How To Take Holiday Portraits
Wednesday, December 16, 2009 at 6:41AM 
This is my third year shooting the "Griswald Holiday Family Portrait" and I have learned a lot. Let me share a few tips...
Number one: Chihuahuas make great props!
Number two: any good shot...
...will morph into a goof shot!
Number three: you will never get the shot you had planned...
Number four: The remote shutter control is your friend
(aka just keep shooting....)
And finally, number five....
... The Old Goat is a dork!
Just one of the more entertaining aspects of our holiday traditions!

Love the pictures! And you're right, dogs make great props. Glad they were there for K3!
Oh how lovely everyone looks .. and Ben what a handsome addition he is!
The Old Goat is adorable! You all are! K3 is looking great, and I need to bite on Ben;)
Fabulous pictures!!! Ben is definitely bite-able and K3 really looks great! You all look great. Now everyone knows about TOG's dorkiness.
That first photo is really good!
I just noticed...why did we all wear navy blue and black in the group shot? We are like one big blob in front of the tree!
I love the photos!!! And Ben is getting so very big! Oh, pinch those little cheeks for me!!
These are great!!! And dogs do make great props!
