And no one answered. The store opens at 9, so naturally the photo studio opens at 9, right? Nope. They open at 10. So the helpful non-photography studio employee wrote our name down for the first slot of the day at 1015 and we waited. And waited. And waited. Another family shows up. At 1030 the photographer comes in. She had no idea she had any appointments before 11, much less two. And it takes them 20 minutes to set up and they usually schedule appaointments 20 minutes apart. So she called the employee who lives closest to the store to come in and help. I think we got out of there sometime around noon, with four pictures taken, none of them with the backdrop we wanted (they didn't have the one they were advertising. nice). <BR/><BR/>For Christmas pictures we asked my dad to do it with his plain ol' digital camera. Taking posed pictures are a pain and I'm never satisfied with how I look, so I always try to weasel my way out of it. <BR/><BR/>And what's with moms and demanding the hair down? No matter what I'm doing, what I look like, my mom makes me take my hair down before she takes a picture of me. It gets in the way! It makes me fussy! I have to constantly manage it, instead of managing whatever it is I'm supposed to be managing. <BR/><BR/>:)anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03993158642184311825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36612182.post-22383227030154372462008-12-09T21:06:00.000-07:002008-12-09T21:06:00.000-07:00I hate family photos too- they're such a PAIN!! E...I hate family photos too- they're such a PAIN!! Everyone has to wear something that looks good as a group, girls hair needs to look pretty, you hope no one has a bruise or cut on their face- it's just too much work for something I am not into- espcially because it costs a lot. So I understand your pain! :-)sariahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04027291557643997827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36612182.post-63299452079514718692008-12-09T08:18:00.000-07:002008-12-09T08:18:00.000-07:00"1-888-Make-An-Appointment-With-A-Less-Than-C..."1-888-Make-An-Appointment-With-A-Less-Than-Congenial-Employee number" this cracks me up!! I can feel your pain! Our "appointment" sounds so similar. We only went because Mom was footing the bill & even then, I doubt we will go back! <BR/><BR/>Glad you got the whole thing done!MamaJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06640267511810411108noreply@blogger.com
