Hi [daughter],
Could you let the photo person you are working with know how much I appreciate the work he has done on the family picture. He does fabulous work and he has been so patient with all the change request. You don’t get to work with someone who gives such great customer service very often.

I realize we have asked for lots of changes and have really appreciated his willingness to work with us .
