Every year for the past few years I have photographed this family.  They are so nice and a lot of fun.  They want Christmas photos of the kids and then of the entire family…and now dog.

Tip:  Have you subjects keep their eyes closed until you’re ready to fire the flash.  It helps to reduce closed eyes in photos.  Give it a shot!  Even the dog did it.

  1. LMAO! Scott, one of the funniest photos I’ve ever taken is a 16 person wedding party all standing on a ledge with their eyes closed. I shared it with the bride who insisted on putting it in her album! Great trick to share!

    1. Now that’s a shot i’d like to see!
