Thank You WalMart

I got the best compliment from the employees in the WalMart photo center today! I sent in some of my pictures online to be printed at my local WalMart store, and when I went to pick them up the lady said "Here are the pictures that we can give to you, but the others we can't give you because they're professional pictures and you didn't give us a copyright statement." I laughed and said with a smile on my face, "I took all of the pictures myself. Thank you though!" She had to talk to the photo center manager about it, who came over and asked me where I took the pictures. I quickly responded "My living room", and she said "Okay, sign this copyright statement saying that you took the pictures and we'll keep it here on file for you." I have taken scanned copies of actual "professional" pictures to have them printed at WalMart before and have never had a problem, but this one stopped them! Although it wasn't meant to be a compliment, that exchange made my day!

Here's the picture that tricked the WalMart peeps into thinking that I am a professional:

I have to admit, that is one of my favorites of all of the pictures that I've taken of Belle so far! I printed this in 8x10 size and put it in a black frame and WOW! I love it! My camera and Photoshop rule... and having a great model doesn't hurt either!

There are more pictures from that "Belle-arina" photo session on our photo gallery.
