The Smiths were unable to conceive children, and decided to use a surrogate
father to start their family. On the day the proxy father was to arrive,
Mr. Smith kissed his wife and said, "I'm off, the man should be here soon."
Half an hour later, just by chance, a door-to-door baby photographer rang
the doorbell, hoping to make a sale. "Good morning madam. I've come
to......"
"Oh, no need to explain. I've been expecting you," Mrs. Smith cut in.
"Really?" the photographer asked. "Well, good! I make a specialty in
babies," he boasted.
"That's what my husband and I had hoped. Please come in and have a seat"
she stated.
After a moment she asked, blushing, "Well, where do we start?"
Looking around, he said, "Leave everything to me. I usually try two in the
bathtub, one on the couch and perhaps a couple on the bed. Sometimes the
living room floor is fun too....you can really spread out!"
"Bathtub, living room floor? No wonder it didn't work for Harry and I," she
thought to herself.
"Well, madam, none of us can guarantee a good one every time. But if we try
several different positions, and I shoot from six or seven angles, I'm sure
you'll be pleased with the results," the photographer opined.
"My, my, that's very impressive; but, isn't that a strain on you," gasped
Mrs. Smith.
"Madam, in my line of work, a man must take his time. I'd love to be in and
out in five minutes, but you'd be disappointed with that, I'm sure," said
the photographer.
"Don't I know it," Mrs. Smith muttered.
The photographer opened his briefcase and pulled out a portfolio of his
baby pictures. "This was done on the top of a bus," he bragged.
"Oh my God!" Mrs. Smith exclaimed, tugging at her handkerchief.
"And these twins turned out exceptionally well, when you consider their
mother was so difficult to work with," he protested.
"She was difficult?" asked Mrs. Smith.
"Yes, I'm afraid so. I finally had to take her to the park to get the job
done right. People were crowding around four and five deep, pushing to get
a good look," he stated.
"Four and five deep?" asked Mrs. Smith, eyes widened in amazement.
"Yes," the photographer said. "And for more than three hours, too. The
mother was constantly squealing and yelling; I could hardly concentrate!
Then darkness approached, and I began to rush my shots. Finally, when the
squirrels began nibbling on my equipment, I just packed it all in," he
lamented.
Mrs. Smith leaned forward. "You mean they actually chewed on
your.....um...equipment?"
"That's right. Well, madam, if you're ready, I'll set up my tripod so that
we can get to work."
"Tripod?" she sheepishly asked.
"Oh yes, I have to use a tripod to rest my Canon on. It's much too big for
me to hold for very long. Madam? Madam? ..............Good Lord, she's
fainted!" he said in amazement!
