Family Portrait

• Most couples celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary would be pleased to have their children and grandchildren gathered together in one place. Gather the couple's children, their spouses and offspring together for a celebration. Take candid shots of the group during the celebration, and then gather everyone together to take a portrait. Take the photograph outside against an attractive background, since a large group is hard to photograph in a studio. Ask everyone to wear similar colored clothing for a cohesive picture. For instance, ask all participants to wear white, beige or black and white.
