And to continue my list of why you need your family photographed by a professional photographer...

Reason #4 - when was the last time you were all in a photo together?

And I'm not talking about the last time you were at a family wedding and Uncle Steve grabbed your camera and took a quick snapshot of all of you outside the church. I'm talking about a really great family photograph that really shows who you are as a family - how you all laugh together or the way you all cuddle in together.

Of course because I believe family portraits are so important, I have my family photographed by a professional photographer regularly. But I challenged myself to go through my computer and find the last non-professional photograph we were all in together. And I couldn't find one. Not one (mental note: hand over my camera more often). If you took that challenge how would you do?
