Thanks again folks.

At first glance, today was a pretty good day. We did 25 portrait sessions with on-site proofing (after an initial review by me) for all but 5 of them. The largest print purchased was a 20x24. Not counting set-up and tear down, we worked just a hair over 5 hours.

Things got a little hectic here and there when we seemed to get rushed by several folks at once.

There were three sessions that had three Bichons at once that came out better than most seemed to expect they would.

As a nice little surprise the president of the Bichon Rescue gave us a wooden box with a glass top that she fashioned after Sam, our Corgi, as a thanks for helping them out.

Only one family opted for the "traditional" portrait with the rest going for the fall set up. Once I get everything uploaded, backed up, and sorted I'll post some shots of what the set ended up looking like for the most part.

It did change a couple times based on the number of dogs and whether or not their humans chose to be in the shot.

Thanks so much for all the advice and tips.

Now I need to figure out how to streamline the process on site.
