Two weeks later after cleaning, lysoling, blowing fans I am thrilled to say that our office no longer smells like a farm. Therefore, I am ready to handle looking at the chicks again. Here are my favorites!
So. happy. to. live. in. a. city. and. not. on. a. farm.
Hi, this is Loida the new intern from City-As-School. This is my first blog for PortraitBug.
As Easter aproached PortraitBug was filled with lovely little chicks!
Peeping and giggles is what we heard all day.
Snap shots of little feathery tails and beaks combined with chubby cheeks and toes just made the seasons pictures lovely and just adorable.
Here are some of my favorites.
This weekend we had a bridal shower, birthday party and over 50 portrait sessions that featured live baby chicks. When we got the baby chicks from Becky's farm (Kim, the owner's mom) on Thursday they were those ugly newborn alien looking things and by Thursday evening they had all grown several inches and fluffed up into adorable little fluffy things. By Saturday they were flapping their wings and luckily, they went home yesterday because the office smelled like a farm.
from Koala:
"Yes I am glad they are gone now. But they did grow on me. At first I thought WTF I was the adorable store mascot who do these baby chicks think they are coming in to take all the attention?! And then I broke down and booked myself a 15 minute photoshoot and even though one pooped on me, overall they were adorable"
Stay tuned for Mattie's favorite chick portraits to come later this week when we aren't so swamped with orders!
(Unlock the door, turn on the lights)
Mattie: "Good Morning Koala!"
Koala: "..."
Mattie: "You say so much by saying so little"
Today is his big day. He was turned in last Thursday and you had better believe that I am asking every single person that walks in the store if they lost him last week. If not, he will become our official guardian of the portrait studio props and join the PortraitBug team.
Yesterday he needed a break from the cold and we found him amongst a bed of some Prima flowers. During the afternoon we found him giving a hug to the new letterpress machine.
This morning I presented him with a framed picture of himself which obviously, he loved.
From the desk of Koala:
Hey everyone! Sorry for my absence these past few days. Yes, I am still at PortraitBug. No, I have not been claimed by my owner. No, I don't have any ICE contacts except for a flaky kangaroo. Yes, it is lonely here at night, thanks for reminding me.
At least I have been busy! PortraitBug ordered these fantastic foam boards of all the different size options to help customers visualize the differences. For a supplementary visual, here I am next to each size.
Helpful? Definitely.
