just a little update on holiday season

Hi blog stalkers! Just a super quick update on all things bsquared.

–editing your sessions– I’m fully “in the weeds” between shooting and editing all the recent (and upcoming) sessions for the holidays. Sandy really screwed things up around here business wise so I’m doing the best I can to catch up. I’m currently running 2-3 weeks from the session until galleries are completed. Why does it take that long? Well, most people don’t know that it takes me a minimum of 4 HOURS to edit EACH SESSION (2.5 for each mini session). The hour of shooting is kinda the easy part. The hours upon hours at the computer editing all of your photos to perfection (not to mention the emailing, uploading, blogging, saving to multiple backups, christmas card proofing, bookkeeping, order placement, packing, shipping, etc- none of which are included in those 4hrs of editing time) are exhausting even though I’m just sitting here. So, please be a little kind and patient with me while I try to get everything done in time for the holidays, take care of my family, and sleep even just a tiny bit.

*I hope the above doesn’t come off as complainy or holier-than-thou cause it’s not meant to. I just want to let you all know why it takes a while for you to get your photos after the session is completed.

–holiday cards– if you are interested in having a custom bsquared holiday card created for you, please let me know as soon as possible. The cut off date for holiday card orders is Monday 12/3. I’m happy to make you a proof for your approval and we’ll make your holiday card a huge hit! Just shoot me an email and we can get started on your card right away.

–gallery orders– if you haven’t yet placed your order from your 2012 session, please do so prior to Monday 12/10. bsquared will be closed (not taking any orders or delivering any orders) from Monday 12/17 thru Friday 1/4/13. I still have some sessions scheduled that week and the week of Christmas, so those of course will be going ahead as planned. But no bsquared orders will be accepted after Monday 12/10, and no orders delivered after Monday 12/17 until the new year.

–bob our elf on the shelf. not sure if bob will be making his usual appearance on the blog this year I’m sorry to report. I’m so behind and I just don’t think I have the time to play this year. So sorry to all the bob fans out there- he’ll make a triumphant return for 2013!

–beyrer family holiday cards– because our totally amazing shoot was ruined by that Sandy chick, I’ll be lucky if I get out New Years cards this year. So if you’re expecting something fabulous you may want to adjust your expectations accordingly.

Well, that was a totally depressing post. Sorry. I’ll leave you with a picture from summer days on the beach (which I hope is still there in Pt. Lookout).  Yeah, still depressing.
