Yep, we waited a long time and it WAS annoying. I seem to recall there was a family ahead of us with their dog, for gosh sakes! But after everybody went through getting all dressed up, I didn't just want to walk out. And had we done so, we wouldn't have a picture at all.
The reality is, I wouldn't remember the whole thing nearly so well if your dad had smiled, so I guess I should thank him. It also made it REALLY easy to resist buying additional copies. At the time I wondered why he decided to spoil the picture, though. I'm sure he was mad at me for dragging him there.
And all I could afford at that time was a cheap portrait. It was the best I could do.

thinking back, it was annoying to wait for so darn long to take the picture... wasn't it a free or super cheap picture or something?
also, i am standing on a stool, i wasn't that tall yet!
I think, from more recent conversations, Mom had a $10 coupon for the one picture... so yes, it was super cheap.
