4 years ... what? That is crazy.

Take a trip down memory lane with me...

{disclaimer... since I only keep client images on my hard drive for one year, some of these are taken off line and the quality shows}

(didn't want to use a family pose and spoil the Christmas cards/gifts... )

Wasn't that fun? 4 years. I love to get to know my clients and their kids. Makes pics easier on everyone. Its like I am part of the family. This last photo was taken last week, these kids were angels. No joke. Didn't even have to pull out my rubber chicken. Didn't have to sing or stand on my head or bark like a dog. Nope. Just pure fun. No tears. 

Ok, lets do another... are you with me?

If you are the winner and you can't make the Nov 2nd date, the session can be given away to a friend or family member to use on Nov 2. Think Christmas gifts. Family loves photos.
