I have not taken the family to do a family photo in over three years so this year I thought why not… The last time we were in a photo dressed up together my daughter was under a year old and now she is getting ready to turn four. On Monday I dressed both in red button up shirts with tie and black pants, while my daughter wore a black and white dress and I had on a black and red dress. After waiting for an hour to be seen we finally were taken back to do our pictures. I was not thrilled with the service but I did see a few shots that I was excited about. Once we finished getting up and down, moving here and there we waited again for another hour to start going through the photos and pick our favorites. I finally asked the ladies if I could just come back the following day to go through the photos because it was already 8:30 at night and the kids and I were starving. We headed out afterwards to Olive Garden and had a wonderful meal. Today I headed back up to the photo shop and waited for another 30 minutes to be sat down in front of a computer only to spend the next hour and a half staring at the same photos over and over again. As I looked at the photos I noticed that in over half of the pictures my bra or boob was sticking out for all to see. I was disappointed and asked the lady if my children and I could come back and showed her my reason. She apologized and said pick out the ones you like of what we have and then we can schedule a re shoot as well. I sat for another 30 minutes and then finally asked if I could come back again and go through the photo’s once I had my new photos and she said fine. So Thursday the kids and I will put back on our clothes and set out to take the photo’s again. Lets hope the third time is a charm and that no boobs end up on film.
