I received a FREE 8X10 photo coupon in the mail from Picture People.
I decided to take a trip to the mall to get my son's 3rd birthday photos taken.
Why were all the photos super cute and they make it so hard to just walk out of the studio with just the FREE photo?
I couldn't make up my mind. I asked if they could email the photos to me, I have to go home and study each photo because ONE just wouldn't do it for me.
Needless to say, I took my free 8X10 but, could NOT resist ordering the photo sheet. Why in the world does 10 wallets cost $16.00. And why in the world did I buy them? Please don't bother answering that. I know the answer. Because they're crazy and because I'm crazy for buying them.
My goodness, a sucker is born everyday. I'm one of them.
Anyway, I can't wait to see the photos on email, you know so I can order more and then shake my head even harder. HaHa.
I think I'm going to stick to taking my own photos in our backyard. They're so much cheaper and there's no hidden sitting fees either!
Question: Are you guilty of paying big $$ for professional photos? Where do you usually go for your family portraits?
