Sally later on in her life took many pictures of her immediate family with 8x10 film. This caused a lot of controversy among viewers. The images of her children mimic and act out social and familial roles in their Virginia home. The children try an convey both primal and playful aspects of human behavior. She called this series, "Immediate Family." :When her kids got older she shifted her focus away from her children and focused a lot on landscape she did this with a damaged lens. That requires the artist to use her hand as a shutter, these photographs are marked by the scratches, light leaks, and shifts in focus that were part of the photographic process. Sally won many awards in her life and most of her work currently resides in many museums.
