Easter Pictures ~ Say No to Kiddie Kandids

What is this?! Ok, I've normally had pretty good pictures from Kiddie Kandids in the past, sometimes I think I like it just for the different backgrounds and the fact that I get my pictures right away even though it has gotten more expensive, but this time was ridiculous. I called to make an appointment so everything would go smoothly. We still had to wait 30 minutes for our appt. and the pictures turned out horrible! The girl who took our pictures did not seem familiar with photography. Of course Alexis and Micah are always cute, but they didn't take the time to position them, or even straighten out the background. The individual pictures turned out a little better, but this was the first time I walked away with out buying a single picture. I like the pictures I took of them at home a lot better! The kids were really good during this whole process. I have fussed over their outfits for weeks (I even made Alexis's hat). Oh well, I think the mall-picture-taking days are over.

Ok, I'm totally peeing at how they are squished to one side of the bench and then the fabric on the floor is all scrunched!!! But they look adorable in their outfits! Sounds like someone needs to be fired! I'm impressed with the hat, Ally!
