Picture day.. but the results are EPIC.
Mounties families, thank you for your patience and understanding during Picture Day!
As many of you experienced, we had some less-than-ideal weather conditions that resulted in unavoidable rain and lightning delays throughout the day. While we worked hard to have more than 160 athletes organized and scheduled as efficiently as possible, unfortunately, the weather was one thing we simply could not control.
What we could control was making sure that once photography resumed, the quality of our athletes’ photos was not sacrificed in an effort to make up lost time.
Each athlete was scheduled to receive three individual photos, and that remained the priority. Time was taken with each athlete to properly pose them, adjust equipment, fix hair or remove jewelry when necessary, and make sure families receive photographs worth purchasing.
Our youngest athletes naturally required a little more time and direction with posing, which added to the wait as the day progressed following the weather delay. Rather than rushing them through, we wanted every athlete to receive the same care and attention.
We know waiting is frustrating, especially with little ones, and we sincerely appreciate the families who showed patience and grace while everyone worked through circumstances beyond our control.
We couldn’t control the weather, but we could make sure the photos were worth the wait.
And we think this little sneak peek speaks for itself.
Thank you for supporting our athletes, our volunteers, and everyone who worked incredibly hard to make Mounties Picture Day happen.
