Trying to get photographs of the children

Photographs are not my strong point, but I'm trying to get some done of the children and send them to a relative. I'm sure others are confused, angry and frustrated as to why I'm not giving them their photographs. However, I don't have any to give out! This is received with disbelief - surely I must be lying or exaggerating. I've never taken my younger son to a professional photographer, and I've only taken my elder son, once, when he was five months old. I'm also the woman who did not have a photographer at my wedding. So there you go; what for others is an absolute given and as much of a must as food and shelter - for me is difficult and a struggle.
