Well...I'm sighing here...the well-intentioned ideas of our loved ones can certainly bring challenges!
I suppose there are solutions, like find poses of the grandkids with similar lighting to that of the grandparents in that picture. Then, you need to get the kids in proportion to them. You will find yourself poring over all the family photo albums looking for the appropriate shot..Or, you can always shoot the kids in the correct pose and have imposters posing as the parents (assuming this is a surprise).
I'm sure you are kind hearted and want to give this a try, BUT, coming from my experiences trying to complete the impossible requests of my relatives..I say...NO WAY.
Work with good reference where the faces are fairly large and clear with good lighting. Contrary to what non-artists think, we can't just DO what they want without the proper reference. (or maybe some can out there, who am I after
all..)
Encourage something more simple and straightforward. My humble advice.
