My biggest problem! Wind!

 People always ask me what the hardest part of photographing is and other than all the "business" things that I hate to do, it is hands down wind!  Check out my video here (I was actually really impressed with some of the images!  I really love them!) I can deal with cold, except when there are little ones that their faces turn red right away.  But I'm not usually doing pictures in the cold, so it doesn't come up much.  I can deal with the heat, it is hard on everyone, but I try to keep everyone in the shade as much as possible and with water we can do it for a short amount of time.  Rain and snow usually don't last that long and hats and umbrellas make for a memorable session.  But wind!  It can show up whenever it wants.  It can come in fast and leave just as fast.  It can be gusty and then we have to stand around and wait for the 3 second calm spot.  It can just blow and blow and blow so much so that we have to reschedule. ...
