[quote=Anonymous]There's value in photographing relatives together, even / especially if they don't see each other often. You may value those photos later, or not. Your older relatives seem to value them, and your kids might -- I really like seeing photos of my parents as children. It's similar to a parent wanting all their adult kids around the table sometimes, even if those kids don't particularly get along. The photography issue seems separate from you feeling like your nieces and nephews are not friendly with your kids. It's not fake to smile for photos. Candids are nice but you can strike a balance between candids and a photo where you can see everyone's face smiling at the camera. Kids should learn to cooperate for a reasonable number of posed photos. If they've done that and your sister is still fussing and retaking, you can say "That's enough, kids go play!"[/quote]
