Wow. That's pretty creepy. It's as though the dead person is somehow trapped inside the headstone. Like your sweet old grandma got exiled to the Phantom Zone from Superman I.
I wouldn't trust my family to choose the right photo either. This isn't your average, everyday passport photo bullshit. They only last ten years. Gravestone photos last until the end of the world.
And however you want to look at it, that's quite a long time to be lying underneath a photo of yourself taken at Christmas in 1990 during your 'Chubby Goth' years.

I noticed this when I was in Florence. They LOVE photos of dead people over there...it seems to go without saying. I think Ive spotted a niche in the photography market for pre death photos that youre happy with.
