It looks like terrible weather for pictures at the beach. I hope it doesnt turn into a disaster like yours in 2004...I am glad you revealed that the hostess gets the "disc" of her pictures...now I know why so much effort went into organizing the portrait party....take care, gillianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351047022817723850.post-49970709821867398572007-11-07T07:48:00.000-08:002007-11-07T07:48:00.000-08:00I know it's too late to complain now, but couldn't...I know it's too late to complain now, but couldn't you have complained to the hostess at the time of the party? I mean, let's get real -- if the photos were supposed to be inside (and you had already talked about not having them at the park b/c of kids getting dirty) and then we had the wildfires exacerbating the issue, what nerve did she have? You must be a conflict avoider like me!! I would have been so rip-roaring mad I'd have been foaming at the mouth. Your kids just handle things with such aplomb.<BR/><BR/>I always take my own photos too, on my dismally old camera, but it still give people the general idea of how outrageously adorable the girls are.

And I always take the picture myself. The kids are in front of the tree and hopefully in somewhat matching clothes. I take the picture and have them made into wallets. They are not professional, but good enough for everyone to see how the kids have grown. Last year we did send a photo card. We had gone on a cruise last summer and gotten some really nice photos there. The cruise photographer had a copywright release so we could copy the pictures and that's what we did. This year it will be back to taking my own pictures.<BR/>BrianaThe Traveling Yogihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13006993240317444809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1351047022817723850.post-90165850493469436502007-11-07T00:19:00.000-08:002007-11-07T00:19:00.000-08:00Did you ever think of suing?
