I had to have the first photo too. I was told that when they took it as well. It was a terrible shot and after they took that they started getting more flattering poses.]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 20:32:33 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233519&title=baby-portraits#233519 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : I havent picked up my Pixi-photos...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233498&title=baby-portraits#233498 Author: Skyflame

I havent picked up my Pixi-photos yet (get them Sunday) but I was told that we had to have the first picture they took too, which is a bummer as he wasn't smiling until the end ]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 20:12:22 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233498&title=baby-portraits#233498 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : Mikaela wrote:The trouble with...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233430&title=baby-portraits#233430 Author: mummy_becks

Thats not right, you can choose which one you want as your free one. The place that says that is totally wrong (my friend is the manager at PP in Palmy) and you can tell them that you will choose which one you want.. Ring Pixiphotos (there is an 0800 number) and ask them to send out the vouchers. I lost mine when I had Andrew and got an other set sent to me - then I ended up finding them so I had 2 sets.

When I got Daniels free PixiFoto thinger done I was able to choose from all his photos which was to be the free one, they didn't care if it was the first or last one..

Otherwise, do you have a good camera or know someone who has a good camera? It's not too difficult to take awesome ones yourself, you just need a nice background colour and make sure that you have enough light on him]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 16:20:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233391&title=baby-portraits#233391 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : How bout doing your own?

How bout doing your own? All you need to do it put a white sheet over the couch (i put her tri pilloy under it, so she sits good) and then take b&w, septia and colour pictures of her and they look awesum.. you could put a santa hat, reindeer ears etc on him..]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 16:04:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233384&title=baby-portraits#233384 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : In the Warehouse at Westfield...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233281&title=baby-portraits#233281 Author: susieq

The trouble with PixiFoto (besides that I didn't get a voucher in my bounty pack - ripped off!) is that the free picture is the first one taken, so it's often not the best. That's partly why I'd rather go somewhere else, if anyone can recommend a good (and not ridiculously expensive) family portrait place. Oh, and I'm in Auckland.]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 09:58:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233255&title=baby-portraits#233255 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : Bombshell wrote:or use one...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233241&title=baby-portraits#233241 Author: peanut butter

Did they turn out alright? I got preggy ones done and the "free" one was awful yet one of the others was really nice. I bought a small version thinking I could scan it and blow it up. Do they come out ok?]]> Mon, 22 Oct 2007 09:04:27 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233241&title=baby-portraits#233241 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : or use one of those vouchers they...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233195&title=baby-portraits#233195 Author: Bombshell

Why don't you go to Pixifoto for the free one. There will have been a voucher in your bounty pack. It is the first photo they take and we got Sam in a santa sack with reindeer antlers on a headband. It is adorable and for an extra $20-30 they will print them onto Xmas cards for you as well.]]> Sun, 21 Oct 2007 22:49:46 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233182&title=baby-portraits#233182 <![CDATA[Baby portraits? : Whereabouts in NZ are you? ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233089&title=baby-portraits#233089 Author: busymum

I want to get some professional shots taken of Alex so that we can give framed photos to his grandparents for Christmas this year.

Can anyone recommend a good place to go for having him photographed? I had thought of PixiFoto but their print prices are so expensive, especially if you don't want to get a collection ]]> Sun, 21 Oct 2007 21:26:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11684&PID=233084&title=baby-portraits#233084
