[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 609351, member: 3419"] I look back on our photos and they're not as bad as I thought they were at the time. I know what you mean about the new outfit and how they wear what they want. (In fact, that happens with-regular kids, too.) I have learned to let difficult child wear what he wants, but I also make sure that there is nothing in his wardrobe that is so bad it couldn't be seen in a photo. It may not match the theme but at least it's not outlandish. I cannot tell you how many times I bribed difficult child to get him to do photos. It sounds like you planned it well, but I always save one "carrot/reward" for afterward, because with-my difficult child, and I suspect with-yours, they will use up all the rewards and then never come through for you. I have always wanted to write a play based on a family photo, and have a freeze-frame and then one at a time, each person "comes alive" and you see the scene from their point of view. Could be funny, sad and chaotic all at once. Best of luck with-the proofs. I hope there's one you all like. [/QUOTE]
