I came across this article and wanted to share. It is full of tips for taking better family / group photos. Tips include:
1. Getting everyone as close together as possible (even more so than you might think!)
2. Everyone should be touching
3. Letting them get comfy
4. Taking charge of kid expressions
5. Not worrying about having everyone looking at the camera, and more!
