You want the best family photo right? But you’ve never tried this before and you’re worried it just might be very good.
Well, here’s an idea, try two locations. Maybe start at the beach and then head for a nearby park with trees and soft light.

A family of five walks along a beach, holding hands. The parents are on either side, with two boys and a girl in the middle. They are smiling and enjoying the sunny day. The ocean is visible in the background, along with a buoy and a person kayaking.
