“Chrissy Teigen recently experienced a familiar struggle that’s all too real for parents around this time of the year: the stress of the family photo shoot. Usually taken after Thanksgiving just in time for a holiday card, parents know the frustration of putting their kids in uncomfortable clothes, listening to incessant whining and getting everyone to look ― and smile! ― at the camera all at the same time. Though the Sports Illustrated model is no stranger to the camera herself, it seems her son, Miles, was having a bit of a meltdown during the family’s picture session. “Family shoot went … right as I thought it would, actually,” Teigen tweeted on Saturday, alongside a photo of Miles looking like he was about to both cry and run away, while the cookbook author hooked her arm around him.

On my PHONE of course,” she joked. His facial expression and crossed arms are just too much! Then this happened!!!

Now I’m sitting in my chair pouting and shoving chips in my face.

My daughter cried the entire time and these were the only pics I had, so they ended up on our card. 🤷🏻♀️😂 pic.twitter.com/6UMdF0z06u— Katie Clark (@katieallenclark) December 5, 2020 Same! pic.twitter.com/gVbRosh8LN— Nicole Sheffer (@Nisheffer) December 5, 2020 My daughter and I about 10 yrs ago.
