Our Family Photo

We are hoping that it gets easier to take pictures as a family as our children get older. We consider it a success if we can get out of the shoot with at least one picture that is decent! There is always at least one child always looking away or not smiling. Why is it that children find it so hard to look at the camera and smile? These ones actually turned out pretty good ~ I think it totally depends on if you have to wait an hour before your appointment because the photographers are running late. My kids aren't happy if they have to wait a long time in the waiting room and then are told smile for the camera! Say cheese! They are just ready to be done and want to leave. This time we didn't have to wait so it was fast and I do think that makes a difference with little children.
