JC Penney Portrait Studio -
I found a Groupon which waived sitting fees, offered a CD, and three 8x10s for a reasonable price. I made an appointment online which was very simple and accommodating for a busy mom of four. Initially, I was concerned with the lack of organization shown with three staff photographers on site. I was checked in by one. Then addressed by the second, to check me in a second time, and finally taken to a room for photographs by a third which was a bit exasperating, as she asked the same questions that the the first two had asked.
The poses were not to my liking and I ended up directing most of the session as I had to have new pics for the house as well as pics for gifts over the holiday season for the grands.
I was very pleased with the final product (pics) but felt rushed throughout choosing the album and it was not explained as well as should have been regarding access to an online album for the next 90 days.
Ultimately, it was a good value but the process could have been streamlined a bit better if they had an adequate number of personnel on site.
