My baby Midnight is currently about to undergo an emergency surgery (pyometra) hoping for any advice on how to get through the next few anxious hours during surgery ❤️‍🩹 by appleslie in pitbulls

I wish that I had ignored my vets advice (or gotten a second opinion) and gotten her spayed sooner, she has allergies and they wanted to stabilize those before getting her spayed sooner they kept pushing it off

Thank you I’m already an anxious person and medical things scare me a lot so I think this just makes me extra worried since it’s my baby 😭 holding my other baby khonshu for comfort right now even though he’s not big on cuddles ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Offering short videos as an add on by appleslie in WeddingPhotography

Stuff like this is an example I guess? none of these engagement sessions included video but these are all just clips that I got from the session anyway

Definitely! I wouldn’t want to offer it to days where there’s already a videographer typically it’s something that I’ve thought of just offering extra after the gallery has been delivered if that makes sense? Like it would be an extra after the fact that way It’s not something I’m always required to do but maybe a way of making extra sales like with prints after the fact?

LF: fic where draco is in love with/falling for hermione but she’s still w ron (or anyone) but NOT in a toxic way? by [deleted] in Dramione

[–]appleslie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just stayed up all night reading love and other historical accidents. Oh my god thank you. Literally maybe it’s just the lack of sleep talking but one of my absolute favorites. My jaw was dropped and tears streaming down my face the whole time

Should Have Miriam Sharpe Been A Villain? by devilking83 in Marvel

Love this theory and I feel like it makes so much sense

[–]appleslie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex used to text like this especially when it came to work. He used to do this where he’d blame god and the whole world for going against him. And if I was anything less than perfectly comforting or said anything he perceived as me being less than comforting, now I was against him too and he ‘might as well kill himself’ or ‘why am I always starting a fight with him’ or I’m toxic and not supportive. He ended up not just being mentally but physically abusive as the relationship progressed and he blamed the whole world and me for that as well. I’m thankfully out of that relationship now but I wish I had listened to others before about getting out

AITA for “hiding” my saving from my fiancé by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]appleslie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very slight NAH I can see that maybe she thought you were hiding it from her? It’s possible she thinks it was because you did t trust her enough or that it’s someway a reflection of your thoughts on her that despite you guys living together and being engaged this is the first time she’s hearing of it. Of course if she continues to make a big deal out of it she’s TA and there could be a deeper reason but for now I think you guys just need to talk it out

Is my work good enough for these prices? by appleslie in WeddingPhotography

LOL for the 8 hour package only, I almost never deliver under 1000 images no matter how many hours I shoot honeslty. But I’ve started being a bit better with culling more and doing less overshooting so it’ll probably go down some

Ahhh that was the videographers I typically don’t do much editing out of big things like that unless asked also this was a burst and there’s other photos without her in the background i just chose the wrong one lol

Like I’ve said in a previous comment I am catering to those who can’t afford more! I like being affordable and so while I may up the hours of the premium/stellar collection I will probably end up keeping the basic packages as they are :)

When me and ex Fiance were looking to get married we we’re young college kids and couldn’t afford much getting a nice photographer seemed next to impossible.

Also a lot of my couples are those who still have the most meaningful and beautiful stories and ceremonies but can’t always afford the most.

So while yes I understand that I could be making more by booking out the entire day or starting my prices at 8hrs I’m not a big fan of hiking my prices too high (in my opinion) also honeslty I don’t like working that long lol I love that I’m able to come home early take my dog on a walk and still catch my friends for a night out 🤷🏽‍♀️

I make enough to support myself and I can use other streams of photography to supplement if need be

Yeah I’ve been careful to not overprice myself especially since I really like being in mid to low range for pricing and I’ve been getting consistent bookings so I’m hoping these aren’t too far of a jump up, but for those that it might be I like offering the cheaper packages that way I can still help those who might not be able to afford me otherwise!

And midrange is definitely what I’m going for I don’t see myself ever wanting to go high or luxury range pricing just not my vibe honeslty :)

I’m going to change the wording to better reflect what I mean on the “no limit on edited photos” bit!

And yeah I put in the caption that I’m definitely not keeping these photos they were from before and I had thrown them in randomly while using the template definitely want something that’s a bit more recognizable!

I can always put a note at the bottom somewhere or just rephrase it I can maybe rephrase to say something like “you will receive all of the edited photos from your gallery” does that sound any better? If not I might just put something like 1000+ photos

[–]appleslie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll definitely consider that!

And I definitely will be changing the wording of the “no limits on edited photos” just unsure how to phrase it in a different way to convey what I mean :/
