So here we are. A month into 2011, and it’s still hard to believe 2010 is O V E R. It went fast, and it was busy. I took on more weddings than I anticipated, but they were each unique and beautiful in their own ways. I’m so honored to have been a part of so many weddings and to do what I truly love to do…Not to mention adding a few engagement sessions, family/baby shoots and a handful of day-after shoots as well. It was a good year. It was a GREAT YEAR. Thank you to all my amazing clients for making it great.
To cap off such an amazing year for me and my business, I wanted to throw in a little end-of-the-year contest. An “image of the year” contest. There are TWO ways to win. First, if you were a client of mine during 2010, you have the opportunity to win a beautiful, 16×20 mounted print! And if you’re not a client, that’s ok. You have the opportunity to win a $15 Starbucks (or Target if you’re not a coffee drinker) gift card just for voting in the contest. Votes are counted by actual comments, so you have to tell me WHY you are voting for the image. One little teeny, tiny stipulation is that you MUST be a fan on Facebook to win. Yes, I am totally bribing you. Click HERE to “like” my Facebook business page.
Here’s everything you need to know to enter:
- every session I shot during 2010 is represented here
- each individual can only leave one comment per image (it can just be that the picture is of your grandchild – that’s enough for me!)
- The corresponding number for each image is located ABOVE the photograph.
- the contest is open NOW and will last 2 weeks
- the winner of the print will have the most comments on an image from their session or wedding
- the winner of the gift card will be chosen at random from the comments linked to the winning image
- both winners will be announced on February 14, 2011
- you are allowed to comment on your own photograph(s)
- when leaving your comments, don’t forget to leave the category you are voting for as well as the image number!!!
And here are the images:

Engagement: #3 – I’m a sucker for any photos with that glowy, gorgeous lighting

Day After: #2 – Very fun!
Wedding #5 of course… The most incredible day and captured beautifully by an incredible photographer! It was just a glimpse of the happiness, peace, and love that we felt within just hours of being married.
BTW, can’t wait to have Kreutzer babies so you can capture equally sweet little moments of them too
I love weddings #5. Matt and Deanne are just precious!
I love the weddings! I love picture # 5, I think that you captured the sweet love that they have for each other! First time I saw all their pictures this was favorite one. Good Job!!!
#5 all the way. Why? Because the bride had the best Maid of Honor! Kidding…also because I remember the moment that picture was taken, and it was captured perfectly!
Wedding #5. This photo beautifully captures how you think you will feel on your wedding day.
I am voting for Wedding # 9.
I love how my brand new bride is looking so happy and lovingly at me. She is so beautiful!
Family Sessions: I love #6 because it captures such a sweet father/son moment. Engagement Sessions: #13 would have to be my favorite because for one, it’s such a great looking couple, and such a beautiful picture! Weddings: #20 has great lighting and two of the nicest people you’ll ever meet! Day After: #2 great job at capturing such a fun moment together for the new couple.
