Can everyone post their professional pictures on one post and (if you don't mind) say how much it cost? I'm trying to decide where to go...

My sister just went to target for pictures and they came out SOOOOOOOOOOOO good!!! My sister has been to almost every chain place possible and that is by far her favorite now! The staff was GREAT with her son 2!

Re: Professional Pics

I don't have them scanned, but I recently had Emily's first birthday pics at Target. They cost me 100 dollars and I have so many pics. I had a coupon too. I've done Babies r us and Sears too. They came out great also, but I felt I got a lot more pictures for the money at Target. That price also included thank you cards for her first birthday party. One other note, Target took 12 poses of Emily. Babies r us takes 4 and Sears I believe took 6. I liked that they took more photos during her sitting. More of a chance to get the perfect pic.

You probably have seen these before but they were taken the other week so he was probably Jared's age when these were taken.


Sears always takes about 18 shots and then we cut it down to 8 when we decide also they do two outfits.
I'm a member of smile savers so I never pay the $14 sitting fee (I think it cost me 30 bucks for 2 years of unlimited pictures without a sitting fee no matter what Sears)
Then it's either 4.99 a sheet with a free 8x10
OR (This is what I do) The Portrait Package which is any shot I pick with 1-8x10, 2 5x7's, 4 31/2 x 5's, and 32 wallets and then I think it is 14.99 each additional sheet.

When all is said and done I end up with a package, then if the pictures are good. I get two more 5x's sheets of different poses because each Grandma has different tastes and then I keep the additional. Then I get a portrait college of his other shots all together in a 8x10 for me and my mom which is normally like 10 bucks a piece. I spend about 60 bucks and have gotten great shots. But I go to Sears in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida.

For example the first shot is the college,
The second is my package and then the other two are my 5x7's.

My advice try to be the first appointment they have more patience and I dunno about you but Jack is so happy is all smiles in the morning.

It depends on the Target. We went to the one in Levittown on Hempstead Turnpike and it was a horrible experience. The pictures were crap and the lady working there told me that she'd never worked with a young baby and it showed in the pictures.

My girlfriend always goes to Kiddie Kandids at BRU Massapequa and gets great shots every time.

Re: Professional Pics

I had these taken for Isabelle's 1st birthday that is coming up in two weeks. I had them done at BRU, but from what I read on here, I will try Target next time. I do love the way BRU does their pictures though.

Re: Professional Pics

Cute pictures everyone! Does Babies R Us let you choose certain backgrounds because I'm loving the new fall background that they have!!

That's probably a stupid question....Chat Icon
