FAMILY PHOTOS
Taking a good family photo is not as easy as it sounds. There is always someone looking away from the camera or
someone who is not smiling or looking nervous. If you want your photo to come out well, the first thing to think about
is where you take the picture. (1)
Family photos are best when you can get more than one generation and as many different relatives as possible into
one picture, but this isn’t easy to arrange. If you get a lot of different people together, you can see who is similar,
(2) . We usually look like our relatives thanks to our genes, but sometimes a cousin or a nephew can
look very different. Also, in family photos you will often see if people are feeling happy and relaxed.
The other common problem with family photos is that someone always interrupts you when you’re trying to organise
it. (3) . The best way is to tell everybody to stand together, and then you decide who is going to be
where. If everybody starts discussing it, you will never get a good photo. Another useful idea is to suggest that any
young children lie down or sit at the front. This will stop them from running around.
