My Husband and I got stopped at our local Walmart ...

My Husband and I got stopped at our local Walmart by a Sales Rep. for Portraits International. I was completely uninterested at first. But she told me the price so I thought I would give them a try! After signing up, I was blindsided with the $5 sitting fee, but okay, only $17.95 invested for two photos, not horrible. It has been almost a year since my family has had portraits done, although, I have never used this company before.
After coming home, I googled the company to see what to expect. The reviews are scary! I was nervous.
The day of the session, we arrived about 10 minutes early. We wore our own attire. The guy handling paperwork was not the friendliest, however, he was not rude. We waited maybe 5 minutes before the photographer Kasey, came for us. Right off the bat, she was interacting with my three children, a 1 yr old, 4 yr old, and 7 yr old. She asked how we would like our two poses. We chose one of the whole family and one of the children. She posed us for the family photo, making sure everyone was photo ready. She was even awesome enough to make sure my hair was placed right, my necklace was placed right, and that my chin was posed right so it did not look like I had a double chin! I was grateful. She had my 1 yr old smiling right at the camera by acting silly. She told us we had 3 more poses that we used to take separate photos of the children then she got one of my Husband and I. In all, we had 6 poses. Of course, I knew all the extra poses would cost more. If you know you only paid for one or two, and they took five, you should not be surprised about the extra cost. They also explained the first two poses would be the promo poses. Kasey even showed me all of the photos on her camera before we left. They looked amazing on camera. They gave me a reminder for when to pick up the photos and what time that also has all of the optional packages with pricing. Although, the price is kind of high, I plan to get the full package to share with other family members. I pick up my photos on 07/27/19. I will update when I get them!
