SNATCHING VICTORY OUT OF THE JAWS OF DEFEAT



My cell rang at 7:20 PM Friday night. Sheepishly a little voice, "we have been, cough, talking, cough cough, ahem, throat clearing, COULD YOU PHOTOGRAPHY MY WEDDING TOMORROW?” Yikes!! Unfortunately, the day was full, so it was an east-west head nod. Sorry. Thank you. Good-bye. 

Ring ring. Me again. Can you take some photographs of us in our hotel late in the afternoon, in Herndon, the next town over? ABSOLUTELY! Price and time agreed.

Fast forward to Saturday 11 AM. 
Change in plans, can we just come to your studio and take some photographs? ABSOLUTELY, 1 PM agreed. 

1 PM 
Ring ring.  Just leaving house, no groom, no photos, money for shoot next weekend. Okaaaaaaaaaay???????

Slow forward to 2 PM. 
Knock knock. Wedding # 1: paid in full. Wedding # 2 (in July): deposit placed, contract in works.

Keith and Associates, Fine Photography treats all customers with dignity and respect. It really pays off.

PS: The deposits came in a beautiful, hand written thank you note. SWEET, classy lady.
