How do the pros do it?

I often browse through professional photography blogs and find groups of young children, perfectly posed, smiling and all looking at the camera.  And I wonder how they do it.  One of our neighbors is moving this week and she wanted to get a picture of all of the babies on our street before they leave.  We included Samuel in a few as well.  Anyway, here’s how our attempt at a group photo turned out…

Molly was cooperative!

I snapped this one after everyone else left.  It turned out pretty good except that Molly is too blown out.  That’s the photographer’s fault though.

At least we’ll always remember what it was like to have little ones!
