I'm having a similar problem right now and it is driving me insane. I have taken the photos of 4 children and for two months these two different sets of parents have put off "sitting down with their spouse" to discuss what they wanted! It is maddening because two months have now passed by and that income, while it will come later, was being counted on for that time period, in the meantime I now have several other appointments for photo shoots. I don' t like feeling pressured and when my waiting lists grow long I get frazzled. So here I am squeezing money out of turnips while the list grows longer. (Shouldn't I be happy with a waiting list?)
I have made it clear to these people that they are about to lose there place in line and it may take longer than they originally anticipated to get their portraits the longer they wait to make a decision. Fortunately, that worked for one mother and I finally got an email from her last night telling me what she wanted. In the meantime, I spent that down time practicing on all of those Sara's, so it wasn't time lost all together, it is just putting a huge kink in my bank account at the moment.
