We often find pictures of Shiva and Parvati together with their children i.e. Ganesha and Kartikeya/Murugan.

However, we never find pictures of Vishnu and Lakshmi with their son Kamadeva. Why is it so?

Kamadeva is not son of Vishnu and Lakshmi. But yes, incarnation of Kamadeva (Pradyumna) was son of Krishna and Rukmani. correct me if I am wrong :)
