Has anyone had these taken for a fundraiser at their school or kindy and If so are they good pictures and resonable priced etc. I just received a flyer and was thinking of going but would hate to get them done and then find out they are waaaay to expensive to purchase etc

We had them done at Maya's playcentre a couple of years ago and they were really good, from memory the prices were fairly reasonable too. We ended up buying 3 large ones and having them framed.

We're booked in for a session through West Ak Parent Centre and they have a deal going with a free sitting and 5x7 prints at $15.50, so I thought that was pretty good.

we had them done and for $10 you got a passport size photo of all the pictures taken and from there you could order bigger ones. I wasnt overly impressed with how ours came out but then the kids went a bit camera shy so that didnt help but i have seen some really nice ones.
Good one chovynz  they are basically just black and white photos.

well possibly if they are done right but mine were basically just black and white photos, in fact there were none that i liked and I wanted some of the kids for good old nana birthdays as you do so took some myself which were so much better (if i do say so myself) but its amazing what using a white sheet and a bit of cropping can do to a picture.

Chovynz, Positive Negatives is the name of the photography company -- I think they're trying to be clever.

We had them done last year, and the best thing is you're not pressured into purchasing anything! And we got all the proofs (good size for wallets hehe). The prices were about average I think.

Yes hehe, there I go.
At least the photos aren't negative positives. Thats - sad colour photos. So Kels is getting happy black and whites.
Kels does the flyer have a website? I can't find them on google.
