With three young kids, I have a lot of cleaning to do. I've learned that not all cleaners are created equal. Some cleaners don't seem to be any more effective than a bottle of water, while others make cleaning a lot easier. The best all-around cleaner that I've found are Flash sprays. They really do work.

The Portrait Company in Alresford, Hants, UK
I remember having family portraits done when I was about twelve. The whole family got dressed up and went in to a portrait studio. There we were forced to stand in rigid poses in front of very fake backdrops as a few group shots were taken. The results looked really stilted and, needless to say, I look awful in them.
Luckily family portraits have come a long way since then. Now that I'm a mother, we've gone in several times to The Portrait Company in Alresford, Hants (about 20 minutes from Winchester). Located in a beautiful old building, the Portrait Company specializes in modern portraits. All of their pictures are taken with a white background and are less formal. They let families play together and snap pictures from a variety of angles. This works really well with kids as they're much happier being allowed to play.
We had a great time having portraits there, and really loved the results. You come back to see your pictures and they give you a showing with the pictures up on a big screen. They're also happy to come up with custom designs and groupings if you talk to them. The whole experience and the finished portraits are really great. The only down side is that they are quite pricey, so be sure to set yourself a budget in advance. Also, they do not offer any pictures on CD, only printed and framed.
