Sharon -- Wow - Thanks for sharing how you approach planning for your portraits! (And by the way, the lady in red with the white roses is stunning!

) That level of up-front involvement had never occurred to me. Your clients must love being so well taken care of!
Michelle, Thanks so much for the encouragement! I've learned my lesson on this one! It probably took 3 times as long as it needed too and for all the wrong reasons!

From here on out, color and composition questions will be resolved up front... and no more reference photos that need 'help'!
