WE only have two done in 14 years. I should do another one. I want to do it myself outdoors. I know exactly the look that I want. I am going to try it on my own first.<BR/>Having said all that, I do love your family portraits!<BR/>Gorgeous family!SabineMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02686426828860840308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-43844691556430335792008-04-23T11:54:00.000-08:002008-04-23T11:54:00.000-08:00Those are such wonderful pictures.

Not to mention the near impossibility of getting a preschooler and a toddler to sit still, let alone smile, for a photography session. But I do sign the kids up for Picture Day at daycare (I buy just one package and have them photographed together) and it's always worth it - especially since I'm not the one who has to keep them happy and still! <BR/><BR/>I have to say, though, that your family's photos have got me wanting some of my own family. Maybe when the kids are a little bit older (and my youngest can be bribed with a reward to sit & smile).Chief Family Officerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02320154821990804327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-38660258957922909882008-04-22T19:01:00.000-08:002008-04-22T19:01:00.000-08:00Me and family portraits just don't get along that ...Me and family portraits just don't get along that well... <BR/><BR/>Your family is beautiful!
