You say people actually dress themselves alike for these photos? Interesting.<br /><br />Having actually done portrait photography on the past, my one bit of advice--apparel choices aside--is: parents listen to your kids. If one says he has a funky tummy, don't make him go through the sitting, ok?

I felt bad for them, until I realized that one day, I will do the same thing to my children. Bwahahahaha!<br /><br />I do have to say, though, I much preferred the company of the family in white/khaki to the Liannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05723693626200529764noreply@blogger.com
