[Mkguild] Group picture

[C. Matthias]

Oh, as far as Kacey goes, I found her price list 
and I think she's out of the range we are looking 
for too.  But the links should give folks a good 
sense of what a group shot can look like at the very least!

May He bless you and keep you in His grace and love,

Charles Matthias
