Present for DP, should I Photoshop my DD?

9 replies

I was showing the present I got for my DP to some friends and they pointed out that everybody (including the cat and dog) show in the multi photo frame (6 photos ) but none of my DD. All photos include my DP but there aren't any of them two. His two DC are in another photo. There is one photo of the two of them (and the rest of the family) but I'm printing that one and putting it in a stand alone frame. My two options are to either replace the one with DC or Photoshop my DD.

Why can't you just take a photo of them together?

Because the present is due today. (his birthday was yesterday) and we're celebrating today

I think it would be odd to photoshop her, draws attention to it more than not doing so. Doesn't sound like a major issue if there's another photo with them both about to go up on the wall.

Yes the other photo is more of a Christmas present for all of us so to speak. I've already explained this to my DD but my friends think it's a very big deal.

I think your DD should be included. It's really important for children in blended families to feel equally included.

I agree that ideally they should all feel included, but what's the solution in this case? I think the Photoshop option does seem like it would draw attention to it.

Do you have a photo with all the children in it, even if it doesn't have your DP in it too?

Fressia123 · 06/11/2020 13:35

No, not all of them. We simply don't take that many photos.

I wouldn’t do that. It wouldn’t feel like a proper photo.
