Recently my wife and I engaged the services of portrait photographer Harvey Branman to take a series of family photographs. Here’s his website. The shoot was great fun, and Harvey had no problem controlling either our dog or our children (which made us want to bring him home with us). And we love the photos — so much so that the projected size of our order keeps growing. As a family, we are glad we did this while we had the opportunity, and judging from the photos, it pays to hire a gifted professional photographer.

On the other hand, if you choose to go with an amateur or someone who is just plain bad, you can get photos like these.
