Family Photography Poses and Ideas?

We are a large family, 2 adults and 5 children, and we are taking family photos. We are planning to do take the photos outdoors at a park location. I want to find some creative ideas for taking standard family photos as well as photos for our Holiday Cards.

Where can I look for poses for taking family photos? I would also like to look at some other examples. Thanks!


Think about what describes your family, or your personalities. If you are an athletic family, maybe you want to add some soccer balls or basketballs.

See if there are any other props you could use. Have fun!
