I know this place has to have some ads to stay free, but.... Is anyone else offended by the free 8x10 at JC Penny's ad?  Your professional portrait experts?  Come on.

Come on BlueTree... do you know how many shots it takes to get to that free 8x10?... how many dancing stuffed animals and hand puppets have to perform?... how many lameass cornball phrases the photographer has to use to get to that fake smile?... how many studio props you have to dis-infect after the drooling infant parade?... how many cans of studio air freshener you have to go thru every week?... how many silly canvas scenic backgrounds you have to buy?... how many bitchy moms and grandma's you gotta put up with?... how many store customers are 'looky-lewing' over your shoulder?... the list goes on and on... LOL!

I once had a lady call me and ask my rates for a portrait sitting. When I told her, she gasped and said, I can go to Sears for 14.99. At this point, I realized that nothing I said was going to change her mind so it didn't matter what I said back to her. So, I said "surely do didn't think you were going to beat that price did you?" - lol

The truth of the matter is, they are professional in every sense of the word. One may not like the quality but hey, it goes back to the old saying, you get what you pay for!
