Some Pro Shots

When we were in Hawaii part of our hotel package was that we got a professional photo shoot included. I thought they would take us out to the beach and do really cool shots but it was not that cool. Basically the lady spent 10 minutes with us and only took pictures around the hotel lobby and what we got was a free 4x6 and had to pay for anything else. None of the pictures impressed me much so we just took our free 4x6. Once we got home I started thinking about a few of the pictures and was sad that I did not have them. One option was that we could get all the pictures on a disk for $100. At the time we were not interested but once we got home I started wanting all those pictures. So, I called them up and they shipped me the CD. Upon reviewing the pictures I am still not totally impressed but there are a few I am happy we have and on the whole I think to have these pictures it was worth the $100.



Wish Mia were looking at the camera but still cute.


Love the dead pan face.



Kind of cute. The look on Mia's face is totally funny.

This is the picture that got me to order the CD. I remember loving it but thinking Mia has her tongue out and that is not cool but after thinking about it I totally wanted this picture. I just think it is so cute.


The family pic.



Not a fan of the full body shot but it is OK.

So those are the best of the professional shots. What do you think?

  5. You all look great, but Christy, you look so pretty in these pictures!

    It was wonderful to see you all yesterday! We had a fantastic time. Could you believe the fireworks show? And our luck?! Both the girls fell asleep before we were out of the park. With the crowds and the walk, and waiting for the elevator, I didn't get home till 11pm!

    Can't wait to see you guys again!

  12. Christy,
    The photos are great. I love the one of Mia on the horse. It reminds me of the terra cotta warriors horse. Ironic huh? It's impossible to get everyone looking perfect with a family of 5 but that's what makes them real and shows true personalities. Love them.

  17. well, I'm not too impressed with the color, the exposures, or the posing...considering how CUTE your kids are and the photos you get of them out on the beach. But then again, $100 for the CD means this photographer isn't one of the great ones I know on the island. ;)

    Very glad you got them though as the faces and memories are wonderful. :)
