Thinking about family photos

garden four

I have folders and folders full of photos of my kiddos on my hard drive, I rarely don’t have a camera or my phone in hand, just in case. Though to be fair, I’m not so good at actually printing any of these out! I’ve been thinking for a while it might be nice to have some professional photos taken. These kiddos are growing so quickly, and it’s not always easy to get all four in one place to have photos together. Especially with Christmas just around the corner, they’d make lovely gifts for grandparents!

As my to-do list is usually a mile long, I never get around to sorting these things out, so when I was asked to have a look at a website called Bidvine, which makes it fast and simple to hire local professionals – anyone from dog sitters to photographers, a man with a van to a decorator, I said yes {obviously}.

It’s a simple site to use, you select the service you require, enter your postcode and answer a couple of simple questions {for photography, it asked if what kind of photos I was looking for, the age of the children, how many children, etc}. You can also enter your budget, and then sit back and wait for the emails to arrive. By the end of the day, I’d had three quotes from local photographers, giving me their fees as well as why they were the best for the job.

I was impressed with the ease of using the site, if, like most of us, you are time poor, this is a great way to get several quotes easily. It only took me five minutes to enter my details, and it would have taken me much longer to look up local photographers and get in touch with each one directly.

I’ll definitely be booking marking this site for future use, it’s a fantastic time saver.
