YES, you should hire a professional, not an amateur, not a friend, and avoid self-timers on your own camera all together. Sadly, we hear all too often the regret of ‘we should have…’
I know iPhones can be great for day-to-day documenting – but they also ensure that one of you is always missing from the family document – to the detriment of your family history….and sadly, we know only too well – we can’t ‘go back’ – except

Professional photographers specialize in different fields. You can imagine that a commercial or real estate photographer may be excellent at their field – but maybe not so with families. So hire a professional FAMILY photographer. There are
at least a dozen fantastic ones in Toronto that are worth considering. I am proud to be one of them.
