Is the photography worth buying Moschino?

I haven't played the photography career, but I bought Moshino for the photography aspect and I wasn't massively impressed. There are only a few select poses, my game has completely frozen a couple of times when I've been taking photos using the tripod (to do group photos) so it's quite buggy, and when I try and take group photos it seems to take forever for all my sims to stop what they're doing to go over to the camera - sometimes they get there eventually, after doing 3 other things first, sometimes they just delete my request completely and do what they like, and sometimes you have all of the different sims doing a combination of the above, by which time the sun's gone down :s So I don't take them anymore! I do like the digital photo frames, but you can't store different photos on different frames - they all just go in one big generic 'photo inventory' across all of the frames, which I was quite disappointed by.

I do love the build items that came with that pack tho, and I hope once they've sorted the bugs out it'll be a bit better.

I was excited about the aspect of capturing family portraits and framing but was really disappointed by the fact that you can't take photographs of more than 3 people at a time. Isn't the average household 4 people? Actually it should an option to take a picture of 4 people plus one pet.

I don't have it yet and I'm wondering if it's still worth it. The furniture is nice..

I love the pack but kinda agree with this. I was able to do it by having 3 x's on the ground for 3 sims to pose and then telling the others in the family to "go here" but they wouldn't perform the correct poses of course.

Okay, I bought it for the photography... and the build buy. I did happen to have a sim that I wanted to go the fashion photographer route with at the time. If I hadn't, I probably wouldn't have bought it just for the photography off sale.

I really enjoy it. I love experimenting with it and trying different things. Right now I am loving trying to recreate old family photos. Here's a recreation I did of my great grandparents wedding photo ca. 1909.

That is INCREDIBLY well done!

Thank you @CaptainElsa :)

If you like photography, which I do, it's worth it. I wanted to have a sim build a career and then have a gallery as a photographer. Being able to pose sims is very helpful, and having tasks to do with the career helps with the immersion, at least for me. It builds friendship quickly, too. But if all you want is to have better pictures to hang on the family wall, I would just try to catch photographs of your family members in pairs and small groups by snapping a photo from the regular system.

I'm considering getting this pack if it becomes 50% off. Mostly interested in the photography. How much better is it compared to GTW? For example the better pocket cameras in GTW can zoom and take big pictures, is the improvement worth it? Is it complicated to get the sims to pose? Does it still cause the game to crash?
