There's actually some bit of the story that goes along with it. The photo did end up turning out OK, but just getting to that was a project in-and-out-itself.

Erin has had this idea for months. I wasn't too keen on it for a couple of reasons. I didn't want to disappoint anybody, so we went full force anyways. Getting there however led to some interesting moments.

I set up a camera - a brand new Nikon D70 - on a tripod and took a series of delayed shots. Took the file to Wolf Camera for prints. Pretty easy all around.

The only hard part was getting everyone to smile. Let me just say that the dogs were the easy part.

Who knows, this might become a tradition...
