I'm a little behind the ball on the Christmas cards. I decided to pull out my beloved Canon Rebel to take Holiday pictures of DD b/c my digital has such a long delay that it's hard to get good shots of a non-posing subject.
Well, DH and I had her in hysterics this morning and got some really great pictures. I took 4 rolls of Kodak Max 400 to CVS because I wanted them developed today, and a new CVS literally just opened at the top of my street.
The pictures are mildly grainy but very pale in color. Is this something that is the developer's fault? Or is it a result of poor photography (I'm far from the professional), or bad film, or insufficient lighting (I was in good light and my auto flash was on)??? There is a wonderful mom and pop photography store in my area that I could go to if it's possible to get better prints from the negatives.
Any information would be so greatly appreciated... It's DD's first Christmas and I want great cards!!!
Thanks!
