May I add that many of us avoid being in pictures because we struggle with our appearance - worry about bad angles, extra weight, no makeup on, etc. Get in the picture anyway.

I recently went to another family's party & they had a photo collage. In many photos, my friend (the mom of the family in question) looked great in all of them! Despite being freshly awakened in one, a little heavy (with a new baby) in another, no makeup in some. But she looked so happy in all of them, because she was with the family that she loves.

It really inspired me to let go of some of the vanity & enjoy special & everyday occasions a little more, without worrying about how I'll look in the photos. I also try to, after a few snaps, to get whoever is taking the pics to put down the camera & come join the fun!
