Family Portraits

People always get together over Christmas and I was asked to come and take a few pictures of a big family gathering in a beautiful house near Henley. The house had a large south facing sun room which was perfect for getting all the generations together and creating some happy images of a very happy family.   Organising groups for pictures is not always easy but I find it makes a big difference to the images if I spend a few minutes just moving people about, moving the furniture and clearing the shot of distractions like things on the walls and floor to make the image as clean as I can.
