Giveaway: A Family Photoshoot

Giveaway Now Closed.

Can I tell you how nice it feels to have our annual family pictures/Christmas Card pic already checked off the to do list! Every year it feels like I am scrambling to get this done. Not this year.

Last week I was thrilled to have the uber-talented Ginnie J, photograph our little family. The photos turned out great - I love her use of light, and the candid shots she captured of Avery and Aiden. She did such a great job for us, and she wants to do the same for one of you. If you're located in Utah, or are willing to travel for a photoshoot that will make you look like a rockstar, then you are qualified to enter to win a family photo shoot with the darling Ginnie J.





Giveaway Details:
• A couple, family or child session (not extended family).
• 1 hour of shoot time on location, here in Utah.
• 15-20 edited full resolution images on CD with a copyright release.
* Photo shoot must occur before June, 2010.

Here Are The Giveaway Guidelines:
- You have 1 week to enter this giveaway (closes Monday, October 26th at 10 P.M.).
- Make a comment on THIS POST to enter.
- You can increase your chances and leave one additional comment for each of the following: blog, facebook or tweet (or Retweet "RT" my tweet right HERE) about this giveaway with a link to THIS POST (for a grand total of 4 comments).
- Anonymous comments will be ignored.
- The winner will be chosen via random.org and then announced on Tuesday, October 27th.

To learn more about the oh so talented Ginnie, you can check out her Photo Blog and read her interview with the lovely Marta, HERE.

So Fun, Thanks Ginnie!

I just stumbled across your blog and I LOVE it! I am blushing a little when I say this, but I was trying to figure out how to do glitter toes myself and have them look GOOD! So I googled it. Your blog on glitter toes in July was the #1. I found just what I need, and now I have spent an hour checking out your blog. So cute!!!
