So last month I ran a contest. You tell me which font my new logo should be and one of you would be randomly picked to win a free mini session.

Emily won. I had never met her and do not even know how she found my page. I messaged her and she informed me the session was for her three year old Lucy. 

"Great when do you want to come up to the studio."

"Well would it be ok to do a Lifestyle Mini Session at the house?"

Ok........

I am always slightly nervous with new clients, especially going into their home. I see visions of the Addams Family snapping their fingers in front of the creepy manor.

I pull up and sorry to say no bats, no lightening, no finger snapping.

I walk in and there are photos on every wall. Wonderful! Except I notice they are all beautiful and professionally taken. So I had to ask.

"Who is your usual photographer?"

"Oh Samantha Lupo is my cousin."

Damnit! Not only is she a good photographer, she is a good person too, so I can't even talk smack about her.

In the living room little Lucy is trying to convince Dad to read her a story.

"Where do you want to start?"

"Here, go ahead and read to her."

They finish the book and Mom had to join in because her voices are better then Daddy's.

From there she spots me. 

"Wanna see my room."

"Sure"

A whirlwind as Lucy deems me worthy to play with. Jump on the bed, crawl under bed to retrieve toy, talk to cat, show me book collection, show me My Little Pony collection, get buried in My Little Ponies the size of my car, must show me her bike, look at bubbles, look at camera, show me train set, show me her camera.

This is twenty minutes with a 3 year old! LOL

They might not need me as their photographer but I at least made a new friend!

People I'm telling you invite me into your home! ....like a vampire MWAHAHAHAH!
