Re: Should I have professional pictures taken at 6 months?

The Sears pictures are so cheap with a coupon. I say go for it!!!

Re: Should I have professional pictures taken at 6 months?

We did pictures for her first christmas (2 months), 6 months, one year and her 2nd christmas. For the first 3 professional shoots we went to Target, and the last we went to Sear's. I like doing Target because you can get a good sized package for $8.99 (printout coupons on their website!) and so it's not like you are dropping a lot of money on it.

I do have to say that when I went to Sear's, the entire experience was better. We got tons more shots, the baby was more comfortable because she was on the floor and the lights were on not on some platform in a dark room, and they only put one photographer in the room as opposed to target where they bombard you sometimes with 2-3. However, it's harder to just pick a package because the photos are so much better. I ended up spending over $250 on our Sear's photos.

So my advice, book someplace like Target, try it first. Then if you're not happy, consider Sear's or another photographer.
