) and I am a musician that has a great day job in a field I love.
My wife has a degree and can homeschool without any issue, we have fully researched this for our state.
Why 15 years? That's about the timeframe when our youngest should graduate high school.
What do you get in this auction? One family (hopefully smiling children) photo matted and framed for 15 years starting in holiday 2009 and ending holiday 2023. You can choose size up to 16x20.
We like for my wife to be able to focus on the childrens education and to be able to afford little things like roadtrips and learning adventures our lifestyle doesn't allow right now that we have dreamed of before having children.
We are fairly private individuals so I am not posting photos of the kids on Ebay. So don't ask please.
The price is a combined price for all 15 photos and payment will need to be made in full (to keep out scammers).
This may be a long shot for someone that has the means to help out a family by buying a family photo for a year for 15 years and making a lifetime with our children priceless.
Any questions can be referred to familyphotoauction@gmail.com which is a Q&A account I setup for this auction.
Thanks for looking.

For the legal sale side of things. All payments are final, this is a final sale for the goods mentioned. One (1) family portrait before the holidays for 15 years. I am sure a certified check is probably required for the amount of the sale. So of course no paypal etc. No refunds.
Price per photo is $46,450 paid in a lump sum up front $696,750.00. After taxes this should provide almost exactly what my wife and I figured out it would take to keep her focused on the kids for the 15 year period and providing their education without worring about extraneous costs.
This would be the world to us, and possibly a drop in the pot for the right individual.
