Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Our365...

I got the newborn pictures at the hospital. Didn't buy them because they're like $90-$100, and that seemed ridiculous to me, and the pictures weren't even that great because LO wasn't cooperating. But now that I'm thinking about it I almost regret it because he was sooooo tiny and new, in all his puffy and discolored glory! So I logged onto my account, looked at the pictures... There's a few that I really want to have but I don't think it's worth paying $100...

I know this question is probably ridiculous.. but is there any way to hack the site and just print them?

  • It will still have their watermark on it, but you can hit pause on each picture and take a screen print then paste it into a document. I don't plan on ever printing them but I wanted to be able to look back at them if I ever wanted to so this was a good option for me. 

    Our pics weren't very good either if it makes you feel any better.  


  • Loading the player...
  • I downloaded them onto my computer so I will always have them to look back upon, like PP said. They weren't great, but I also want to be able to just remember him in the hospital. I won't print them and they still have the watermark on them.

  • My mom actually bought us a package only because he was so small and only 12 hours old.  It was kinda unique.  Isn't there a way to just buy one or two pics?  I thought they told me I could get single pictures for $15ish.  I could be mistaken though.

  • My parents got us the package with the disc included to print pics from, but I'm almost sure the girl who did our lo's pics said you can buy just the disc on its own, or like pp said a print of certain ones you like. The photographer we had took really great pics of our ds,,.and we printed and enlarged a bunch to hang up because ds was soooo tiny:) maybe take a picture of the screen, and do it that way, or isn't there a way to actually use the computer to save a ?picture? of the screen of the computer and try that way?

  • Our pictures could've been better, too. I think newborns generally aren't that photogenic. I thought they were kind of cute anyway. My DH is a photographer, though, and he absolutely hated them (his pictures were actually better and he was just using a phone...he forgot his camera b/c we thought I was in false labor going in). A family photographer is just a stroke of luck, though :)

     Most of the things they do with the pictures can be done in Photoshop in about five minutes, so if you learn how to edit with that (or GIMP...it's almost the same thing but free) you'll be able to make some pretty great albums from home. I remember they had a specialty sky page and all they did was put down a black-to-white gradient as a mask layer and reduced the opacity of a generic pic of clouds. 

    Trust me, though, knowing how to use photo editing software totally ruins sentimental companies like Our365 for you, lol.

  • I ended up getting the whole package. It was like $300. I'm glad I did because he looks so different in the pro photos we had taken at 8 days old. The pics Our365 took were great though, despite how terrible I looked! I'd rather spend $100 (if you can) and not regret it down the road.

  • Can someone type out step-by-step how to view the pictures?? I know i seem dumb but i just dont know if im clicking on the right link. The nurse took a bunch of pictures..maybe at least 10 shots, but on the website, it's only showing me one picture. I don't know if i'm doing it right but i would love to see the rest of the pictures. Thanks!

  • You can right click on the image and Save As...  Then you can upload them and print them at Walgreens or Shutterfly.....I did it :)
    Soon to be a family of three!
  • We just ordered 1 birth announcement from them for $20 with different poses on it but even that took FOREVER to get as they had originally lost our photos. So glad we didn't buy a larger package.
