A Native American family of three is posing in front of a tipi for pictures being taken by a white man. The Native American woman is in a separate pose on a blanket with another blanket wrapped around her. A small dog is behind her. The Native American man holding the child seems to be the subject being currently photographed. Behind the tipi there is corral for two horses and shed within the fenced area of the corral. Near the right hand side of the tipi there is a mound covered by a blanket with a pot or basket near by. The Native American male is wearing a cowboy hat and boots with a blanket overcovering. In the far background to the left of the photo are hills and telegraph or telephone poles.
Three Native American men and four children stand around outside a tipi. They are accompanied by two horses, a cow and two calves. More livestock are visible in the backround. One of the calves appears to be nursing. Miscellaneous gear and supplies sit on the edge of the photograph, just to the left of the tipi.
A Native American man, identifiied as Chief No Shirt of the Walla Walla tribe, sits on a chestnut horse, facing right. He is wearing a cowboy or Spanish-styled hat with a decorated cloth hatband. Around his neck is a fur scarf, he wears a decorated cloth jacket, decorated cloth arm band, and holds a long cloth object decorated with fur and appliqued footprints draped over his right arm. His horse is wearing a high-cantled stock saddle, a plain curb bridle, and has a long fur draped across his shoulders. In the near background are two tipis. The tipi on the right has the inside partially visible, showing three pails, a pile of blankets, and a box.
A white man and his four children, who appear to all be girls, stand in front of a tipi on a prairie. The site has been identified as being on the Umatilla Indian Reservation. The man wears cloth work pants with suspenders, a long-sleeved cloth shirt, shoes, and a brimmed hat. A pipe is in his mouth. He is holding the hand of his smallest child, who appears to be dressed in a long-sleeved white cloth frock with smocking and a flat white hat. The two oldest daughters wear long-sleeved darker cloth dresses that come halfway down their calves, and hats with large flat brims. The fourth girl appears to be wearing an apron with a starched collar over a white cloth dress, and is not wearing a hat. All girls wear shoes or boots and socks. The three oldest girls are holding each other's hands. Behind them stands a canvas tipi supported by poles, with its entrance fastened back to show piles of bedding within. Behind the man, on the left of the photograph, is a stack of split firewood and a couple of wooden boxes. Nearby stands an object that appears to be a washer and wringer for laundry. There also seems to be a flat wooden box on the opposite side of the tipi.
