How to: Perfect family photos

Planning a family photo shoot for your Christmas cards?
 Wondering how to get your children to pose like little gap kids models?
Step one: Bribe them.
"Grant, I will give you five ice cream cones for five more minutes"
 Step Two: Threaten them: "Grant, Look at the Camera now or Santa isn't coming"
Step three: Chase them down and force them to participate! Oh yes, we WILL get an enviable picture!

P.S. Remember you only need one good one. Right?

those are great. they are better than a posed picture any day. plus, the first one is actually pretty good. and your outfits are rocking. and the colors really pop.

i'll be laughing for a while about the "enviable picture" - cause isn't that what we're all after?!? hahahahaha!

That's about how our family photo taking went! :) You would think they would catch on that if they cooperate they'll be done in a flash instead of dragging the ordeal out... And you guys look great!!
