And four realtors…

So after spending the first two and a half hours finishing up the keying in of baseball pictures, I spent almost an hour with Mrs. Bennett and her daughter going over dance pictures for the last three dance seasons. This is one of our favorites of her. A little of the new Impressions has been applied. You can see that the skin glows a little, there’s more emphasis on the face and it just seems so much softer. There are technical descriptions for what we’ve done, but the picture speaks for itself.

After that, I hurried down to Inwood to do some team photos for Professional Realty, Inc. in Inwood. I was really taken by the building they occupy. Built from modulars, it has the appearance of a nice home on the side of the road, but inside it is all office. I really liked the front porch – which needs some furniture, but did have a lot of nice hanging flowers. So, when they tell you it’s the fourth driveway on the left, don’t pass by the blue house with the wide front porch – that’s the office!

Here’s a shot from their sitting. They had about 15 photos taken in four locations and in two outfits. We did it all in about an hour. Very cooperative and helpful, Kathy, Pam, Melissa and Sam made this job a real delight.

When I got back, and after relaxing for a brief moment, another of our dance parents stopped by to see some of the photos. Mrs. Stocker has always been one of our best clients, and enjoys the photos of her daughter a great deal. Diana and I enjoyed sitting with her and talking about her daughter’s portraits, and reviewing something special we’re doing with one of her portraits in particular. Hopefully I’ll have more on that later this week.

Speaking of dance pictures. It’s time for a brag. It’s not often during dance picture season that you have the opportunity to take a magnificent image – one that turns everyone’s head. Well, in a dance studio like Tari Jo’s, there are going to be talented dancers. And Sara is quite talented, and challenged herself and me to capture an image that embodied the skill of the dancer and the timing of the photographer. That image is below. An image like this deserves special treatment, so Diana added some wonderful Impressions work and it went from “wow!” to stunning.

At home, I picked up some branches so Diana could continue mowing while the dogs were out romping around. I did a little more painting around the windows, and took a short fall that bruised my right elbow… I think I’ll live. But the painting will continue. 🙂

Good night, all.
