I just got an e-mail from someone who wants me to do their kids' portraits! Woohoo! This is my first non-friend client. She saw my friend's kids' pics (the little boy w/ the football & the little girl w/ the pigtails). She's the SIL of my friend, so I do know this person, but she's not a friend if that makes sense. So, I consider her my first word-of-mouth client! :clap

    WAY TO GO, JAN wings.gif

    And she'll tell two friends and they'll tell two friends, and so on and so on.

    This could be the start of something big!

    Congrats and good luck, though you won't need luck.
