Portrait Patience

When we arrived at 4:40pm for our 4:40pm appointment, Alina asked one of the other Moms in the waiting room how long she had been waiting.... her appointment was at 4:00pm. Steve swung by Starbucks to pick up snaks for everyone during our wait.

Here's our first shot of the day. This pose makes it looks like someone is missing... in the middle of the shot?


Why is Gretchen looking off to the left?


This one is pretty good, actually. Bravo.


This ended up as our best family shot.

This was *not* one of our best family shots.
It's hard to comprehend that you actually PAY for BAD PHOTOS..... Steve and Alina speculated on how much it would cost to buy (or rent) our own big flashes/lamps..... Or, just rent a studio and bring our own camera. Maybe that is the future wave of photography. After all, we have a digital SLR.

Anyway, we did manage at least one good photo... another to add to the collection.
