[OPEN] [MSP] Can’t take pictures of infants with the camera/tripod

Question

Product: The Sims 4Platform:MacWhich language are you playing the game in?  EnglishHow often does the bug occur?  Every time (100%)What is your current game version number?  1.96.397.1220What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed?  Everything except JTB, MFPS, Fitness Stuff, Toddler stuff.Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?  Place the camera and tripod from Moschino SP and try to take a picture of an infant, alone or with other sims. What happens when the bug occurs?  I can’t take a picture of an infant. The other sims come to pose for the picture, the infant never comes. The “take picture holding….” option is also greyed out. What do you expect to see?  I expect to be able to take pictures of infants with this camera, wether alone or in a group, held by another sim, just like you can with toddlers.Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods?  YesDid this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system?  Neutral/Not Sure&nbsp;
‌
I would like to be able to take pictures of my sims with their infant or just take pictures of infant sims with that camera, as you can do with toddlers. The “take picture holding…..” option should be available for infants as well.&nbsp;
I have no mods in my game, just a little cc.&nbsp;

@crinrict I have the same issue. The only way to take pics of infants is to put the camera to the inventory of a sim and take a pic like that. If the camera is on the tripod the picture can’t be taken of an infant.

Cannot take picture holding nor with an infant. Needs to be added to the menu option on tripods and cameras.

Yes, out sims can take a picture holding their cat but not their baby, it doens’t make sense.

The three sims at a time though is by design. And while I would love proper family portraits, it’s already hard enough to get three sims to pose together, I think big groups would be impossible.

Popping in to say me too and I'm very frustrated by it as I wanted to take a nice family portrait! Also is it meant to be limited to only being able to pose 3 sims at a time? Very frustrating if so! Why is it so hard to take family portraits in this game despite multiple photography studio objects and other photography system updates?

There is no CC of any kind in my game.

@dianed485  CC also counts as mods you need to remove them as well for testing.I can duplicate the holding issue though as for the photographing the toddler alone, could you describe what happens ?
