One of my dearest friends was prepared for me to say no. Her son was getting his braces off April 29th. He has a photo submission deadline of May 8. She didn't expect me to be able to accommodate that tight timeline. No problem. We were set to snap some photos on Tuesday the 30th. But it was cold. I knew my subject wouldn't love to have his photos taken to begin with, so I couldn't afford to add inclement weather to his experience. As it turns out, Saturday, May 4 had a good forecast. It would put the pressure on me to hurry up and get some photos ready quickly, but that's no problem. In fact, I'm taking a little break from processing to write this blog.

I think waiting for the weather was a great idea. This braces-less senior was willing to smile. Because he wasn't frozen, he was willing to walk about downtown Jackson with me so we could have some fun! He was a champ of a sport. I'd love to write more, but I have a deadline to meet! ;)
