Grammar
[take a picture] or [have a picture taken]
I have made up the sentence below.
(1) I want to take a picture with you.
My non-native English speaking friends think it's wrong. Their revision is given below.
(2) I want to have a picture taken with you.
What I am trying to say is "You and I will be in the same picture."
Who is correct? I really appreciate your help. Thanks a lot.
