I was gifted a milestone package for my son. It includes newborn, 4 month, 8 month, and a 12 month with a smash cake session. I absolutely love the pictures don’t get me wrong but my mom has insisted on getting pictures from the same photographer for every holiday that she offers. The milestone package alone was $1800 + tax. She’s now doing Christmas pictures that are $260 for a 15 minute session. I think it’s getting too much because each time we have done 2-5 outfit changes and different backgrounds. My will buy multiple outfits that are not every day outfits for him to wear when he cannot even wear all of them during his photos. I just feel like it’s too much. He is my rainbow baby but it’s becoming a lot to plan for mainly because the way that my mom is doing it.

Well I would talk to your mom and tell her how you feel

Say yes !!! It seems like too much but then a year later… you wonder why didn’t I have more pics

Personally I would be thrilled if someone gifted that to me, but I personally love taking photos. I know not everyone is as into photo shoots as I am. It gets expensive buying photo sessions and outfits so to me it sounds wonderful for someone to gift that to me.
