I took Nathan and Lilli for their annual Christmas pictures this past week and oh what a nightmare! I choose to use JC Pennys (opposed to Sears) since they h
ad impressed me by doing a great job on Nathan's 4 year old pictures and Lilli's 6 week pictures, I'm not saying it was a bad choice but simply bad timing. Our appointment was at 6:40 a good hour before our "little flowers" cranky time which would have been great if the studio had not been running an hour behind. We went back for pictures shortly before 8:00 and were out out the door at 8:16. This was not because Lilli had become cranky but because the photographer was cranky! She had clearly had a long day and just wanted to go home (as did the rest of us!) This led to her being inpatient and uncreative and it showed in almost all the pictures! These are the only ones that were somewhat cute. I called the store after several days of stewing over the terrifying photo shoot. I was impressed by their desire to make things right. We went back in tonight (again at 6:40) for retakes and the pictures turned out adorable. The photographer was patient, creative and actually listened to my request! She worked hard to make the kids smile and just kept snapping until she captured their personality's with big grins and bright eyes! Thanks to her I will continue to use JC Pennys and will now have some really cute Christmas gifts from Nathan and Lilli!
