Christmas card family photo session

We decided to ask my brother to take our family pictures for the Christmas card this year. To make it easier for everyone (especially the kids), we selected a nearby park to do it. I must say that it was THE most challenging session we've ever done for our family Christmas card. It was difficult to have the kids look at the camera (at the right moment), AND asking them to smile. Plus, Wes had a meltdown a few times, which made it even more difficult. Really...my kids are THE most difficult kids to take pictures of! Thank goodness, we were able to get a few decent shots. Let's just say that my Photoshop skills also came in very handy ;) Enjoy the pictures below...

Behind the scenes pictures:

The kids were not looking (50%)



Funny/blank looks (25%)



Wes having a meltdown (24.5%)



SUCCESS RATE: 0.5% (Aaaghh...!!!)


A few shots I liked but didn't make it on the card:











This is the final card...
