One year photos?

[Deleted]

If you're planning on doing one year old photos when are you getting them done? I'd like to use one on her invitation and I have an idea for a cute decoration that uses one as well but that would mean getting them done pretty early in order to have time to order and send invites. So what are you planning on doing?

I'm struggling with this, too. I think I'm going to get them done when she's actually a year old (give or take a week). I'd like the photos back by Mother's Day to use as gifts and her bday is May 1st so we will probably do the last week in April.

I'm not doing a photo invitation. I will be giving out photos at her party. So I am having my friend come do them again 2 weeks before her party. She will let me choose which ones we want to print for the party and edit them asap so I can get them ordered. This works because my friend will do the quick edit for us. So you may need to do it sooner with a regular photog.

I think we'll just get them done after he turns one or right before. The only picture I need for his party is his 12 month picture to complete the 1-12 month picture banner thing. And then I'll probably put one of the professional ones on his thank you cards.

Hmm okay- I'd like to actually have one yr old pictures too but I was thinking of doing a smash cake picture on the invite but I guess I could always take that- we've done a pretty decent job with her Halloween and Christmas picture.

I can't wait to see everyone's 1 yr photos!!!!

I was going to say, you take awesome pictures of her that look professional so you will definitely be able to get a good one for the invite!

The smash cake picture is the one we're going to put on the TY cards.

We'll do the same thing we did at Christmas - set up a make-shift photo studio in DH's office and take them over the course of a week. We're not using them in the invites (especially since I'm almost done with the invites). We're just doing them for our own use.

I was just thinking about this. I'll probably get them done the weekend before her birthday (it falls on a Wednesday) because her party is the Saturday after.

I was looking into this over the weekend. I wanted a specific photographer and her website says it takes 14 days to have the photos up then another 2 weeks to get them after ordered. I have no idea if this is normal but I do like the idea of just taking one at home then getting her pics around her birthday. At the same time I'm not sure I'm doing a phot invitation....still thinking about everything.

We have ours booked for 4/18, which is a week after her birthday and that Thursday after her party. I think using them for the TY cards is a great idea. Might steal that. Thanks, Cara!

I'm thinking we will do his photos after his actual birthday. Maybe the weekend after or something.

This one year stuff is giving me the sads.

I'm going to take photos of her myself for the invite and have professional photos done a few days before her first birthday. I'm going to have my step son be my helper since he makes her laugh and smile unlike anyone else!

I'm hoping to do them the weekend before- his birthday is a Wednesday. I'll do his party the weekend after

We got a session for Christmas and I'm really excited, but the photog is preggo and the pics either need to be done in March (I still need to call for details) or after June. We'll probably have them done a bit early. I can always take ones closer to her birthday.

I'll be doing them myself. I hope the bluebonnets are beautiful this spring!

We're scheduled to have ours done in the next 2 weeks (just days before H's bday).
