VISITORS
Sometimes a prospective customer will wish to attend a sample of my work. I may ask if you will allow such a visitor to come to your booked session.
​
You are free to decline, of course. In the case of charitable appointments which I take on for no pay, I will usually expect to count on your kindness in this respect except where you have a specially sensitive clientele.
