I can't understand photographing the dead body itself,
but sometimes funerals are the only times families get
together to see each other and I can understand why
some people might want photgraphs of their rarely seen
relatives. I've been to a lot of family funerals (My
gandfather had 3 of em: 1 where he died, one where he
lived all his life and one where he was buried) In
each one my mom was taking pictures (this was before I
was interested in photography very much) to chronicle
the event, but we don't have one pic of my grandpa in
the coffin and my aunts and uncles and cousins
welcomed those pictures.
