If you had newborn photos taken or plan on having them taken, and don't mind answering, how much was/is the investment? I'm a little sticker shocked on how pricey they are and not sure if it's just my area or if this is the norm. I've seen rates between $450 and $1000, depending on what package is picked.
Re: Newborn Photos
ETA: I knew I would never regret spending the money but that I might regret it if I didnt. Now that he's here I know I made the right choice for us. They're more than just a picture to send out as an announcement to me.

we are spending about $1000 over the course of his first year of life on pictures. we decided to do a 'watch me grow' plan and there are 5 sessions done thoroughout the first year and this price includes prints of all photos, a cd at the end of the year, a photo album at the end of the year with a certain number of pictures in it..
IMO the money is absolutely well worth it.
