Tea for two, or what's the value of wonderful clients?

Wonderful photography Clients.. we all wish for them. We dream for them. We hope and pray for them … We are creative hearts and we long for the day when someone will say.. ” oh wait, I love what it is that you do”! Jessica and Nick are those clients..

Yup they are. I consider myself not only blessed to work with them, but honored to know them. He is a Major in the army, and she is the most perfect mother and spouse. She works two jobs.. takes care of children.. has been patiently by his side through deployments, and moving, and all the things that go along with military life. She does it with kindness and grace. Not only does this mom and dad have a great love of country, they are devoted to their church, and their community. Yes.. they are the perfect client.

My thoughts are that .. perfect clients Do become friends. There was recently a discussion in a forum about does friendship get in the way of the photography business? Well, I guess my answer would be.. why should it? I’ve taken care of friends before as a nurse. I have taken care of my family before as a nurse. We are all put here together on this earth to love one another. A job, even as a photographer, should not let us be separated as friends. It should not keep us from forming long lasting bonds with families. I mean.. it’s why I love doing what I do. So enjoy this teddy bear picnic.. It was brought together for the love of a little girl, the love of wonderful clients.. and the Love of photography. Memories are made each day. Please don’t keep them all stored on your cell phone. Hire a photographer. Save your memories .

They are priceless, and don’t come around again.
