James,
sounds like a lot of work both getting in and out and when on the floor but it also sounds like you had a great time and did great business. Win/win. Congrats.

Glad the Frenchie folks like your work and that they want you at their National. For portraits, formals or both? Love Frenchies. One of my favorite breeds.

Can't wait to see some images when you're ready to share.

Jim
