As the holidays grow near and friends and family come together, the cameras and amateur photographers are in abundance, along with those tried and true poses.  If you’re tired of standing in front of the tree for each shot, here are some suggestions to make your photos more interesting:

·      Go outside! Sure it’s cold, but it’s also fun and authentic.  While you’re there, how about a snowball fight?

·      Head to the farm.  If you have to get a shot in front of a tree, go to the local Christmas tree farm to capture festive photos

·      Go glam. Instead of jeans and ugly sweaters, opt for shimmery gowns and suits

·      Bring in the pets.  It’s hard not to smile with Fido in the shot

·      Give props.  Use garland, tinsel, lights and antlers to show your personality

·      Act out.  Reenact a scene from your favorite holiday movie.  We recommend your BB guns not be loaded

·      Be a comic.  Use a photo editor to add thought bubbles and drawings to your pictures
