Being that in 2012 I didn’t offer printing services to any clients other than brides/grooms, I don’t often get to see the fruits of my labor in print. Sure, I look at the hundreds of photos I take after the family session, cull them down to around 50+, edit each photo, and then post the photos onto my Facebook page and blog (admittedly I look at the blog more than a few times after that either criticizing myself or admiring my work – but that’s another story).

It’s very rare that I get to see what photos the clients actually love. I definitely have my favorites. And sometimes those are the same ones that the clients love… and sometimes they’re not.

But, one of my favorite times of the year is when I start receiving Christmas cards from friends and family – ESPECIALLY when all of the cards I have received feature photos that were taken by ME 🙂 As narcissistic as it may sound, I don’t mean it like that. The reason I love getting these cards is 1.) I love that I have that close relationship with my clients. And 2.) I truly enjoy seeing which photos my clients pick as their favorites… Merry Christmas!
