I wasn't aware they had this service before we were in the hospital. Same company came into our room... Just waltzed in like it was a given that that was part of the routine for the day. I was going on my 2nd day of no sleep & so foggy, but started looking through their paperwork & realized what they were all about. I drug myself out of bed to poke my head out into the hall & tell them no thanks. I had forgotten to complain about that part of our hospital stay... This should not be an opt out, but an opt in service & certainly not on their schedule or at that early stage. My helpers were either out or asleep & I truly felt delirious. Not a time to need to deal with door to door sales.
Eta: we had a newborn session done a week later & those were awesome (but still really pricey!), and so I'd never have agreed to have them bug me if I'd known they would be cruising the halls.

We let them do the pictures and did not buy any. We did do newborn photos around 3 weeks at our home. We wanted some of the 3 of us but me just giving birth the night before and my husband just waking up in a daze.. they were not the kind of framer photos we wanted.
Plus, had I know how many hospital personal would be coming and going constantly I would have told the photographer no thanks and enjoyed 20 minutes of peace instead.
