Boycotting Sears Portrait Studio!

We went to take an anual summer photo of the kids, the ONLY time of year I do this. Now I remember why. lol. They really didn't do so great but oh well. I did order one but am *really* mad at the associates. When I told them I didn't like any and would like to re-do the session at another time (knowing the kids were too antsy at that point) they demanded that I had to pay a fee for them doing the photos or buy a photo. Excuse me, I have a smile saver and certainly wasn't giving them money for a crappy job! I felt forced and did buy the cheapest one I could do and then left. Ugh.

Here is what we bought. It's not awful but there's SO much white space around them! I wanted it cropped closer but was told that would cost MORE money. What??? She also argued that it's not good to cut out their feet... (rolls eyes)... I know my kids have feet. Duh! Stupid girl. I'm trying to get that order canceled and go in again, especially after the way I was treated. Grr...

They did get some cute ones of the kids solo but I wasn't THERE for that.

Just crop it for me!!!


I call this one my "voodoo baby"... Camden looks scary!

This one makes Alex look a little goofy... I was so annoyed that he wasn't smiling (his fault obviously).


This is a cute one of her but we're missing a piece of her head...

Wow, the first one does have a lot of white to it! Hmmm, now I'm nervous because I'm taking Asia to Sears to get her first year picture taken. They did a good job on our Christmas one so we'll see. I can't believe they're made you pay to redo the pictures. I'll go prepared to fight the battle. :> The other ones look very cute though!

I HATE doing family pictures. They are SO hard to get right. Sorry you didn't have that great of a shoot, but the kids are still cute. Hey, while you were in UT, we were in CA. We probably passed eachother. Sorry we missed you. Glad you're well. Cheers!

Thats crazy. Sorry that Sears did that. Your family is sure cute though. I think your little girl looks so much like you.
