Our Poster Girl

This is Jakala, from Clarksville, Tennessee.  Two months after we started United Portrait Studios, (November 2006) we took photos at a day care center in Clarksville.  Jakala's grandmother told the director that she already had more pictures than she knew what to do with so she'd pass on this opportunity.  The day we showed the photos at the center we saw her leaving with Jakala and asked if we had photographed her.  She smiled and explained that she decided not to have them made.  Christina invited her to take a look at the photos of some of the other children. She did and immediately said, "Oh my, I've made a mistake.  When will you be back in this area? Christina checked the calendar and told her we would be in Hopkinsville, Kentucky in three weeks.  Though it was a seventy mile drive, Jakala was there.  We asked if we could use her as our poster girl and Jakala's grandmother quickly agreed.  We also have a poster boy - Nathan, from Pontotoc, Mississippi.  Watch for more about him.
