I Took my own family pictures....I have done it before, so I thought I would have a go at it again, although the first time, Alyda was only 3 months old and easy to incorporate into the picture....this time I found it quite a challenge with a 3 year old who wanted to help me, a 9 month old who had noone to catch his attention towrds the camera, and it had been raining so the lens got smudged...all in all, I guess they turned out OK!
