Where's the cheapest place to get a few professional photos?

I want a really good one for the birth announcement. Nothing too overboard. I was thinking JC Penny.. any other places? Looking to spend under $50 total.

Thanks!

    I had professional photos done at my house, but i also went to JCPenney to get some Christmas pictures.  They ended up taking a bunch of pictures and I was surprised at what a good job they did.  I'm sure you can find a package for under $50.  We received a lot of pictures, baby announcements, and 1 framed picture for $160....I thought it was a good deal.

    Do you have a Portrait Innovations near you?  They have been the best for me for the price!

    I bought a piece of black velvet for 25 bucks and had my FIL take pics with his nice camera.  I am too cheap for professional pics, even though I wanted some!  I would call around to find someone affordable.  JCP can be hit or miss, from what I have heard.  Maybe find an up and coming photographer who will work with your budget.

    JC Penny would be my suggestion. They always have deals, so if you don't already have a coupon you can go to their website and print one to save some cash. Don't ever go there without a coupon, it would be wasteful!

    You can see the current offer here:

    Or you could search the web or look through some baby magazines for a deal with free sitting fee (normally $9.99). 

    We got in and out for under $50 and still got a bunch of pics!!

    Sears! $10 for 36 pictures w/the coupon that is almost always available on their website. It's so cheap, we go all the time.
