aitch - even though you only bought one photo did you get to keep the others on a cd?

TenLordsaLapin · 21/12/2007 23:13

MiniAitch and MiniLapin are long term BLW buddies

She's sooooo scrumptious!

TenLordsaLapin · 21/12/2007 23:15

Nappies, I will share a Hampshire one with you!

Aitch · 21/12/2007 23:15

i like the cheeriness and colourfulness of the venture ones, i must say, i wonder if that's why i got the colour ones here? how much did they cost, if you don't mind me asking?

and Nappies, did you see Lapin's wee boy yesterday, she did a thread. dd thinks he's a hunka burnin' love.

oh just wondered how you got them all on pic trail if you only bought the one.

Aitch · 21/12/2007 23:19

ah, right. they do give you access to a website so you can have the proofs and you can get them from there. but they're only tiny as you can see, so no use for scaling up.

oooh, they're lovely. We got some freebie venture style ones taken recently and although I almost bought loads when viewing them, afterwards I thought about it and realised they weren't for me. They're all white background and the weird lens makes their heads look huge.

I MUCH prefer yours - so nice and natural. It helps, of course, that your DD is gorgeous! The bloke up the street from me does some nice ones, mght get him to do some...

Aitch · 21/12/2007 23:27

do it, i'm really pleased with ours. just think, in just a few years she'll be all gangly and spotty and hate me. i'll need these for comfort.

Actually, he's quite cheap isn't he? And you do get better pictures in your own house I think. Might need to book him

ADDICTEDtosayingHAAAAAAAPYxmas · 21/12/2007 23:28

Aitch · 21/12/2007 23:31

my flat isn't glamorous either, truly, but he seems to find places... plus what he tries to do is get corners of furniture/mum and dad's bed into the shots as he figures that in the future they'll be as interesting to the kid/adult as what they looked like when they were three, iykwim? and believe me, dd is not that photogenic normally, we've got some right howlers to show her boyfriends when she's older.
