Marina-Thanks so much!
Cate-We are lucky the mood was perfect because it was a one chance deal! Part of the family was heading home the next day.
Catherine and Sarah-Those are our favorites as well. It really captures what all of us hanging out together is like…all the time!
Heather-That is so true about taking the time to do the pictures. Everybody always complains when I make them take pictures (I am the one with the camera all the time) but they are first in line to order prints when I hand them cds!
Carolina-This hotel was certainly better decorated. I should have taken pictures of the surroundings to steal some decorating tips!
Maria-We had a blast…no tears here!
Amy-Definitely do it! We set the self timer for a large group picture, but I wish I had invested in the 20 dollar remote for the camera before we left.
Monna-Thanks so much. That is such an honor to receive this compliment from you as I admire all the photos you put up on your website! Did you post your favorite self-portrait on your site? I will have to go find it.
Dominique-Thank you so much. You can definitely tell that we have four goofy kids in the family!

Great work of making what you have to work with work for you!
These are great shots, and so much better than a lot of the more carefully staged shots you see elsewhere. The personalities really come through in these photos.

These photos are just gorgeous. What a fruitful photography session this was for your family!
I took one of my favourite self-portraits in a hotel room in Sardinia (nope – it’s not one of “those” kind of photos either) – it was a beautiful room beside the harbour and it had huge windows admitting great light. Perhaps there is also something about a posh hotel room that puts us at ease.

I love these pictures! What a great famil photos and such a great idea. I think I will need to steal that idea for our next trip.

Great photos, I love the ones with the grandparents and the kids playing best, it looks like they were having a lot of fun!

These are great, and you know I never thought of taking pictures in a hotel, but it is a great idea since most are much better decorated (sadly) than my own home.

It’s good to take some time to take some family photos like this, even if it takes a little effort – you’ll always be pleased you did afterwards

I love the goofing-off pics with the grandparents. Looks like a very fun photo session!

I love those free and spontaneous shots – they capture the essence of a family way more than posed ones do.

The candid shots are wonderful and the topic itself it good. I’ve tried doing this in hotels but never can create the right mood.
