The Procrastinating Picture Lady

April 13, 2008

I don't know if y'all recall but I took Marshall to a photographer in Argyle when Marshall was one month old (back in November). It was a bit of a harrowing experience taking your one month old out to her home. She had a million dollar home that was exquisite inside, but her studio was in her garage and there happened to be a cold front blowing in while I was there. So I had to strip my poor baby down to his birthday suit for about 2 hours in her drafty garage and wait for him to fall asleep. Which of course he wouldn't because he was so cold.

It has taken her about 6 months to really send us any photos. As it is she only sent us four and she says she is "still working" on the rest. She said she's having a hard time finding creative inspiration on his photos since he wasn't cooperative during the shoot. I'm actually really angry about the whole thing since I told her up front the moment that I arrived what I was looking for. Here are the four photos she did send. Her "creative interpretation" pieces were especially crappy. It took me a while to figure out what image she superimposed his body on, but I think its a toy play that is blown up.

You're right. These pictures don't do your beautiful boy justice! He is such a handsome little prince!

I'm glad you finally at least got a couple of them back - it has been WAY too long. Of course they are sweet - how could they not be with Marshall as the star, however I think that with what she had to work with, they should be much better. Hope the next batch is better, and glad you went with the picture people for his next ones!
