Dilemma #1: S - he's nearly 7, and that means the most awkard, bizarre smiles when left to his own devices because he's trying too hard.
Dilemma #2: X - he has what my husband affectionately refers to as "shiny object syndrome," and surely would have found something more exciting to look at in the 10 seconds between me telling him to look at the camera and the shutter actually going off.
Dilemma #3: R - she's defiant and will purposely not look at the camera because that's what she was asked to do.
Dilemma #4: Z - what can I say? He's 9 months old, and in love with his Mommy. He would have been looking at me, and not the camera for sure.
So, what to do?
I took photos of two members of the family at a time and then pieced them together in photoshop to create the illusion that my children are miracles with a camera timer.

My husband and I, however, are miracles with a camera timer. ;)
And one last one that I thought was cute. My husband captured me trying to get S to give us a genuine smile.
