An apology and a thank you...

First off, I would just like to say thank you to everyone for your support of Thompson's Photography over the last few years. You all have made my life more special by including me in all of your important moments. That is why I also have to apologize. Starting immediately, I will no longer be offering sports photography. This is due to the fact that I refuse to raise my prices to suit the recreation departments demands for kickbacks. My final decision was made today upon receiving a letter from the remaining county recreation department that I was still doing photography for. Because my bid was not in suit with their demands for kickbacks, I did not get the bid for the next two years. I love doing sports along with weddings and portraits. But I don't think that it is fair to raise my prices when parents are already paying more than enough to see their children play the sports they love. That is why I kept my prices low. To help the parents, not the county. I hope that those of you who have used me in the past understand this. And keep in mind that if you want me to do your teams pictures, I can still do them, but I won't be offering to do them on a regular basis.
