Never enough time...

First, apologies. We haven't posted much on here lately, but I wanted to share our latest goof-up with everyone. We were approached by a close friend to do a few shots of the kids for Mom's Mothers Day present. No problem. Quick and dirty, and we would still have time to get everything else done on that already hectic day, right? ...wrong.
As usual, things got messy around my house. We already had a house full of kids, all coming and going different directions, family came in from out of town, we had a school musical to get ready for that night. And then our shoot.
Did we get some cute stuff? Yeah, I think so. But when all was said and done, I missed the boat when it came down to really focusing my attention on our clients that afternoon. Not only did the shoot suffer, but so did everyone and everything else that afternoon.

Lesson learned. We're being trusted (and paid) to do the best possible job we can for people, without interruption. I'm SO thankful that our clients were people we have a "walk in without knocking and help yourself to our food" relationship with, or they would probably never call us again. From this day on, we simplify our busy life on shoot days. We've hopefully done an OK job at making sure clients know that we're doing our best for them, but we can always do a better job...work in progress!

Thanks to Daniel and the kids and MY family for being so understanding! And to "neverenoughtime" - this one's for you...and Hal and I love you too. Hope your Mothers Day was amazing!
