New Directions...

Many of you don't know this, but Julie is always on duty. If she's not shooting, she's putting albums together. If she's not doing that, she's doing something else to make sure she's the best for her clients. One of the things she does quite often is attend educational seminars. She is always learning new things, getting new ideas for products and getting guidance from the industry's best. These seminars help Julie to stay up to date on all the latest trends in the business. And now I get to learn too!

Julie and I attended a seminar on Monday. It was the first one I'd ever been to (and probably the millionth for Jules!) It was mostly about the business side of photography, so look for some new and exciting things from JE Hedges Photography in the coming months!

OH! And I have to tell you about this! If any of you have ever been to a Krystal restaurant in Columbus, you know that they are not known for their customer service. Well, Julie and I ran to Krystal during one of our breaks while we were at the seminar. We pulled up to order and the most pleasant voice comes through the speaker and says, "Good evening, welcome to Krystal! How can I help you?" We both did a double take. I know you should not be surprised to have someone be nice, but this was just crazy from a Krystal. When we get up to the window, we get the same kind of niceness. Our delicious cheese Krystals came quickly and we got a "You ladies have a nice evening. Thank you for choosing Krystal!" We were honestly shocked. If you're ever in Atlanta near the Holiday Inn off GA400, I suggest stopping by the Krystal that is right up the road!
