Do you ever take photos just so you can use a kit you saw in the store? Ok I will admit I do/did...I just had to have this kit - You've Got A Friend (https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/sweetshoppe/product.php?productid=20002&cat=0&page=1) by MandaBean and specifically went to Disneyland to get my photos so I could use it. lol.... :p

I do it all the time. I've even made my DH do certain activities with me just for the photos. :D Like one year we dyed Easter eggs and another year we went to the pumpkin patch and carved pumpkins. We still had fun but it was mostly so I'd have photos to go with the holiday kits. So many holidays are kid-centric that I sometimes have to get creative, haha.

I buy outfits, set up fun activities and even buy special toys to match some kits. I just say the kit inspired me to do "such and such" activity :) Sounds better.

Yep. Totally. I make Megan wear her superhero clothes so I can take pics, or we do certain activities. Or I will walk in and see a photo op in process and ending...so I make them reenact it. LOL

YES, YES!!! I do this too... you would think that after 8 years, my hubby would accept this about me! I also will change my son's clothes so they match the kit that I want to do for the photo I'm taking...

Not often, but I have. I do find myself getting really irritated that my kids always wear the same clothes though, it crimps my scrapping style LOL. (no one in my family is a cooperative subject)

Keely, my kids do too, especially my youngest. She wears the same clothes almost every day! I just wash it over and over. People will think I only take pictures of her once a year or something when they see my pages LOL
Yes, I've bought clothes to match kits, and also staged pictures. LOL

I like this. I'll use this the next time my hubby teases me for setting up the pics for a kit.

I went out and bought Oreos for the kids and gave them each a small handful because I had an "idea" for a page. Lucky them.

lol..I have asked my mom before if she was always dressing me like a cowboy or something when I was a toddler. She said I owned like 2 outfits my grandparents bought, it just always happened to be what I had on when the camera came out.

I totally do this. I either plan an event that a kit will go with, buy clothes that coordinate or I make my son pose for pictures. It is all part of the sickness. I have just learned to accept it and move on. LOL

No, but I buy kits to match photos and I sometimes scrap a photo becomes scrapped mostly because it matches a kit.
