I had considered this but had no idea what the cost was like, I guess I just assumed that it would be way out of my budget having someone come to me and then the cost of photos. I actually said to mum the other day that I would be better of doing something like when I had my wedding photos done, book for a few hours and then get all of them on cd…I ended up with hundreds of wonderful pictures.

I think if I decide to have another baby that I will do this. I’ll make do with what I get and plus you may have noticed I’m a bit crazy with the digital camera taking heaps of photos of Addi so I don’t miss a thing. We will eventually be building a house in a couple of years too, which will mean that I’ll have more wall space for photos…atm I just don’t and so it would be a bit of a waste. Having said that I don’t want to miss this time in his life, but I just have to watch my budget.

I’m really disappointed after the pixi experience but I at least have something. I will keep your suggestion in mind for sure when I can afford some piccies :)

You might consider hiring a professional photographer to do a shoot with you. They charge a higher up front rate, sitting fee etc but then you are given a disc of the images – which quite often are more natural and filled with your character instead of a studio standard.

For example. I charge a sitting fee of $250. It covers my time (shooting and processing)/travel and baby sitting costs. I provide a disc with between 25-50 digital images which you can print/reproduce at your will.

Lots of photographers work like this and lots have a cheaper sitting fee! You should look around next time you’re in the market for family photos.

Pixi photos are outrageously expensive and quite often – really bad photography!
