pretty portraits

I will say, I think this is one of the best school pics of Katie so far. They do a Fall and a Spring, and they do re-takes each time. I've never been 100% satisfied, especially for what you pay! not too bad, not tood bad...


I was not as thrilled with Anna's pic - they tried to put her in a pose she wasn't comfortable with, AND her hair was in her eyes. However, she came home from school and said, "Mom, I look so beautiful!". How could I resist that?





Now, for Bethany. I actually had an appointment at Target (because I had a coupon), but when we got there, not only was the photographer unattentive, she had her schedule all mixed up. After about 30 minutes, we got up and left. I just wanted to get it done, so we called Wal-Mart and got in a few days later. When she asked what the occasion was, I was embarrassed to say that I had not ever had her 2-year old portrait done (her b-day is Feb.). I found some adorable rose jammies (her middle name is Rose), so we decided to go with a bedtime portrait. They turned out very cute!


Take a close look at this one. There is a black dot a little more than half-way up on the left. I couldn't tell what it was until I pulled out the 10x13... it was a flying insect, and you could actually see it's wings and body in motion! So weird!
