But Ben Cohen, father of twin girls, had his hands full when he tried to get his daughters to smile together on cue.

It took former England rugby star Ben Cohen three hours to recreate the popular Athena poster, due to his wriggling five-month-old daughter Isabelle who initially refused to play ball
But his wriggling, giggling, five-month-olds Isabelle and Harriett refused to play ball.
It took three hours to come up with the final shot of him holding Isabelle, who decided to co-operate for just long enough.
Cohen is the face of the Problem Shared campaign, which supports first-time fathers.

The iconic Athena poster of male model Adam Perry adorned five million walls and was one of the best-known images of the 1980s
Perry made the most of his fame. He claims to have had 3,000 sexual partners.
He was paid only £150 for the shoot in 1986. He is now a property developer after tiring of modelling.
The baby in the picture, Stelios Havatzias, is now a strapping 21-year-old.
