Talking porttraits/photographs

I looked in the VFAQ and did a search and didn't find anything on 
this, so hear goes:  

Why can people talk with portraits and not photographs?  Why not have 
a portrait done of Harry's parents (or anyone for that matter) so 
Harry can converse with them?  Obviously the previous Headmasters are 
important people, but the what about the Fat Lady and all the other 
portraits in the castle and other places?  Could Harry have portraits 
done of Sirius and hang one at the headquarters and one his dorm room 
for information about the progress of the Order?


Just an odd though after rereading the series, again.
