    “I am writing to thank you for the lovely portrait of my beloved poodle Ella and I. For a long time, I have had such an aversion to the camera because I have always considered myself unphotogenic. However, I am glad that my children have talked me into getting this portrait done. Many thanks, you have just about cured me of my phobia… Well, at least until the next unflattering photograph taken by a less skilled photographer.” Linda Neo
