Playing catch-up and a GIVEAWAY :)


Contest is CLOSED.

And the winner is....




"I love contests the mean I get free Christmas Cards. I am in.


Robert Burnham


Congratulations Robert!!



Keep your eyes peeled for more giveaways soon guys.  :)













As many of you know, things have been beyond crazy around here.  I am so thankful to have such wonderful clients that pass my name along to everyone they know (and maybe get referral coupons in the mail for doing so--ha).  Not only am I smack in the middle of crazy holiday season and wrapping wedding season up, but I took on a book project. What was I thinking? Yeah, no idea.

Well, I teamed up with the awesomely talented Tricia Drake (visit her store here) to shoot images for her upcoming book "Welcoming Home Baby: The Handcrafted Way".  Tric makes the most ADORABLE hats, blankets, and baby wraps and this book gives you step-by-step instructions on how to knit them. They are just awesome (and I now have a great new collection to use on your babies)!  We've been working our tails off trying to get everything finished and we are FINALLY done. Whoo hoo! The book will be out in March and I know we are both very excited about it.

SO...in celebration of completing this huge project and to show my appreciation for how patient you all have been while I have fallen behind on getting your images to you--it's GIVEAWAY time!!


This is for current clients only:

Leave a comment on THIS blog post with your name and email address

I will randomly choose one winner on Friday, November 5 to win one set (25) of custom designed Christmas cards with the photos of your choice. Of course, they must be photos that I have taken.   ;)

AND I will throw in a 16 x 20 print of your favorite image to hang somewhere in your house--or give as a gift.


You guys are so wonderful. Thanks for letting me do what I love every day.



♥♥♥



And here is a Halloween shot of my family, because I can't post without a picture.
(That's an ewok, a vampire, and a couple of dorks)







Now get to commenting--you will have the most fantastic card ever and show everyone up. Well, except for me.
Ba ha ha ha.
